br. Per non dimenticare. Ma allo stesso tempo per raccontare una storia di speranza. Gianbattista Rigoni Stern narra come si è coinvolto in prima persona nella transumanza della pace, un progetto di cooperazione internazionale, che ha fatto rinascere il piccolo allevamento domestico nelle campagne di Srebrenica, tristemente famosa per lo spaventoso massacro di civili inermi che ebbe luogo nel luglio 1995.

Ahvâl-i gazavât der diyâr-i Bosna: The Bosnian frontier at wars of 1736-1739 Ottoman-Russo-Austro: A case study on Ömer Bosnavi's work. The book was accepted by YÖK as Master thesis in 2014 and published as book firstly by Lambert Press in January, 2016. After acceptance of thesis in 2014, a few studies published but Ömer Bosnavi's work was firstly published by me. Therefore first original transcription involve in that book. That study aims to offer an outline of the Ottoman-Russo-Austro War in 1736-1739 and also attempts to portray the Bosnia Frontier, an important subregion the Austro-Ottoman war. To provide a more detailed understanding of the Bosnian frontier, the first transcription of Ömer of Novi's "Ahval-i Gazavat Der Diyar-i Bosna" was included as a primary source in the study. While the Ottoman Empire was engaged in the Persian Wars in the 1730s, both Austrian and Russian Empires pursued a hostile policy the Ottoman Empire in accordance with the terms of a treaty of alliance in 1726. Upon the invasion of Crimea by Russians, the Ottomans declared a war against Russia in 1736. After Austria completed the preparations of the war, and joined in the battle on the side of Russia in 1737. In the beginning of the war, Austrians occupied the fortress of Nish and organized campaigns in such regions as Wallachia, Vidin, and Bosnia. But the fortress of Nish was successfully taken back by the Ottomans, yet unsuccessful campaigns in the Vidin and Wallachia, and especially in Bosnia after the defeat of Hildburghasuen by the Governor of Bosnia Hekimoglu Ali Pasha in the Battle of Banja Luka changed the course of the war. Following the siege of Belgrade by Ivaz Pasha, the grand vizier, and a positive consequence of joining of Hekimoglu in the siecle, Austria was ultimately forced to make peace in 1739.

br. Sarajevo, Bosnia Erzegovina. Un pezzetto della nostra Europa. Da anni torniamo sulle strade che abbiamo attraversato prima, durante e dopo la guerra: lo abbiamo fatto insieme a persone diverse, che con noi hanno condiviso esperienze e incontri, insieme a tanti volontari oppure ad amici e amiche a cui abbiamo cercato di raccontare la nostra passione per un paese, la Bosnia Erzegovina, che ha in Sarajevo uno dei suoi gioielli, anche se non l'unico. Sentiamo la necessità di non essere sole in questo percorso: abbiamo scelto di farci accompagnare dalle parole di scrittori, fotografi, poeti, attrici e cantautori, oltre che giornalisti e volontari. Raccontiamo e lasciamo che altri ci raccontino ciò che hanno visto e capito di questi luoghi, pensando a chi si avvicina per la prima volta alla città di Sarajevo e attraverso essa alla storia recente dei Balcani. Che è anche la nostra storia di cittadini europei.

Dal laboratorio cosmopolita di Sarajevo al ponte di Mostar, fino alle ferite di Srebrenica, attraversando villaggi meno noti come Stolac in Erzegovina, Bihac nella Bosnia occidentale e Banja Luka, capoluogo della Republika Srpska: "Bosnia-Erzegovina. Viaggio on the road nel cuore dei Balcani" è il racconto di cinque viaggi, arricchiti da suggestioni letterarie, alla scoperta di una decina di luoghi di uno dei Paesi più controversi alle porte dell’Europa. Avvolte in un tempo che fatica a chiudere i conti con il tragico passato ma che prova a inventarsi una prospettiva di futuro, le città e i villaggi della Bosnia-Erzegovina, sospesi tra Oriente e Occidente, hanno molto da offrire ai viaggiatori curiosi di scoprire un territorio selvatico e generoso, informale e genuino, da cui far ritorno con molte più domande rispetto a quelle con cui si era partiti. Autori: Simonetta Di Zanutto.

Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) Paperback. Chipped on margins. Some owner notes. Otherwise a good copy. Roy. 8vo. (24 x 18 cm). In Ottoman script. 32 p. This rare book includes the royal travel of Sultan Abdülmecid in 1262 AH [1846 AD] to Roumelia. From Edirne, Abdülmecid proceeded to Eski Zagra (Stara Zagora), Kizanlik (Kazanluk), Gabrova (Gabrovo), Tirnova (Turnovo), Rusçuk (Ruse), Silistre (Silistra), and Varna. The route of the 1846 tour followed closely, except in reverse order, Mahmud II's tour of 1837. According to witness accounts, along the way, the sultan was greeted everywhere with poetic recitations and songs of praise and prayer, both in Ottoman and Bulgarian. The pride of place among welcoming parties invariably fell on students, of all creeds, most clad in white uniforms, some in solemn church-going attire, with flowers and green branches in their hands. At every stop, ceremonial cannon salvos were fired during the day and elaborate firework illuminations were performed at night. In the town of Kizanlik, known then as now for the most fragrant roses and the best rose oil, the sultan's visit coincided, possibly by design, with the rose harvesting season. So the locals sprinkled rose water and poured rose oil before the sultan's cavalcade. According to Hristo Stambolski, in the three days of the sultan's stay in town, no rose harvesting was done so that the whole area would be exquisitely scented in his honor. For his part, the sultan had doctors vaccinate all children against smallpox in public before sending each one off with a small gift of money. Even people with rare diseases were, on occasion, summoned to the sultan's presence so his doctors could cure them. The sublime visit caused the locals, who were unaccustomed to direct contact with the center of power, quite a stir. The most detailed account, albeit from a hostile source, relates the sultan's visit to Rusçuk, which, at four days, may have also been the longest. According to Nayden Gerov, the greeting ceremonies proceeded on a communal basis, with the Jews being placed closest to the town walls, next to them the Armenians, then the Bulgarians, and finally, the Muslims, situated the farthest from town, yet being the first to see and welcome the sultan. As the sultan approached, each group of youngsters would in turn sing for him, everyone else bowing profusely. Based on Gerov's description, it seems that Abdülmecid was dressed in a slightly more luxurious fashion than during state ceremonies in Istanbul. ((Source: Sultan Abdülmecid's Tour of Rumelia and the Trope of Love by Stephanov). The sultan began to travel by the way of the gate of Yedikule in Istanbul in May 6, 1846. He followed the way of Ayastefanos, Silivri, Çorlu, Burgaz, Edirne, Zagra-i Atik, Kizanli, Trnova, Rusçuk, Silistre, Rusçuk, Shumnu, and Varna and came back to Istanbul by way of the sea on June 14, 1846. During this travel, the Sultan listened to people's problems and ordered the authorities to be solved with those problems. He received successful military and administrative authorities in settlements on the way of travel and rewarded them. He also received the governors of Serbia, Eflak and Bogdan, and the representatives of foreign states. With this travel, the Sultan aimed to strengthen the connection to the center of people and administrators in provinces. Özege 17910. First Edition.
