Octavos. xciii 407; vi i 797. 8.5" x 6.25" HISTORY OF NEW FRANCE FOR THE TWENTIETH-CENTURY Fearing early North American history would slip from the minds of twentieth-century Americans librarian Rueben Gold Thwaites undertook the project of republishing critical accounts including Louis-Armand de Lom d'Arce's writings on New France. The Baron de Lahontan 1666-1715 originally traveled to the New World to campaign against the Iroquois on Lake Ontario but quickly took interest in nearby tribes. Widely considered the best seventeenth-century record of the French colonies Lahontan turned European curiosity toward natives as he dedicated the second volume of New Voyages to North-America to exploring their customs. His famous fictional account of the philosophy of "primitive" life fueled Voltaire and Jonathan Swift's own imaginations as the 1703 first edition was translated into English the same year. Thwaites' edition reprints this first English translation expanded to include his new introduction notes and index. Beautifully rebound this copy features international law attorney Charles Cheney Hyde's laid-in bookplate. A. C. McClurg & Co unknown

1919réf. 054769Konstantinoupolie Constantinople: E. Vasileiadou 1919. Soft cover. Good. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Original booklet. Cr. 8vo. 20 x 14 cm. In Greek Modern. 8 p. Heavily stains on pages tear on lower spine and lower right cover staple rusted. Fair copy. Extremely rare pamphlet of the regulations of "the Maronite Brotherhood or Enosis" which consists of 27 articles in modern Greek. The Maronites constitute a Christian group whose members adhere to the Syriac Maronite Church with the largest population around Mount Lebanon in Lebanon. The Maronite Church is an Eastern Catholic sui iuris particular church which is in full communion with the Pope and the Catholic Church with the right of self-governance under the Code of Canons of the Eastern Churches one of more than a dozen individual churches which are in full communion with the Holy See. The Maronites derive their name from the Syriac Christian Saint Maron some of whose followers migrated to the area of Mount Lebanon from their previous place of residence which was located around the area of Antioch and established the nucleus for the Syriac Maronite Church. Saint Maron sent Saint Abraham often referred to as the Apostle of Lebanon to convert the non-Christian native population to Maronite Christianity. The name of the Adonis River was changed to Abraham's river by the inhabitants after Saint Abraham preached there. Mass emigration to the Americas at the outset of the 20th century due to famine mainly resulting from Ottoman blockades and confiscations during World War I which killed an estimated one third to one half of the population during the Lebanese Civil War between 1975-1990 and the low fertility rate greatly decreased their numbers in the Levant. Maronites today form more than one-quarter of the total population in the Republic of Lebanon. All Lebanese presidents have been Maronites as part of a tradition that persists as part of the National Pact by which the Prime Minister has historically been a Sunni Muslim and the Speaker of the National Assembly has historically been a Shi'i Muslim. Enosis is the movement of various Greek communities that live outside Greece for incorporation of the regions they inhabit into the Greek state. Widely known is the case of the Greek-Cypriots for the union of Cyprus into Greece. The idea of enosis is related to the Megali Idea an irredentist concept of a Greek state which dominated Greek politics following the creation of the modern Greek state in 1830. The Megali Idea was a project which called for the annexation of all ethnic Greek lands parts of which had participated in the Greek War of Independence in the 1820s but were unsuccessful and remained under foreign rule. In 1821 several parts of Western Thrace rebelled against Ottoman rule participating in the Greek War of Independence. During the Balkan Wars Western Thrace was occupied by Bulgarian troops and in 1913 Bulgaria gained Western Thrace under the terms of the Treaty of Bucharest. Following World War I Western Thrace was withdrawn from Bulgaria under the terms of the 1919 Treaty of Neuilly and put temporarily under Allied management before being given to Greece at the San Remo conference in 1920. Following the conclusion of World War I Greece began the occupation of Smyrna and surrounding areas of Western Anatolia in 1919 at the invitation of the victorious Allies of World War I particularly David Lloyd George the British Prime Minister. The occupation was given official status in the 1920 Treaty of Sèvres with Greece being awarded most of Eastern Thrace and a mandate to govern Smyrna and its hinterland. Smyrna was declared a protectorate in 1922. However the attempted Enosis failed when the new Turkish Republic prevailed in the resulting Greco-Turkish War of 1919-1922 after which most Anatolian Christians who had not already fled during the war were forced to relocate to Greece in the 1923 population exchange treaty executed between Greece and Turkey.
