8 Acknowledgements I would like to extend my thanks to Dr Terry Hale of Hull University and Dr Diane Mason of Bath Spa University College for their willingness to share vital information with me, and would also like to express my gratitude to the University of Surrey for having provided research money which allowed me to undertake valuable trips to the Public Records Office of Northern Ireland in Belfast and to the Bibliothèque Nationale de France (François Mitterand) in Paris. In particular, I would like to thank the staff at the Public Records Office of Northern Ireland, Leeds University Library and Mrs Virginia Murray, curator of the John Murray Archive, for their generous help while conducting my research. I should also like to extend a very warm thank-you to my patient map-maker, Vaughan Allen. The book is dedicated to the memory of my parents Hugh Ian and Sheila June Gibson. The author and publisher would like to thank the following for permission to reproduce copyrighted material. An extract of a letter by Jules Verne to his father.

9 Note on Translations All translations from French and Italian are by the author. The attempt has been in most cases to prioritise exactitude over stylistic felicity. In nearly all cases (except where it would prove too cumbersome or obvious) I have provided notes reproducing the original text or have placed the original French beneath the English text. viii

10 Introduction In his amusing travel book of 1875, the mysteriously initialled R.H.R describes how he decided to relax after what he considered to have been one of the best meals of his life at the Russian consulate in Cattaro, Dalmatia: I got another chair, and stretched my legs on it; the natives stared no Oriental ever thinks of stretching his legs the acme of comfort for him is to tuck them under him. 1 This distinction between an Oriental and a Western custom is designed to show the exotic nature of his location what can be more exotic than a difference of custom in a function which for most of us seems natural, not cultural? but also to define the area in which the traveller finds himself: it is a part of the Orient, and he is amongst Orientals. Few people today would define the Dalmatian coast (now southern Croatia and Montenegro) as Oriental, although they would not hesitate, I should think, to describe it as Balkan, and a part of Eastern Europe. However, the idea of the South Eastern European countries of the Balkans as being not merely Eastern (in the sense of a Slavic Eastern Europe to which, as Larry Wolff has shown, 2 they have also variously been perceived as belonging since Venetian times) but Oriental (i.e., part of the East that not does include North Eastern Europe and Russia, and is mainly non-christian) is a common one throughout the nineteenth century and up until the first Balkan war. In Eothen (1835), Alexander Kinglake declared that having left Austro-Hungarian Semlin for Turkishoccupied Belgrade I had come, as it were, to the end of this wheel-going Europe, and now my eyes would see the splendour and Havoc of the East. 3 Europe ends at Belgrade for Kinglake, although in his travels to Constantinople he is almost oblivious of the Christian Slavs and interested only in the Turks, even though he would have travelled through Southern Serbia, an area by then independent of Ottoman rule.
