More than a thousand volunteers set out to fight for the cause. William St Clair meticulously researched and highly readable account of their aspirations and experiences was hailed as definitive when it was first published. Long out of print, it remains the standard account of the Philhellenic movement and essential reading for any students of the Greek War of Independence, Byron, and European Romanticism. This completely revised edition includes a new introduction by Roderick Beaton, an updated bibliography and many new illustrations"--Publisher's description Geschichte gnd rswk-swf HISTORY Social History HISTORY Military participation Foreign Philhellenism Griechischer Unabhängigkeitskrieg (DE-588)4158172-6 gnd rswk-swf Philhellenismus (DE-588)4174265-5 gnd rswk-swf Greek History History Philhellenes Romanticism War War of Independence Lord Byron Greece 1821-1829 Greece / History / War of Independence, 1821-1829 / Participation, Foreign Electronic books Griechischer Unabhängigkeitskrieg (DE-588)4158172-6 s Philhellenismus (DE-588)4174265-5 s Geschichte z DE-604 Beaton, Roderick Sonstige oth Hardback version 9781906924010 Papaerback version 9781906924003 https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&AN=578413 Verlag kostenfrei Volltext |
