Title The Balkan reconquista and Turkey's forgotten refugee crisis / William H. Holt Author Holt, W. V., 1947- (Author) Publication Salt Lake City : The University of Utah Press, [2019] Copyright notice date ©2019 Scope x, 328 stran : ilustrace, portréty ; 24 cm Country United States Language English Note Obsahuje bibliografii, bibliografické odkazy a rejstřík Annotation "During the Russo-Ottoman War of 1877–1878, Russian troops, Cossack auxiliaries, and local Bulgarians participated in what today would be called ethnic cleansing. Tensions in the Balkans between Christians and Muslims ended in disaster when hundreds of thousands of Muslims were massacred, raped, and forced to flee from Bulgaria to Turkey as their villages were sacked and their homes destroyed. This book tells the story of a people and moment in time that has largely been neglected in modern Turkish and Balkan memory. Holt uncovers the reasons for this mass forgetting, finding context both within the development of the modern Turkish state and the workings of collective memory. Bringing together a wide array of eyewitness accounts, the book provides unprecedented detail on the plight of the Muslim refugees in their flight from Bulgaria, in Istanbul, and in their resettlement in Anatolia." --EBSCOhost Výrazy tezauru válka * válka za nezávislost * muslim * uprchlík * emigrace * válečný zločin * Balkán * Turecko * Carské Rusko (-1917) * 19. století Klasifikační znaky 0816 - Mezinárodní rovnováha 2821 - Sociální rámec 2811 - Migrace 1236 - Práva a svobody ISBN 978-1-60781-695-9 Copy count 1, currently available 1 URL The Balkan reconquista and Turkey's forgotten refugee crisis (plný text / e-knihovna EBSCO) Document kind Monografie
