Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The story of the English occupation of Tangier in the reign of Charles II is to be found among hundreds of contemporary documents and letters, most of which have never been published. By far the most important source of information is the large collection of official correspondence preserved at the Public Record Office, under the heading "Colonial Office, 279", which contains many letters and reports written by the English Governors of Tangier between 1662-1684. The present work is based principally on these manuscript letters, from which a number of extracts are printed. Of many other valuable authorities, the most interesting, perhaps is a journal written at Tangier by John Luke ... this journal, which gives many details concerning social life, is, so far as I can ascertain, generally known"--Preface (p. vii).

Download or read book Tubiba of Tangier written by Cristina M. Bettin and published by Beatnik Publishing. This book was released on 2023-08-22 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lucia Bedarida Servadio was born in Ancona, Italy, in 1900, and died in Cornwall-on-Hudson, near New York, USA, in April 2006. By her choice, her body was brought back to Italy and laid in the family tomb at the Jewish cemetery in Turin, where her husband Nino had been buried. Lucia was not afraid of dying, as she said in an interview in 2000 for her 100th birthday: If I have a message for young people today, it would be this: You have to have faith in life because life is stronger than death. I have had a very rich, interesting life and I am happy to have lived it and to have had the things that I have had. Cristina M. Bettin Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Israel In this volume, beautifully produced by Beatnik and impeccably edited by the New Zealand Centre for Literary Translation, Cristina M. Bettin brings to life a little-known story of Lucia Servadio Bedarida, definitively establishing her as an important case study in the complex and painful history of modern Italian Judaism. In Bettin’s thoughtful and empathetic hands, Servadio speaks to the reader in her own words, while the author chisels a careful path through the intersecting issues of gender, class, language, and culture that Tubiba’s life illuminates. This is a story of pioneering medical achievement with a strong ethical charge, but also one of diasporic wonderings, both forced and deliberate, and of inter-cultural communication. It is at once deliciously random and wonderfully appropriate that this volume be the result of an intercontinental collaboration between New Zealand, Israel, and Italy.
