From its settlement in the 7th century to its conquest by Napoleon at the beginning of the 19th, Dubrovnik repeatedly held a significant position beyond what could have been expected of this tiny city-state. But Dubrovnik also faced the extreme dangers posed by Venetian plotters, Ottoman aggressors, natural disasters and, finally, Napoleon. In modern times, the city survived the besieging Yugoslav army in 1991-92, which heavily damaged but did not destroy Dubrovnik's cultural heritage. This book is a comprehensive history of Dubrovnik's progress over twelve centuries of European development, encompassing arts, architecture, social and economic changes and the traumas of war and politics.

“Detailed, scholarly and eminently readable, Dubrovnik is a triumph of book production. This is a splendid volume.”—The Literary Review “There are few introductions to the city’s past available to general readers . . . Harris’ splendid study meets this need admirably.”—The Times Literary Supplement “A fascinating and scholarly account.”—Daily Telegraph Since emerging as a settlement in the seventh century, Dubrovnik held a significant position beyond what could have been expected of this tiny city-state. Its merchants, trading throughout the huge Ottoman Empire, enjoyed privileges denied to other Western states. A politically skilled and commercially enterprising ruling class took every opportunity to maximize the republic’s wealth. Dubrovnik also faced the extreme dangers posed by Venetian aggressors, Ottoman plotters, a terrible earthquake in 1667, and, finally, the will of Napoleon. In 1991 and 1992, the city survived the besieging Yugoslav army, which heavily damaged but did not destroy Dubrovnik’s cultural heritage. This book is a comprehensive history of Dubrovnik’s progress over twelve centuries of European development, encompassing arts, architecture, social and economic changes, and the traumas of war and politics.

Just One Day. Just One Year. Just One Read.Before you find out how their story ends, remember how it began....When he opens his eyes, Willem doesn’t know where in the world he is—Prague or Dubrovnik or back in Amsterdam. All he knows is that he is once again alone, and that he needs to find a girl named Lulu. They shared one magical day in Paris, and something about that day—that girl—makes Willem wonder if they aren’t fated to be together. He travels all over the world, from Mexico to India, hoping to reconnect with her. But as months go by and Lulu remains elusive, Willem starts to question if the hand of fate is as strong as he’d thought. . . .            The romantic, emotional companion to Just One Day, this is a story of the choices we make and the accidents that happen—and the happiness we can find when the two intersect.

A team of professional card sharks set out to fleece a wealthy aristocrat of this savings and receive an I.O.U. in payment, which turns out to be worthless. An interesting international cast and a setting in beautiful downtown Dubrovnik (a resort town in Yugoslavia) makes for an enjoyable 'caper' film.

Croatia, with its long coastline on the Adriatic Sea, captivates with its varied landscape, which includes raging waterfalls, untouched landscapes, and more than 1000 islands. The same applies to Montenegro, where you can find rugged mountains, medieval villages, and narrow beaches along the Adriatic coast. Dubrovnik, Split, and Zagreb are characterized by Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque buildings.

This new travel guide explores every aspect of the Balkan country of Croatia, with a strong focus on the natural and cultural aspects of this emerging nation. In-depth coverage of Dubrovnik - the "Pearl of the Adriatic", now restored to its former glory - and national parks, including the world-famous Plitvice Lakes, are just a couple of the highlights of the Bradt guide. Miles of unspoiled beaches and over 1,000 offshore islands bordering the Adriatic make up the stunning Dalmatian coast, perfect for sunbathing and yachting. Walkers can discover waterfalls, inland parks, and coastal hikes with breathtaking scenery. The historic cities of Dubrovnik, Zagreb, and Split provide an insight into the past for culture vultures intent on getting the best out of the country's remarkably rich heritage. This is the perfect guide to help visitors find and enjoy their own corner of this peaceful country, and learn about Croatia past and present.

This work presents a new aspect of the emergence of the Eastern Question - the displacement of the Ottoman Empire from Southeastern Europe - seen from the perspective of the small, but strategically important city-state of Dubrovnik, placed precariously between the Habsburg and Turkish empires. "Between the Double Eagle and the Crescent" offers an excellent example of the ability of small states in the Balkans to engage and use larger empires to preserve their independence and freedom to manoeuvre, which set a precedent for the patron-client relationships between the great powers of Europe and the Balkan states in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
