Unease has marked relations between modern travel writers and the people of Cyprus. Visitors like Lawrence Durrell, Colin Thubron, Christopher Hitchens and Sebastian Junger have registered the effects of political strife on both the people of the island and those who visit from abroad. Their accounts demonstrate how geopolitical realities--such as colonization, insurgency, inter-communal warfare, and now decades of militarized 'peace'--shape the narrating self and its relations to others. Here, Jim Bowman assesses the effects of Cypriot history on writings about the island through an analysis of memoirs, travelogues, political journalism, guide books and ethnographies. Through this examination of popular texts, Bowman shows how a western and politicized image of Cyprus has been created, increasingly divorced from the realities experienced by the local population. Narratives of Cyprus is an important reassessment of Cyprus' place in British culture, and will be of interest to scholars and students of Anthropology, English Literature and Ethnographic Studies.

Gender in Ancient Cyprus examines some of the fundamental facets of gender as they intersect with the dynamics of social, political, and economic change in Cyprus, beginning with the earliest traces of human habitation on the island to the final phases of the Bronze Age. The book closely analyzes gender as it relates to the domestic space, technology and labor, ritual and social identity, and the roles of children, as well as the practices of modern day Near Eastern archaeology and the roles of women in it.

This book contains untold stories from both parts of Cyprus, stories from both sides of the "Green Line" dividing the island, i.e. stories witnessed by Turkish Cypriots and Greek Cypriots. The stories speak about missing persons and mass graves, about human rights abuses, about how "ethnic conflict" in the making can create "monsters" out of "normal" human beings...An alternative voice tells us how the "Cyprus conflict" has affected the human hearts, whether they are Greek Cypriot or Turkish Cypriot and describes the underlying worries, the concerns of Cypriots, and the deep wounds that need a process of healing.The book shows us the topography of the human heart from a Mediterranean island through the eyes of a woman writer, breathing life into the silenced voices, whom you have not heard before. At the same time this book is a source book of oral history containing a wealth of information not to be found elsewhere. It is a must for every historian and political scientist studying the history of Cyprus and it is warmly recommended to all those diplomats and politicians who are trying to find solutions for this eternal conflict.The author is a Cypriot journalist writing for YENIDUZEN newspaper in the northern part of the island and ALITHIA newspaper in the southern part of Cyprus. These articles were published in the Sunday edition of the Greek Cypriot newspaper ALITHIA in 2004.

The island of Cyprus has been bitterly divided for more than four decades. One of the most divisive elements of the Cyprus conflict is the writing of its history, a history called on by both communities to justify and explain their own notions of justice. While for Greek Cypriots the history of Cyprus begins with ancient Greece, for the Turkish Cypriot community the history of the island begins with the Ottoman conquest of 1571. The singular narratives both sides often employ to tell the story of the island are, as this volume argues, a means of continuing the battle which has torn the island apart, and an obstacle to resolution. Cyprus and the Politics of Memory re-orientates history-writing on Cyprus from a tool of division to a form of dialogue, and explores a way forward for the future of conflict resolution in the region.

This book explores the meaning of home for Cypriot refugees living in London since their island was torn apart by war.
