| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | "A journey through the Yemen and some general remarks upon that country" by Harris is a travelogue and historical account written in the late 19th century. It blends a clear survey of Yemen’s geography, history, and religious currents with an illustrated first-hand journey from Aden into the interior during Ottoman rule and local unrest. The opening of this work sets out its aims and offers a concise primer on Yemen: uncertain inland boundaries, the contrast between the arid Teháma plains and the fertile, terraced Jibál highlands, climate and crops (notably coffee), and key ports, islands, towns, and tribes. It outlines native provincial divisions and the practical limits of Ottoman control, then surveys pre-Islamic civilisations (Minæan and Sabæan), the Marib dam and the Queen of Sheba, Abyssinian and Persian domination, the advent of Islam, and early pretenders. The account moves briskly through later dynasties, European trading forays, the first Ottoman occupation, the rise of the Qasimi Imams, Wahhabi incursions, and 19th-century Egyptian and Ottoman interventions that left the Imamate weakened and the coast in Turkish hands. It closes this opening with a brief defense of Islam against Western misconceptions, foreshadowing a deeper look at religious influences. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
