  • Alexander Svoboda 1897 Note
    CHAPTER NOTES Chapter Notes Chapter 1 Departure From Baghdad and Farewells ﺩﺍﻟﺴﻔﺮ ﻣﻦ ﺑﻐﺪﺍ ﻭﺍ ﻟﻤﻮﺍﺩﻋﺔ page 002 1. "Thirteenth of the month" Alexander is mistaken about the date, Wednesday was the 14th of the month. 2. Mule litter: (taḫterewān) From the Persian taḫt-e revān (taḫt meaning seat or throne, revān meaning moving). It was commonly used in Iraq, sometimes in the abbreviated form taḫt. In the English diary of the return journal, Alexander used the term teḫtersin, for which we have been unable to find any references. 3. Balioz: The word Balioz was originally the Turkish form of the title of the Baglio, the Venetian representative to the Ottoman court. In later years the word 'Balioz' became a vulgar term for any foreign consul. The British Consulate or Residency in Baghdad was commonly known among the inhabitants there as "the house of the Balioz". Here the term refers to the British Consul-General. 4. Colonel Edward Mockler: The British Consul General in Baghdad from 1892 to 1897, when he was replaced by Colonel William Loch and journeyed overland to Cairo with Alexander Richard Svoboda and his parents. Born in 1839, he served in several positions in the British Army in India and the Middle East. He was also a scholar and linguist. For more information, See: http://courses.washington.edu/otap/svobodapedia/index.php?title=Edward_Mockler) the Edward Mockler page in the Svobodapedia. 5. al-Dayr: An abbreviation commonly used by the diarist for the town Dayr al-Zawr. 6. Kasperkhan: Fathallah (Fettohi) Kasperkhan was born around 1819 and married some time before 1862 to Sophie-Elizabeth Svoboda (Alexander's Aunt Eliza).

All sources of information used in the thesis have been acknowledged. Brno, 2011 Signature iii I dedicate this work to the spirit of my father… He is the reason of much of how I am and what I am doing now. iv Abstract Studies in space syntax and cognition have shown consistent statistical relationship between configurational properties of space layouts and people’s spatial cognition (the ability to recall and form a map of space). However, these studies stress the aspect of spatial cognition that is based on the layout and quality of environment and say nothing about the view that considers the cognitive mapping as a process that is culturally constrained and results in the filtering of messages from the environment in which people live, this means we may have different cognitive mapping outcomes based on people’s values and considerations.

  • Pilgrimage in Syria 4 Days
    Pilgrimage in Syria 4 Days Day 1: Arrival Arrival to airport Meet and assist and transfer to Hotel Dinner and overnight Day 2: Full day Damascus Damascus is mentioned in Genesis 14:15 as existing at the time of the War of the Kings Nicolaus of Damascus, in the fourth book of his History, says thus: "Abraham reigned at Damascus”. According to the New Testament, Saint Paul was on the road to Damascus when he received a vision of Jesus, and as a result accepted him as the Messiah. The Damascus Straight Street (referred to in the conversion of St. Paul in Acts 9:11), also known as the Via Recta, was the decumanus of Roman Damascus, and extended for over 1,500 meters (4,900 ft). Today, it consists of the street of Bab Sharqi and the Souk Medhat Pasha. The House of Saint Ananias (also called Chapel of Saint Ananias) is the ancient alleged house of Saint Ananias, in the old Christian quarter. It is said by some to be the house where Ananias baptized Saul. The Chapel of Saint Paul is a modern stone chapel in Damascus that incorporates materials from the Bab Kisan, the ancient city gate through which Paul was lowered to escape the jews After began the tireless Christian preaching that would characterize the rest of his life (Acts 9:20-25). Paul himself later says that it was through a window that he escaped from certain death (2 Cor 11:32-33). According to the Acts of the Apostles, Saint Thomas also lived in that neighborhood.

Old Damascus exists in the dividers of the recorded city of Damascus. Damascus is described by its hundreds of years old structures and heavenly places, which are images of religions.

Bayt translates literally as house, but its connotations resonate beyond rooms and walls, summoning longings gathered about family and home. In the Middle East, bayt is sacred. Empires fall. Nations topple. Borders may shift or be realigned. Old loyalties may dissolve or, without warning, be altered. Home, whether it be structure or familiar ground, is finally, the identity that does not fade. (Shadid, 2012: xiii) What disappointments await the naive traveller to the famous cities of the fabulous East! Were all those old story-tellers lying? Did they see things differently then? Can things and people have changed so much? The eagerly awaited wonders, the marvellous surprises, the ruins, the monuments, the stories from the Thousand and One Nights, the folksongs and dances - they are no longer enough to colour the spectacle and transform it for us.

  • Syria: Between Its Virtues Morality According to the Sacred Text and Geopolitical Conflict
    Proceeding of the 2nd International Seminar and Conference on Global Issues (ISCoGI) 2016: European and Asian in the Age of Globalization: Cooperation and Challenge Wahid Hasyim University, Semarang, Indonesia. Nov. 25-26, 2016 Paper No. B.17 Syria: Between its Virtues Morality According to the Sacred Text and Geopolitical Conflict Muh.Syaifudin Islamic Education Faculty, Wahid Hasyim University X/22 Menoreh Tengah Street, Sampangan, Semarang, Indonesia 50236 [email protected] Bakr Zaki Awad Al-Azhar University, Cairo, Egypt 1 Al Mokhaym Al Daem, Gameat Al Azhar, Nasr City, Cairo Governorate, Mesir Abstrak-Islam dalam beberapa teks sucinya menganggap Syiria (Syam) sebagai Negara yang sangat dihormati dan mulia.Tapi konflik dewasa ini menengarai adanya penolakan terhadap teks-teks suci tersebut. Saudi yang nota bene terstigmakan sebagai bangsa yang literalis justru turut bertarung di dalamnya bersama-sama dengan Negara-negara non muslim. Dari background inilah artikel ini ditulis. Dengan metode deskriptif analisis, tepatnya dengan pendekatan linguistik dan hermeneutik, artikel ini mengkritisi teks-teks suci yang berkaitan dengan keutaman Negara Syam. Di samping itu, artikel ini, dari sisi tinjauan politis, menggunakan pendekatan fungsional (functional approach) karena para aktor yang bertarung dalam konflik ini lebih memainkan peran-peran mereka yang bersifat temporer, atau kepentingan-kepentingan sesaat. Hasil dari penelitian ini adalah bahwa kendatipun ada teks- tekssucitentangkeutamaanSyam, tapipihak-pihak yang secara lahiriah memporakporandakan Syam tidak bisa serta merta dituduh menolak teks-teks tersebut. Sebab di samping keutamaan Syam yang terkandung dalam teks-teks tersebut bersifat kontekstual, pemuliaan yang dikehendaki dalam teks tidak berarti membiarkannya tetap dalam ketenangan kendati di dalamnya banyak hal yang perlu dibenahi meski dengan ketegasan.
