This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1844 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAP. XXI. THE CASTLE OF ALEPPO.--ITALIAN ENGINEER. EM1N-EL-FETWA.--MOSQUE-EL-ADELIEH.--PUBLIC LIBRARY. EDUCATION.--THE MUFTI. THE CADT. I Began my visits to the public edifices and institutions, accompanied by an excellent cicerone. The first object to which I turned my attention was the castle, which occupies the centre of the city, being built on a high oval hill, the sides of which are smoothed, rounded, and partly flagged, but in so monotonous a manner that, seen from some points, the castle of Aleppo is as unpicturesque as any that can be imagined: here is no profile of rugged rock, as at the castle of Edinburgh, which, in many other respects, is not unlike that of Aleppo. But what keep or donjon relique of the middle ages of Europe can equal the entrance to the castle of Aleppo? An enormous square tower, beautifully inlaid with a darkcoloured stone, d. Varabesque, rises in stern dignity over the moat, on entering which one sees the symmetrical contortions of two snakes adorning the gateway. But all the Saracenic grandeur leads to nothing. The interior of the castle presents the spectacle of a town in ruins: only two houses were habitable, one occupied by an Aga of the Janissary party and another by the commandant. The ordnance consisted of three old-fashioned twelve-pounders without carriages, and the garrison did not exceed a dozen men. The commandant was very polite, and produced his pipes and coffee, but there was a great deal of whispering between him and an Italian nondescript, who was presented to me as an officer of the corps of military engineers; who, if I might judge from the state of his uniform, had seen a great deal of most arduous service. On wishing the commandant a good morning this Archimedes took me to look at...

The Druzes are one of the smallest, least studied, and most esoteric religious communities in the Middle East. This is because the Druze teachings remain inaccessible not only to outsiders but also to uninitiated members within the Druze community itself. Furthermore, proselytizing_inducing someone to convert to one's own religious faith_has been prohibited since the establishment of the sect in the 11th century. In order to resist assimilation by the various empires and colonial powers that sought to dominate them_the Byzantines, various Arab dynasties, the Mamluks and Ottomans, the British and French, in addition to the nations that govern them_the Druzes disguise and conceal their beliefs. Therefore, not much is known by outsiders about the Druzes. This dictionary provides nearly 1,000 concise and informative cross-referenced A to Z entries on religious, political, and cultural themes, as well as entries on a number of major families and individuals (artists, writers, diplomats, and leaders) who have contributed to the Druze communities. This volume is also complemented with a chronology, an introductory essay, and a bibliography.
