Description
1848 History of Servia SERBIAN REVOLUTION Leopold Ranke Christianity Islam MAP
“A History of Servia, and the Servian Revolution” by Leopold von Ranke, translated by Mrs. Alexander Kerr (Louisa Hay Kerr), provides an in-depth look at the history and struggle for independence of Servia (Serbia). Positioned between Turkey and Austria, Servia is depicted as a battleground between European civilization and Oriental despotism due to its Christian and Muslim demographics. Ranke meticulously documents Servias path from a kingdom to a Turkish province, to a principality under Georgewitsch, symbolizing the fight of Eastern European states against Turkish rule. Ranke emphasizes the need for foreign intervention in promoting education and religious freedom among the Christian population, while critiquing the oppressive impacts of Turkish rule on the region.
This scarce 1848 edition is highly rare and includes the oft-extracted map of Serbia.
