1945191029Baghdad: Iraqi Army Press c.1945. for the benefit of the Arabic language First edition with over 12000 words printed under the auspices of the Lexicon Committee of the Iraqi Ministry of Defence. The first and second world wars were catalysers for the sharp increase in the production of new Arabic glossaries and dictionaries for officers and soldiers stationed in the Middle East. In the early 1940s special attention was paid to technical dictionaries issued by governments and ministries rather than colloquial phrasebooks produced for individuals aiming at translation consistency and standardization. The dictionary was printed "to collect collate and preserve.the words employed by the late Prof. Abdul-Masih Wazir in his numerous translations of English military publications". Wazir was director of the translation department of the Iraqi Ministry of Defence in 1923-43. It also provided "an easy means of reference for the use of the translators of English military writings". The loose-leaf format was designed to facilitate revision. Octavo 160 x 105 mm. Text in Arabic and English. Issued as 21 pamphlets numbered 1-18 and 18A-20 roughly one per alphabet letter. Original brown cloth yellow stamped paper boards bootlace stitching. Extremities a little rubbed small paper loss on lower outer corner of rear cover contents toned but clean: a very good copy. R. Mairs Arabic Dialogues 2025. hardcover
1917178262Basrah: The Basrah Times 1917. Empire and Pan-Arabism Two leaves from the first and only issue of the Basrah Times 20 March 1917 printing Sir Frederick Stanley Maude's appeal to the people of Baghdad province issued nine days after the British capture of the city. The proclamation marks a turning point in the First World War exemplifies imperial rhetoric and foreshadows the tensions between colonial authority and national aspiration that shaped the following decade in Iraq. Although Basrah fell in November 1914 Baghdad was secured only after a further two and a half years of campaigning. Maude drove the advance restoring supply lines and winning successive engagements at Hayy Dahra and Kut before the final assault. The proclamation presents the British not as conquerors but as liberators promising renewal after centuries of foreign rule and invoking the recent success of the Arab Revolt under Sharif Hussein as a model of independence and unity. Yet this balance between nationalist promise and imperial control proved unstable: the post-war Mandate endured only until the revolt of 1920 forced political transition culminating in Faisal's election as king in 1921. Two sheets each approximately 440 x 285 mm laid down on thick card framed and glazed. Text in English and Arabic. Sheets toned and with creases from old folds minor foxing a few short tears one small hole to centre of one sheet affecting one letter: a very good set. unknown
