Beskrivelse af From Berlin To Bagdad And Babylon (1922)
From Berlin to Bagdad and Babylon is a travelogue written by John Augustine Zahm, an American Catholic priest and scientist, in 1922. The book chronicles his journey from Berlin, Germany, through the Middle East, including stops in Turkey, Palestine, Iraq, and Iran. Zahm's travels were made during a time of great political and social upheaval in the region, as the Ottoman Empire was collapsing and the British were exerting their influence. Zahm's observations are wide-ranging, covering topics such as the history and culture of the places he visits, the people he meets, and the natural beauty of the landscapes. He provides detailed descriptions of the architecture, art, and religious practices of the various regions he passes through, as well as his own thoughts on the political situation. Throughout the book, Zahm reflects on the role of religion in the Middle East, particularly the relationship between Islam and Christianity. He also discusses the impact of Western colonialism on the region and the challenges faced by the various ethnic and religious groups. From Berlin to Bagdad and Babylon offers a fascinating glimpse into the Middle East during a time of significant change and upheaval. Zahm's writing is engaging and informative, and his observations provide valuable insights into the history and culture of the region.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
