Popis knihy:

Excerpt: YOUNGEST MEMBER OF THE EUROPEAN FAMILY: OR, A RESIDENCE IN BELGRADE, AND TRAVELS IN THE HIGHLANDS AND WOODLANDS OF THE INTERIOR, DURING THE YEARS 1843 AND 1844. BY ANDREW ARCHIBALD PATON, ESQ. AUTHOR OF ""THE MODERN SYRIANS."" ""Les hommes croient en gnral connatre suffisamment l'Empire Ottoman pour peu qu'ils aient lu l'norme compilation que le savant M. de Hammer a publie ... mais en dehors de ce mouvement central il y a la vie intrieure de province, dont le tableau tout entier reste faire."" LONDON: LONGMAN, BROWN, GREEN, AND LONGMANS, PATERNOSTER ROW. 1845. PREFACE. The narrative and descriptive portion of this work speaks for itself. In the historical part I have consulted with advantage Von Engel's ""History of Servia,"" Rank's ""Servian Revolution,"" Possart's ""Servia,"" and Ami Bou's ""Turquie d'Europe,"" but took the precaution of submitting the facts selected to the censorship of those on the spot best able to test their accuracy. For this service, I owe a debt of acknowledgment to M. Hadschitch, the framer of the Servian code; M. Marinovitch, Secretary of the Senate; and Professor John Shafarik, whose lectures on Slaavic history, literature, and antiquities, have obtained unanimous applause. CONTENTS. PAGE CHAPTER 1.
