| Beschreibung: | Includes bibliographical references and indexes pt. 1. Britain, Europe and the Near East, 1830-50 -- pt. 2. The Dead Sea and the Jordan Rift Valley : myth and research In the nineteenth century the Dead Sea and the Tigris-Euphrates river system had great political significance: the one as a possible gateway for a Russian invasion of Egypt, the other as a potentially faster route to India. This is the traditional explanation for the presence of the international powers in the region. This important new book questions this view. Through a study of two important projects of the time -- international efforts to determine the exact level of the Dead Sea, and Chesney's Euphrates Expedition to find a quicker route to India -- Professor Goren shows how other forces than the interests of empire, were involved. He reveals the important role played by private individuals and establishes a wealth of new connections between the key players; and he reveals for the first time an important Irish nexus. The resulting work adds an important new dimension to our existing understanding of this period |

Through a study of two important projects of the time -- international efforts to determine the exact level of the Dead Sea, and Chesney's Euphrates Expedition to find a quicker route to India -- Professor Goren shows how other forces than the interests of empire, were involved. He reveals the important role played by private individuals and establishes a wealth of new connections between the key players; and he reveals for the first time an important Irish nexus. The resulting work adds an important new dimension to our existing understanding of this period 1800 - 1899 fast Geschichte 1800-1900 Geschichte 1800-1900 gnd rswk-swf HISTORY / Middle East / Israel bisacsh Discoveries in geography fast Imperialism and science fast Geschichte Imperialism and science Dead Sea (Israel and Jordan) History 19th century Imperialismus (DE-588)4026651-5 gnd rswk-swf Erforschung (DE-588)4152745-8 gnd rswk-swf Naher Osten Euphrat-Tigris-Becken (DE-588)4343067-3 gnd rswk-swf Totes Meer (DE-588)4106540-2 gnd rswk-swf Totes Meer (DE-588)4106540-2 g Euphrat-Tigris-Becken (DE-588)4343067-3 g Erforschung (DE-588)4152745-8 s Imperialismus (DE-588)4026651-5 s Geschichte 1800-1900 z 1\p DE-604 Erscheint auch als Druck-Ausgabe, Hardcover 978-1-84885-496-3 https://doi.org/10.5040/9780755611058?locatt=label:secondary_bloomsburyCollections Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
