(Excerpt from Researches in the Highlands of Turkey, Vol. ...)

Excerpt from Researches in the Highlands of Turkey, Vol. 1 of 2: Including Visits to Mounts Ida, Athos, Olympus, and Pelion, to the Mirdite Albanians, and Other Remote Tribes The journeys, of which an account is given in these volumes, were made in the summers of 1853, 1861, and 1865. The first of these in order of time has been placed last in order of narration, as it is best suited to supplement the information given in the other two. It has been my endeavour to compress what I have to say into a moderately narrow compass, excluding for the most part matters merely personal, together with the ordinary features of Eastern life and daily incidents of travel, with which most persons are by this time acquainted. At the same time I have discussed, to the best of my ability, the various questions-historical, antiquarian, and topographical - which such a tour naturally suggests, and have illustrated them by such information as I have been able to obtain. Turkey is at present the least known of all the countries of Europe, yet few contain so much to reward the trouble of investigation.

We found Salonica in great excitement. The cholera, which during the early part of this summer had seized, one after another, on all the great ports of Turkey, beginning from A lexandria, and was now raging frightfully at Smyrna, Constantinople, and the Dardanelles, had made its appearance in the lazzaretto which was consequently full of dying persons. As yet it had not attacked the town, and the quarantine station was at some distance off at the head of the harbour; but the inhabitants were naturally afraid that it would soon be amongst them, unless the strictest prohibitive regulations were observed. The day after our arrival a great scene occurred in consequence of the arrival of a steamer from Constantinople with several dead on board, and more VOL. IT.

(This book was originally published prior to 1923, and rep...)

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

The Church and the Eastern Empire

(THE circumstances under which the Eastern Roman Empire wa...)

THE circumstances under which the Eastern Roman Empire was founded permanently affected both that empire itself and the Church which was associated with it. Before the time of Constantine the Great the impossibility of satisfactorily administering the affairs of the civilised world from a single centre of government had been sufficiently proved; and the establishment of a New Rome, as the head of the eastern portion of the empire, though it was anyhow a stroke of genius, was an arrangement towards which previous events, such as the residence of Diocletian at Nicomedia, seemed to be pointing. But the immediate and determining cause of this change was the conversion of Constantine to Christianity.
