New English Paperback. Demy 8vo. (21 x 14 cm). In English. 132 p. The Cypriot mule corps in the First World War. This study aims to illustrate the complex situation of the Cypriot Mule Corps from the standpoint of Cypriots and to show that people can ignore their national and religious identities when they have to. Cypriot muleteers served in the British army in the Macedonian front during the First World War. Both Cypriot men and island mules were used in the war. Mules were used in the war due to their carrying ability under harsh geographical conditions. The British government utilized the existing economic problems in Cyprus to attract Cypriot support. For some Cypriots joining the war serving in the army was the only way to provide for the livelihood of their family. In fact, Turkish Cypriots participated in the Great War against the Ottoman Empire. Furthermore, there were differences in terms of religious creed between Greek Cypriots and the British: the Greek Cypriots were Orthodox while the British people were Protestant. Hence, both Greek Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots had some troubles about joining the Great War. Despite these differences, Greek and Turkish Cypriots set aside their national and religious feelings and were united in the same army to serve Great Britain. Another important aspect of the Cypriot Mule Corps lies in the fact that the Turkish Cypriots joined the British army not only against their former Sultan but also against their compatriots who migrated to Anatolia and were subsequently recruited to the Ottoman army.

NEW - Will be sent to you direct from the publisher. Translated from Greek by Donald E. Martin and and Soterios G Stavrou. Tetralogy of the Times is a powerful document capturing the mood of the Cypriot people, in Chekhovian sensibility fronm the years of their British colonial status to their present predicament. As the author points out"the shocking events of l955-1959 in Cyprus moved me as they moved other writers too, -to attempt to express the events and the climate of that era. The first section of the Tetralogy "Times immovable" portays the period before l955 when Cyprus was a British colony. it is followed by "times of difficulty" which canvasses the struggle of the Cypriot people for independence. The first years of independent Cyprus are captured in the third collection of stories called "Times of Affluence".It brings the story to l974 when the coup d'etat against Archbishop Makarios took place, an incident which gave Turkey the opportunity and excuse to invade Cyprus. The Turkish invasion and its consequences -political, social and moral- are dealt with in the fourth section "Times of Suffering" . 269p. Book
