Between the Greek revolt in 1830 and the fall of the Caliphate in 1924 a different kind of voice was heard that was both anti-Imperialist and pro-Islamic. Geoffrey Nash places David Urquhart's passionate belief in the ideal of municipal government in Turkey, W.S. Blunt's enthusiasm for the Egyptian reformers of the Azhar and Marmaduke Pickthall's advocacy of the cause of the Young Turks into their political and historical context and into the context of their writings."--Bloomsbury publishing. 606 $aAnti-imperialist movements$zGreat Britain$xHistory 606 $aBritish & Irish history$2BIC 607 $aMiddle East$xForeign public opinion, British$xHistory$y19th century 607 $aMiddle East$xForeign public opinion, British$xHistory$y20th century 615 0$aAnti-imperialist movements$xHistory. 615 7$aBritish & Irish history. 676 $a327.4'1'056'09034 700 $aNash$b Geoffrey$0288165 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910468159203321 996 $aFrom empire to orient$92113158 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04706nam 2200625Ia 450 001 9910778164803321 005 20230422045932.0 010 $a0-674-04364-2 024 7 $a10.4159/9780674043640 035 $a(CKB)1000000000786967 035 $a(StDuBDS)AH23050895 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000102303 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11109197 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000102303 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10048715 035 $a(PQKB)10255317 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3300481 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL3300481 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10318475 035 $a(OCoLC)923111959 035 $a(DE-B1597)574475 035 $a(DE-B1597)9780674043640 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000786967 100 $a19981110d1999 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 04$aThe American party battle$b[electronic resource] $eelection campaign pamphlets, 1828-1876$hVolume 1$i1828-1854 /$fedited and with an introduction by Joel H.

Political parties mapped the landscape of electoral and ideological warfare, constructing images of themselves and of their adversaries that resonate and echo the basic characteristics of America's then reigning sets of ideas. The nature of political controversy, as well as the substance of politics, is embedded in these party documents which both united and divided Americans. Unlike today's party platforms, these pamphlets explicated real issues and gave insight into the society at large. Andrew Jackson's Democrats, Millard Fillmore's Whigs, Abraham Lincoln's Republicans, and other, lesser-known parties are represented here. The pamphlets demonstrate how, for this fifty-year period, political parties were surrogates for American demands and values. Broad in scope, widely circulated, catalysts for heated debate over the decades, these pamphlets are important documents in the history of American politics. In an excellent introduction, Silbey teases out and elucidates the themes each party stressed and took as its own in its fight for the soul of the nation. 410 0$aJohn Harvard library. 606 $aPolitical parties$zUnited States$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aCampaign literature$zUnited States$xHistory$y19th century 607 $aUnited States$xPolitics and government$y19th century 615 0$aPolitical parties$xHistory 615 0$aCampaign literature$xHistory 676 $a324.97305 701 $aSilbey$b Joel H$0473564 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910778164803321 996 $aThe American party battle$93693295 997 $aUNINA
