Free Download Gordon T. Stewart, "Journeys to Empire" English | ISBN: 0521735688 | 2009 | 298 pages | PDF | 13 MB This fascinating study of two British missions to Tibet in 1774 and 1904 provides a unique perspective on the relationship between the Enlightenment and European colonialism. Gordon Stewart compares and contrasts the Enlightenment era mission led by George Bogle and the Edwardian mission of Francis Younghusband as they crossed the Himalayas into Tibet. Through the British agents' diaries, reports, and letters and by exploring their relationships with Indians, Bhutanese and Tibetans, Stewart is able to trace the shifting ideologies, economic interests and political agendas that lay behind British empire-building from the late eighteenth century to the early twentieth century. This compelling account sheds new light on the changing nature of British imperialism, on power and intimacy in the encounter between East and West, and on the relationship of history and memory.

Von nun an stehen ihm alle Türen offen, was der junge Italiener zu nutzen weiß. Er gewinnt die Gunst des Ersten Ministers in Frankreich, Kardinal Richelieu, dessen Posten er 1642 übernimmt und bis zu seinem Tod 1661 innehat. Mazarin fungiert als Erzieher Ludwigs XIV. Auch nachdem Ludwig XIV. 1654 gekrönt wird, bleibt Mazarin im Amt. Nebenbei häuft er enormen privaten Reichtum an 36 600 000 Livres. Seine Geschäftsidee ist ebenso simpel wie brillant: Er entscheidet kraft seines Amtes über die Militäraktionen Frankreichs und verkauft dem Staat anschließend alles, was zur Kriegsführung nötig ist. Uwe Schultz legt mit diesem Buch die erste Biografie einer schillernden Figur vor.

Free Download Ken Kotani - Japanese Intelligence in World War II Osprey Publishing | 2009 | ISBN: 1846034256 | English | 252 pages | PDF | 67.61 MB In the eyes of history, Japanese intelligence in World War II has fared very poorly. However, these historians have most often concentrated on the later years of the war, when Japan was fighting a multi-front war against numerous opponents. In this groundbreaking new study, Japanese scholar Ken Kotani re-examines the Japanese Intelligence department, beginning with the early phase of the war. He points out that without the intelligence gathered by the Japanese Army and Navy they would have been unable to achieve their long string of victories against the forces of Russia, China, and Great Britain. Notable in these early campaigns were the successful strikes against both Singapore and Pearl Harbor.

This book is a pleasure for anyone wanting to understand the life of one of our great novelists.  Free Download Istanbul: A History By David Jacobs 2015 | 168 Pages | ISBN: 1541168925 | EPUB | 1 MB For centuries, the inlet called the Golden Horn and the city on the hills overlooking it were situated in the middle of the known world. To the south, through the Dardanelles and the Aegean Sea, lay the Mediterranean, around which the Greek, Roman, Persian, and Arab worlds revolved. To the north, through the Bosporus, lay the Black Sea, with its Russian and eastern European coastline. And across the narrow Bosporus was Asia Minor, bridge to the Orient. Because of its strategic location, the city on the Golden Horn was coveted by a succession of different peoples. But even though it frequently was under siege, even though control of it often changed hands, and even though, indeed, it was conquered and leveled more than once, the city proved to be virtually immortal. Founded nearly twenty-seven centuries ago as the Greek colony of Byzantium, the city was harassed by the barbaric Thracians, attacked by the Persians, vied for by the Athenians and Spartans. Weakened and dispirited, its citizens finally were forced to seek the protection of Rome, and the city became little more than a Roman outpost. Then, in the fourth century, the Roman Emperor Constantine I decided to build his capital on the site. It was in the new city of Constantinople that ancient Greco-Roman culture was married to Eastern Orthodox Christianity and that Western civilization became Christian civilization. As the center of the vast Byzantine Empire, the city was one of the richest and most important on earth. But because of its wealth, it was sacked by the Crusaders in 1204. And because of its strategic location, it was conquered by the Ottoman Turks in 1453. Since then, as the city of Istanbul, it has remained an international metropolis, a city of East and West, a city whose great paintings, mosaics, statuary, and architecture reflect the many cultures that have been centered there and the many ages the city has survived. Here is its story. |
