GuyAnd at Jesus College on Turl Street, thanks to Leeds, who has been appointed assistant curator at the Ashmolean Museum, Lawrence Penaud meets Professor Hogarth, a leading Orientalist who knows the East like his pocket and also, what is of great importance to Lawrence's future, this Hogarth is the worthy representative of his day, for he is 47 years old and lived much of the Victorian era and that of Ed- ward VII, and his reason for living, it's the British empire.

Hogarth is very influenced by "La Table Ronde" which gathers people who are passionate about the empire. When it decided, from , to pri- vilege its continental identity and convince itself to seek to establish its destiny to that of the partners of the European Economic Com- munity, it does not resign itself to break completely with a past that continues to inspire pride and nostalgia: The Archeologist to I can understand what was the excitement of T.

Lawrence when he first saw the south of France and the Mediterranean, because I also felt that during my first trips there. As I have felt in some museums in front of Van Gogh's or Monet's paintings, when these impressionist painters communicated to me the bliss during which fugitive impressions of which the climatic and luminous phenomena took place before my eyes. Lawrence too, in front of these ancient castles, like the one in Carcassonne, these historic places like Aigues-Mortes, or this very blue sea surrounded by flaming land, felt transported to a new world that the British cities and shores could have never produced.

And this excitement was such that, upon his return to England, he decided to prepare his thesis on "Crusader Military Architecture" Hogarth sent him a letter of recommendation, and Lawrence, who had meanwhile taken Arabic lessons, was going to walk kilometers in the great Syria of the Ottoman Empire. He could not be content by visiting as we do most of the time, often guided by tourism organizers taken with the timing whose sole purpose is to satisfy us by swallowing a maximum of informa- tion that we retain barely half at the end of our stay.

No, La- wrence took the time to insert himself into the daily life of the inhabitants, and this love for Syria and his people will allow him to pass his thesis with the congratulations of the jury. Hogarth is obviously delighted and understands that he is dealing with a rare pearl, he charges him an archaeological mission to Karke- mish in Asia Minor, in order to find traces of the Hittite civiliza- tion. The Archeologist to My translation from French to English His religious training at St Aldate's, his interest in Richard the Lionheart and the Crusades, the castles of the Middle Ages, his passionate reading of Arabia deserta of Doughty, the tune of the times, the ten -ninth century was passionate about the east , Lawrence left England on June 18, and arrived in Beirut on July 6.

He visits Lebanon, Palestine and Syria2: He celebrates his twenty-one years at Krak des Chevaliers. Thomas Edward Lawrence, on discovering it in on his 21st birthday, described it as "the most beautiful castles in the world, certainly the most picturesque I've seen, a marvel. That's about kilometers. The Archeologist to Source: The Archeologist to Photo taken in The Archeologist to Late - Early , T. Lawrence makes a new stay in the East via Constantinople, and will follow an Arabic course in Djebail See following maps. Constantinople at this time These photos were taken from the following video: The Archeologist to https: In antiquity, the city commanded the main crossing point of the Euphrates.

This situation must have contributed significantly to its historical and strategic importance. It was the scene of an important battle mentioned in the Bible between the Babylonians and the Egyptians. Russia, which has been dreaming of Constantinople for centuries, Istanbul connected Europe and Asia - the city was the key to the domination of the Middle East and the shortest route from Europe to India. Catherine II dreamed so much of Constantinople that she even named one of her grandchildren Constantine named after the first and the last emperor of Byzantium , Then there is Germany, which is colonizing Turkey.

France, too, is not ready to abandon Syria and Lebanon, which she has been coveting since the Crusades, and finally England, who wants at all costs to protect her way to the Indies by the Red Sea. Lawrence arrives in Karkemish at a time when the ruling nations of the day sent spies, and of course, many English agents. Even though archeology is a pretext, Lawrence is one of those spies. Today, times have changed: Indeed, despite the difficulties encountered by archaeologists in conducting excavations in countries at war, images of spy satellites and drones reveal the distant past of these countries, at the heart of the Silk Road.

And today we know of the existence of gigantic caravanserails, underground canals, or outposts used by traders who took the road of silk for many millennia. These discoveries from images collected over several decades open the way to new discoveries. The Archeologist to Karkemish https: Only when these sites are listed, they can be studied and protected," says David Thomas, an archaeologist at Melbourne's La Trobe University in Australia, who is interviewed by the American scientific journal Science Magazine.

Future discoveries may well rewrite history in this region, which is currently under stress. If Lawrence is asked about his happiness among all these arable workers, he answers that he is their friend and that his English nationality is of no importance and that the camaraderie and the spirit which animate them are much more important. He speaks like them, he suffers like them under the sun during work sometimes painful.

Lawrence lives with these people in all humility. Among these workers, however, he has a preference, and his name is Dahoum. It is a donkey-driver who carries potteries and shards. They even wanted to photograph themselves. First a photo of Dahoum by Lawrence, then one of Lawrence when he is wearing Dahoum's clothes.

This is where Lawrence and his companion become charcoal bearers. And Lawrence is in no way disturbed by these most subaltern professions And when the excavation district opens again, Lawrence re- sumes his archeology activity in Karkemish. The Archeologist to He meets Dahoum at Karkemish archeological site.

The Archeologist to It was said that Thomas Edward intended to decorate his home with this statue of a naked man, and people gossip claim it is Dahum's statue. Unfortunately, they are too intelligent to be ridiculous about it. They describe it as a garden, empty of villages, with the people crowded into frequent towns. The town wonder- fully peaceful and populous, the houses very high: They tell the villagers that Syria is a small poor country, very likely to be coveted by us tree- lovers… and that the Arabs are too few to count in world-politics.

All of this is very proper. They also estimate the value and quality of the food they ate in England: Lawrence to his mother, August The photo- graph above is from their living quarters on the site. The Hittite-inspired carving in the background was carved by T. Lawrence - Tormented Hero Emplacements du Kindle All three stayed in the bungalow which his father had constructed at the bot- tom of the garden at Polstead Road, owing to the lack of space in the main building.

The three drew glances as they rode around the city on bicycles wearing their Arab costumes Lawrence included , and when Lawrence took them to London and showed them the underground railway, Dahoum and Hamoudi were astonished. Lawrence - Tormented Hero Emplace- ments du Kindle We, the regulars in the city of Oxford, since that time or a little later , have al- ways seen students bike around in an outfit that seemed more suitable for Rolls Royce drivers. The Archeologist to Lawrence, Dahoum and Hamoudi are visiting Oxford No doubt it was for Dahoum and Hamoudi the opportunity to discover a real miracle of stones, a profusion of architectural styles harmoniously associated and a pleasure to observe the gargoyles and facades.

Summer, at the end of the day, when the sun sets and touches the carved lace of pinnacles, domes, bell towers, towers, and gargoyles, it's time to enjoy the serenity and charm of the city. Lawrence could not help but notice him. He was looking after the donkeys. He was of slender build, and his eyes, which were large and brown, followed Lawrence wherever he went. Lawrence, equally curious about the boy, summoned him to come and look at an ancient, newly excavated wall, one which had lain beneath the desert sands for centuries. He talks of going into Aleppo to school with the money he had made out of us.

I will try to keep an eye on him, to see what happens. Lawrence had him pose for a sculpture, which he himself carved in limestone in the manner of the ancient Greeks and displayed it in front of his house. From his appearance, Lawrence guessed he was a mixture of Hittite the ancient civiliza- tion of northern Syria which included the area where they now were—Carchemish and Arab. There was an immediate affinity between the two, and over the weeks Lawrence was able to find out more about Dahoum, who now took on the extra task of being his servant and companion.

He spoke about going to Aleppo to school after he had made sufficient money from his work as a donkey boy, ferrying people to and from the site of the excavations. Meanwhile, Lawrence decided to ask Miss Fareedah, a local teacher, to help the boy with his reading and writing, and to loan him a few simple books with which to commence an education.

In the same way that his father Thomas had taught him various skills, so Lawrence taught Dahoum photography and made him his laboratory assistant. The Archeologist to Learn more about Dahoum https: Since he arrived at Karkemish, Lawrence knows he is no longer alone in this desert. Dahoum does not leave him anymore.

Dahoum is the boy, the donkey-boy, but he is called Sheikh Ahmed because he imposes it, despite his young age. He is fourteen years old when Lawrence meets him in Small, very robust, great rider and good shooter as a good swimmer. With Thomas Edward, they enjoy crossing the Euphrates during competitions that they invent. Although black with pigment, her skin is strangely clear, her complexion pale. Mixed blood of Hittite and Arab. He will inherit the nickname of Dahoum, A scandal will yet go through the village of Djerablous.

The friendship between the Levant teenager and the young archaeologist is singular in many ways and makes people talk. Ned found his soulmate, kindred spirit, he says. Photographic pose sessions, imagined by Lawrence, disconcert. Dahoum first, in traditional dress with a pistol on his knees. See photo on page 53 Then, immediately after, Lawrence with the clothes of Dahoum that he passed and the same weapon in the same place. Disturbing image, so much the resemblance is striking. And finally, Dahoum naked, to carve a statue in the local limestone.

La Plume et le Rouleau, chronicles illuminate the Present in the light of history http: He will thus support a thesis on "The Influence of the Crusades on the Military Architecture of Europe until the end of the thirteenth century" and, from , stay in Syria, Egypt and Sinai, until , where he participated for nearly three years in the Hittite archaeological digs of Karkemish Northern Syria. The Archeologist to Another photo with Woolley.

Sir Charles Leonard Woolley, born April 17, at Upper Clapton, London, died on February 20, aged 79 , is a British ar- chaeologist who spent fifteen years of his life, from to , excavating the site of ancient Ur Mesopotamia, in the territory of present-day Iraq. Lawrence was his assistant there from to The Archeologist to Karkemish's site when Lawrence was doing excavations there. The Ottoman Empire during Lawrence's excavations at Karke- mish was still considerable, but compared to its beginnings, it only included the colored surface in light green.

The Archeologist to The Karkemish site currently Karkemish, an outpost of the Hittite Empire and an Assyrian city, dominates the Euphrates and is today on the Syrian-Turkish border see map. Recently, with the improved accessibility of the site in Syria and the availability of high-resolution satellite imagery, Carchemish Current spelling has begun to reveal a wealth of new and exciting information. In , the Berlin-Baghdad railway was built across the site, and the Turkish-Syrian border was later established along this site. Subsequently, the excavated citadel and part of the outer city was located in Turkey.

In , the Berlin-Baghdad railway was built across the site. The Archeologist to Excavations in Egypt with Flinders Petrie Sir William Flinders Petrie, , commonly known as Flinders Petrie, was an English Egyptologist and pioneer of systematic methodology in archeology and arte- fact preservation. He held the first chair of Egyptology in the United Kingdom and excavated several of Egypt's most important archaeological sites, in collaboration with his wife, Hilda Petrie. January 2, T.

Lawrence goes on a mission to Egypt to participate in the Flin- ders Petrie digs. The latter discovers a prehistoric cemetery in the vicinity of the city of Kafr Ammar located 50 km from Cairo. February 2, Lawrence leaves Egypt to return to Syria to prepare new searches for the archaeological site. He stays in Da- mascus where he negotiates the purchase of a Hittite seal. Bell of Bagdad First meeting with Gertrude Bell Lawrence forgot his misogyny when he worked with her until In May , at Karkemish, Lawrence met Gertrude Bell for the first time.

She is 43 years old, twenty years older than him. Daughter of a great Yorkshire industrialist, first prize winner in Oxford, known as "khatun", "lady" or "queen of the desert" completed between and six archaeological and diplomatic expeditions between the Levant and the Euphrates. Another point in common with TE Lawrence, she combines a courage Extre- mely phy-sic with a great fragility sentimen- tale and like him, she knows a tragic end: Bell of Bagdad T.

Lawrence did not like women - we suspect. He said even less to the women who wrote: In Cairo the history of literature would lose nothing. He forgot his misogyny when he was with Gertrude Bell. After her first meeting with her, at Carchem- ish in May , he wrote of her: Bell of Bagdad Gertrude Bell: The original bronze bust was stolen from the National Museum in Baghdad in Her role in the founding of Iraq makes her one of the most in- fluential women of her time In the immensity of the desert red of the Nefoud, battered by the sandy winds and the storms, the Bedouins of one hundred years ago sometimes intersected an astonishing silhouette, green eyes, fine and pointed nose, hard white skin, which walked without fear and spoke their language.

This unusual apparition, they called it the "Khatun" noble lady , and she enjoyed all the hallmarks of local hospitality. In her country, England, Khatun was called Gertrude Bell: Gertrude, in front of her tent in Is it for this last achievement perceived today with embarrassment and bad conscience that the German Archeological Camp Gertrude Bell was relegated to the oblivion of history for 80 years, unlike so many other intrepid of Babylon in explorers like Alexandra David-Neel or Isabelle Eberhardt? In , a biopic was released on Swiss http: Bell of Bagdad Source: She ventured into the heart of the Arabian desert that no European had explored for 20 years.

Gertrude travels 1, kilometers to the ancient city of Hail where is the palace of Prince Rachid, leader of the clan that reigns over the cen- ter of Arabia. This odyssey will change the course of Middle Eastern history. The Englishwoman Gertrude Bell lived an extraordinary life. Her adventures are the stuff of novels: Called the most powerful woman in the British Empire, she counseled kings and prime ministers.

Bell's colleagues included Lloyd George and Winston Churchill, who in invited Bell-the only woman whose advice was sought-to the Cairo Conference to "determine the future of Mesopotamia. John Philby, and Arabian sheiks. In this volume of three of her notebooks, Rosemary O'Brien preserves Bell's elegant, vibrant prose, and presents Bell as a brilliant tactician fearlessly confronting her own vulnerability. The fundamental themes of her life- reckless behavior; a divided self which combined brilliance of intellect with a passionate nature; a sense of history; and the fatal gift of falling in love with a married man-are all here in remarkable detail.

Her journey to northern Arabia in earned Bell professional reco- gnition from the Royal Geographical Society, and solidified her reputation as a canny politi- cal analyst of Middle Eastern affairs. In December , having set up a caravan, she vanished into the desert; she carried a little traveling theodolite of the Royal Society of Geography, drew a line of wells hitherto unknown on the map, and accumulated information on the NEJD or NEDJED tribes that became of national importance thereafter.

Despite the bad weather, freezing nights and hostility of an Arab tribe from Dje- bel, she covered the first stage in just 21 days. However, Gertrud Bell leaves without escort and without protection from the English au- thorities; she totally cleared the Ottoman au- thorities whom she was leaving at her own risk. So she left for Nejd. Above, map showing the geological relief of Arabia and the Nejd Highlands. On the right, the brown graph of altitudes. In light green, on the right, the Nejd is superimposed on the mo- dern political divisions of Saudi Arabia.

The city, which currently has more than , inhabitants, was once the capital of a powerful emirate controlled by the family Al Rachid, rival of the Al Sauds, until the creation by the latter of the current Saudi kingdom. Memories of Baron Hotel in Aleppo June Lawrence, at the scene that will decide his commitment.

It is from the balcony that King Faisal proclaims the independence of Syria and in , and it is in front of the hotel that the parade of independence took place. Lawrence, on the places that will decide his commitment. England aimed at the annihilation of the Baghdad-Bahn. The heat becomes overwhelming. An acute attack of malaria seized him in mid-September, while he is in Aleppo, exhausted, very thin, but happy to have lived as an "Arab among the Arabs. We returned to the Hotel Baron.

Only the patina arrived on the ground. Tourists in search of nostalgia replaced the adventurers of the time. Lawrence's room is intact. Since then, everyone has slept there: It still floats a smell of fuel and arak intimately mixed. Everything here breathes Lawrence and his dreams. For it is in this Hotel Baron that he is sworn: Indeed, excavations have been interrupted for thirty years and the railway line connecting Baghdad to Berlin must pass close to the site.

A gigantic bridge will even be thrown on the Euphrates at the precise place where Djerablous is installed. Many German engineers and Arab and Kurdish workers are already preparing for major works. There is, therefore, an urgent need for archaeologists to reclaim the land to prevent the construction of the railway and the passage of convoys to destroy this glorious past. The England's aim is to completely destroy the German project that aims to control the production and transport of oil from Mesopotamia, and to prevent the emergence of an economically unified continental bloc from Hamburg to the shores of Chatt-el-arab.

Photograph of the construction of the Berlin-Baghdad railway. Lawrence stayed during his excavations. Memories of Baron Hotel in Aleppo And our guide approaches a window decorated with various objects including a book written by T. La- wrence, a letter on which through a magnifying glass we can read: Memories of Baron Hotel in Aleppo Then, believing that we should defend Lawrence's honesty, our guide told us of the communication by Armen Mazloumian, the former boss who died two months before the production of this short film: June , the blaze of Europe While T.

Lawrence is searching in Karkemish excavations, Europe is getting ready to catch fire From the declaration of war, the Patriots demonstrate through Patriotic gatherings formed in the London streets Like here in White Hall In the foreground young kids are already dressed as soldiers and say they are ready to die for England. The butcher is preparing.

Below, these men are doomed: Not a single soldier of this Irish Guards team, photographed in , survived the horrible massacre that took place on the battlefield. June , the blaze of Europe Lawrence is in England on August 4, He met Gertrude and his disappointment is obvious: Turkey is not a belligerent and conse- quently Lawrence doesn't have any opportunity to intervene against this army, he who knows this country so well.

But in October, this is no longer the case, the Turks go to war alongside the Germans. His first instinct is to meet Hogarth, his benefactor in many cases, to intervene with the British authorities so that Lawrence can help England. And thanks to Hogarth, he is sent to the staff of Cairo. He was introduced to his job as a spy by Gertrude Bell , a writer and adventurer who was as eccentric as he was. In , the Turks having gone to war with the Germans and Austro-Hungarians, the Franco-British Allies tried to fight on two fronts, firstly by landing an expeditionary force on the peninsula of Gallipoli, doors of Istanbul, on the other hand occupying Mesopotamia current Iraq.

Both operations result in disaster. The expeditionary force of Gallipoli must re-embark in disaster on January 8, When the Anglo- Indian army of Mesopotamia, it is forced to a humiliating surrender April 26, , while the trench warfare in full swing in Europe. In Cairo, from which the English watch the East, we decide, for want of anything better, to raise the Arab Sheikhs against the Turks. June , the blaze of Europe Lawrence has been missing since October This does not necessarily mean that he is killed or wounded. He was 25 years old. Although his death was not confirmed until the following May, Thomas Edward was con- vinced.

Born in , he enjoyed a privileged education and served with distinction in South Africa and in the Boer War His successes brought him up to the command of the Third Army until his clash with his supreme commander, General Douglas Haig, who had replaced French. Allenby was then transferred to the Palestine front where his only real danger was boredom.

There, he met an unkempt and somewhat erratic leader, Captain T. Lawrence, the recent winner of Aqaba, always ready to stir up revolt. Lawrence, later, will remember Allenby as a man "physically tall and confident, but also morally so great that the understanding of our smallness came slowly to him" And Lawrence will add: Allenby combined their northern advancing efforts against the Turks by using their mechanized forces against them in rapid attack while the Arabs hit Turkish railway lines and hampered their movement of troops and supplies.

June , the blaze of Europe Gertrude Bell, fallen in love with the British consul in Damascus, Richard Doughty-Wylie, will be painfully struck by his death on the front in , and she will never recover. Lawrence is assigned to the intelligence services to Following of article: He is the dominant figure in the entire Hejaz campaign. Daoud frequently wreaked havoc on rezzos, often making no quarter.

Conscious of the danger, and as she had become accustomed to doing it, she decided to confront it from the front and advanced to the Howeitat camp, heading straight and alone to the chief's black tent, which was dinner party. Somewhat taken aback by this apparition, the latter invi- ted him to sit down and share his meal, the only woman among all those fierce men gathered around a huge plateau loaded with a mountain of rice and mutton where everyone plunged his hand. Miss BELL certainly was not cold in the eyes that she had a beautiful green under a flamingo hair.

Aouda Abu Tayi himself was conquered. Politics in Arabia was a man's affair, but that also fascinated her, and now she allowed herself to discuss it. The Arab instinct admires courage, whether physical or moral. Aouda had measured at a glance that of this Western woman he held yet at his mercy, she and her suite.

Gertrude had nothing to fear for herself, her men, or her property. In her diary she speaks of this sinister tribe as "a great people" and its leader as "a remarkable leader and a great future. Lawrence Lawrence of Arabia succeeded in convincing him to join the revolt. His troops took an important part during the falls of Aqaba July and Damascus October His role in Lawrence of Arabia was played by Anthony Quinn.

He is portrayed as a complex character, both wise and hacker.

This need to show his resistance to suf- fering is a clue that the director of the film considered useful to pre- sent from the outset. Lawrence is assigned to the intelligence services to Kut-el-Amara would eventually fall In April , Law- rence was ordered to go to Kut-el- Amaea, on the Eu- phrates, north of Basra. The English army had been shut up in that city since September They had tried from India to take the Turks back, but it was a failure.

And ten thousand Brit- ish people were im- prisoned there, surrounded by the Turks.

The Turkish general was Halil Pasha. As Lawrence spoke well in Arabic and knew the region well, he was chosen. Delicate and exceptional mission for this junior officer, archeologist, and spy, certainly, but very little militarized. Lawrence was to offer Halil Pasha a million pounds to lift the siege. When Lawrence arrives in Basra, he is rather badly received by the British officers who consider that this man disgraces the army and his country.

The Pacha refuses the million and de- spite the fact that Lawrence will double the offer, the Pacha will refuse again. Left, Charles Townshend Lawrence is assigned to the intelligence services to Faced with this refusal, Lawrence will have to deploy all his skills in negotiation and his main concern will be to ask that the civilian population of the locality be spared because it was common at that time and many others besides to punish these civilians by relentless repression. Barely returned to Basra, he receives another mission worded as follows: If that is possible, then Arab nationalism will serve us against the Turks Why would we not make them want to be independent?

On April 29, , the British surrendered to the Ot- tomans at Kut. Anonymous Turkish artist, chromoli- thography of Initially, the influence of the revolt does not exceed the framework of During the First World War, he played an important role in launching the the Arabian Peninsula and is limited to skirmishes with the Ot- Arab Revolt and in allying himself with the British and the French against tomans and a guerrilla in the desert.

In , the day after the abolition of the caliphate, King Hussein proclaimed himself caliph but he was overthrown by Abdelaziz Al Saoud dit ibn Saoud. Lawrence is assigned to the intelligence services to Location of the Kingdom of Hejaz in green. The red border corresponds to the current region of Hedjaz in Saudi Arabia. Lawrence is assigned to the intelligence services to On this map, the Hejaz was part of the Ottoman Empire, as indicated by the green area.

Lawrence is assigned to the intelligence services to The Arabs of Hedjaz The coastal strip west of the Arabian Peninsula whose name means "barrier," a name predestined to block the road to the Turks won several successes against these. However, the railroad brings from Damascus troops and equipment. And the Arabs are forced to accept the yoke of their oppressors. Old Hussein calls the English to his aid. We are arriving at the moment when the British feel that the fruit is ripe and must be picked, and they send Stoors to meet Hussein and his sons.

A young officer is with him. His name is Lawrence. Lawrence doing in Djeddah? He was dispatched by ship to Jeddah to assess the situation in the Hejaz Region and also suggest further courses of action. Part of his mission was to assess the various Hashemite leaders and determine which of these was most likely to pursue the war effectively against the Turks Ottoman Empire. Despite his young age and lack of field experience, Lawrence quickly assessed the qualities of the various Arab leaders. He recognized Faisal as being a charismatic leader. Faisal established a camp near Yanbu with around 9, men See the map next page.

His shadow would cover our work and all English politics in the East if he could only give up the world in order to prepare his mind and body with the severity of an athlete before the fight.

Lawrence is assigned to the intelligence services to In Jeddah, Lawrence meets Abdullah 35 years old , then he goes to Rabigh by boat, further north, where he meets Ali 37 years old , and he ends his tour in Hamra, near Wadi Safrah, where he meets Faisal. See the map Lawrence's journey between Rabigh and Wadi Safrah will be done in camels, that will travel more than one hundred and fifty kilometers in a desert under overwhelming heat, with temperatures reaching 50 degrees in some places.

I went back to Faisal's research and discovered in him the leader with will the necessary flame, with enough reason not to reject the support of our expe- highlight rience. Then he will lead his troops further north to Al Wadj where he will fight too. This battle will highlight the shortcomings of Faisal's army.

Abdullah picked up the phone and tried to get his father's consent for my trip inside the country. The Grand Cherif did not hide the suspicion that this proposal inspired him. Abdullah argued, scored two or three points, and passed the phone to Storrs, who immediately turned his old diplomat's batteries against old Hussein. The unleashed Storrs Arabic was both a joy for the ears and a lesson for any Englishman who must strive to conquer suspicious or refractory Orientals.

Rarely, he was resisted more than a few minutes; once again, here he swept everything. Abdullah, under the influence of Storrs, turned this cautious message into direct written ins- tructions: Having thus obtained all that I asked for and half of what Storrs asked, we parted to go to lunch. Lawrence is assigned to the intelligence services to Hussein Above authorized Lawrence to meet his son Faisal. And without waiting, Lawrence leaves, accompanied by two men.

After 3 days and 3 nights, he arrives at Faisal camp. It was, I understood at first glance, the man I was looking for in Arabia - the leader who would set the Arab Revolt in full glory. In his long white silk robes with a brown veil on his head, held by a cord of purple and gold, Faisal was like a very tall, very thin column. He kept his eyelids down, his black beard and his expressionless face surmounted by a kind of mask the strange, motionless vigilance of his body. His hands were crossed in front of him on his dagger How do you find our camp?

Superb, but far from Damascus. Faisal does not answer and he smiles.

In our lives, we receive ebb and flow; however, we are sometimes unable to recognize if the tide is an opportunity or an obstacle. It's up to us to take advantage of an opportunity or a warning sign. An older person can give this wise suggestion to the younger ones because it contains the beauty of the thought of taking advantage of the opportunity. It could also be suggested to businessmen to take action or not to act. Lawrence is assigned to the intelligence services to The Sykes-Picot agreements are signed on May 16, The Sykes-Picot agreements are secret agreements signed on May 16, , after negotiations between November and March , between France and the United Kingdom, with the approval of the Russian Empire and the Kingdom of Italy , providing for the sharing of the Middle East in several areas of influence for the benefit of these powers, which amounted to dismembering the Otto- man Empire.

These secret agreements were finally revealed to the general public only on November 23, , in an article of Izvestia and Pravda and on November 26, , then included in an article by the Manchester Guardian. Accord de Sykes-Picot https: The agreement did not take into account geographical conditions, nor ethnic, religious or cultural distribution. The blue zone of France included Lebanon and the southeastern part of present-day Turkey, as well as Syria and the nor- thern part of Iraq. The red zone covered the southern part of Iraq and Kuwait, as well as Jordan, the northern part of Saudi Arabia and the international administration part.

Lawrence is assigned to the intelligence services to Source: Lawrence is assigned to the intelligence services to In June , the agent of the British secret services TE Lawrence , under a cover of most convenient archaeologists, is assigned to a mission which will disrupt the order of things in the Middle East. In an article in Le Monde diplomatique dating from , Henry Laurens exposes that "a number of romantic spirits in Cairo" Lawrence to provide "a secret magazine of Middle East politics.

The British Foreign Office have described it as: Nor might the journal be quoted from, even in secret communications. The Arab Bulletin was written by experts for officials concerned with the area and for military commanders. The authors assumed on the part of their readers a very considerable back- https: The final issue, nel. The image above shows handwritten sta- no. Thus the Bulletin covers one of the most significant periods tistics which appear to refer to the geographi- in the history of the modern Middle East.

Not only does it describe in detail the campaign, cal locations of Ottoman military forces. The Bul- letin also reflects the emerging perception by the British of the idea of Arab unity. Lawrence is assigned to the intelligence services to Novembre T. Lawrence meets Wingate in Khartoum in November when he reached the end of his term as governor general of Anglo-Egyptian Sudan. Wingate then has the new task of eliminating the harmful economic consequences of the war of the Mahdists Sudan War , what occupies him until He was appointed Major General in and Lieutenant General in He was also given the title of Pasha.

As he speaks of Wingate and Khartoum, Lawrence is referring to the clothing of the Arabs he has chosen to wear. Our stubbornness to wear a hat in the East due to our ignorance, in fact, of insolation was, first of all, for the Orientals a subject of profound meditations. Finally, the wisest of them concluded that the Christians kept this hideous object on their head to put the screen of its edges between their weak sight and the embarrassing image of God.

Our hat reminds us incessantly to Islam that God, the misnamed, is also unloved by Christians. The English, for their part, decided that such an unfortunate preju- dice and which has nothing in common with our hatred for turbans must be corrected at all costs. They refused to give up their headgear: For my part, I had been accustomed in Syria, even before the war, to wear the Arab costume when it was necessary; I felt comfortable there, without the slightest impression of degradation. The dresses were very annoying to climb the stairs four to four, but the veil was perfectly adapted to the climate.

Having adopted it during our journey into the interior of the country, I was now, braving contempt, to fly it under the fire of the British fleet, until some shop agreed to sell me a cap. Sir Reginald Wingate , Sirdar of the Egyptian army, Sirdar, honorary title of the general-in-chief of an army in the Middle East received the command of the British troops intended to support the Arab Revolt; I thought it very necessary to go and see Sir Reginald, too, to confide my impressions to him. So I asked Admiral Weymiss for a place on his ship and on his train to Khartoum.

He gladly granted it to me after an examination in good standing. I discovered that his active mind and broad intelligence had been concerned from the beginning with the Arab Revolt. Many times his flagship came to help the Rebels at critical moments; many times he had strayed from his path to support a fight on the coast, which was properly the work of the Army, rather than his own.

Receiving all the requests with a real pleasure, he made it right with generosity. He had given the Arabs cannons and machine guns, transported, disembarked troops, provided technical advice, in short, cooperated with the Movement without skimping and the best will of the world After Arabia, Khartoum seemed fresh to me. I drew on this change the energy necessary to communicate to Sir Reginald Wingate the long report written while waiting for Yanbo sometimes spelled Yanbu.

The conclusions were full of promise. The Arabs, in my opinion, needed, above all, technical advice; the success of the campaign would be assured by seconding to the Arab chiefs some officers of our regular army, instructed in the language of the country and experienced technicians, who would keep us in touch with the Revolt. My optimism cheers Wingate. For years, he dreamed of this Revolt. However, chance wanted him to receive, during my stay in Khartoum, the power to play the leading role.

The intrigues against Sir Henry Mac Mahon had just succeeded: So, after two or three days comfortably reading Arthur's Death, I came back from Khartoum to Cairo sure to have told the man responsible all that I could tell him. The descent on the Nile became a pleasure. End of the excerpt https: He was named First Sea Lord in December He represented Great Britain, alongside Marshal Foch, Generalissimo of the Allied Armies, during negotiations with the Germans and the signing of the armistice in the Rethondes Glade. The man, who served several years in Sudan, is fluent in the Arabic language.

Before inventing a rudimentary pomegranate, the so-called Garland pomegranate used during the Dardanelles campaign , then a mine to blow up the railroad lines, this explosives specialist, ten years earlier, published a novel sentimental located in Guernsey. Better handling the dynamite than the pen, the "Commander" teaches Lawrence the basics of his art before becoming the last person in charge of the Arab Bulletin, in Lawrence will pay tribute to this discreet hero in The Seven Pillars of Wisdom: He had his own way of blowing up the trains, cutting down the telegraph lines or cutting the metals, and his knowledge of the Arabic language, combined with the freedoms that he took with the theories taught at the School of Engineering, allowed him to train in a jiffy Bedouins illiterate to the job of saboteur.

He familiarized me with the explosives. His health was failing, and the climate often made him sick. Her fragile heart was aching after an effort or a hard blow. But he treated these risks with the same casualness as his detonators The Arabs had no more than 1, men and it was expected that the Ottomans would descend on the city imminently. Garland made sure that a defensive trench was dug by the inhabitants of the city, barbed wire was established, the positions of the machine guns were correctly located and the year-old coral walls were reinforced. He even put an old Turkish gun into service which, in Garlands' words, was "able to pull back instead of forwards.

One of Garland's men thought the spotlight had played a key role in winning the battle, being used to discourage an Ottoman attack by highlighting the plain without the cover that had to be crossed before reaching the city. Lawrence is assigned to the intelligence services to HSource: Herbert Garland was a maverick explosives expert who played a pivotal role in the Arab insurgency against the Ottoman Empire.

By Richard Alleyne, Science Correspondent 6: Now the Royal Society of Chemistry is to finally commemorate the army officer who wrecked his health leading the Arab rebellion before dying forgotten and almost penniless in Gravesend aged just Lawrence is assigned to the intelligence services to Following: At the outbreak of war, he joined the Arab Bureau along with Lawrence, a group of intellectuals and businessmen whose "mission was to collect every possible bit of information about Turkish and German influence in the Middle East and act on it in the field. He developed the mines and taught Lawrence and the rebels how to use them in their guerrilla campaign that acted as a great diversion allowing the British to take Damascus and bring down the Ottoman Empire.

His final act in the war was being sent to Medina, the last place to be surrendered by the Turks, in late He was responsible for the overseeing of the surrender of the key town to the allies. But while Lawrence of Arabia, who died almost 75 years ago, refers to him briefly in his book, Seven Pillars of Wisdom, the full achievements of Garland have not been revealed until now. Lawrence alludes to Garland in his book about the desert revolt, upon which the multi Oscar-winning film Lawrence of Arabia was based and which made great play of the derailing of Turkish trains.

His pupils admired a man who was never at a loss. In a letter, Lawrence writes at one point that Garland contribution to the campaign was greater than his. He digs their trenches, teaches them musketry, machine gun work, signaling, gets on with them exceedingly well and always makes the best of things and they all like him too.

Sir Stanley Maude and Other Memories. And there he meets Auda Abu Tayi. Lawrence describing Auda Abu Tayi "As always with Lawrence, it's the first impression that counts and, precisely, the fascination he feels for the Bedouin is immediate. We had been told many things about this man and what I had learned had led me to the conclusion that his competition would allow us to force the lock of Aqaba; when, having listened for a few moments, I perceived the strength and lack of detours of the character, I knew we were reaching the goal [ He must have been more than sixty years old, and his black hair was streaked with white, but he was still sturdy and straight, as supple, slender, and lively as a much younger man.

His face, beautiful even in his wrinkles and furrows, reflected the great sorrow of his life, the disappearance of Annad, his favorite son [ But no matter that the pink line corrects the blue line, the essential thing is to note the terrible effort it took to take the Turks back.

July 6, , the fall of Aqaba So, one might wonder why he chooses Aqaba? Because, first of all, the Turkish army is very present and this army can prevent the English, located in Egypt, from marching towards Jerusalem. On this route from Al Wadjh to Aqaba, Lawrence will decide to leave this army for a few days to go back alone to Damascus. And when he returns to this army whose objective has not changed, since it remained Aqaba, he will even take the opportu- nity to blow a train. Finally, it is July 5, that they arrive at Aqaba, whose defense sea side seems impassable.

What is not the case from the rear, and besides nobody had thought to defend the rear as it needed still big efforts from these Arab tired to accomplish this distance and overcome the difficul- ties of the ground. When the Turks watched as the Arabs descended from the ridges, they were terrified and surrendered the next day. It was an absolutely unpredictable victory And Lawrence obviously warned the staff of Cairo. Never mind, he will cross the desert and arrive in Cairo km of desert in 49 hours, report the reports of historians where after some unders- tandable hesitation, he will be welcomed as a national hero.

July 6, , the fall of Aqaba Some details on the Battle of Aqaba https: A separate group of Arab rebels, in coordination with the expedition, had taken up the position a few days earlier, but a Turkish infantry battalion took it over. They then attacked an Arab encampment and killed several of them. Having learned of these facts, Auda personally launched an attack on Turkish troops on 6 July. The Arab charge was victorious.

The Turkish resistance was weak, but the Arabs massacred hundreds of soldiers by pure revenge, before their leaders could prevent them. A total of Turks were killed and others captured, for only 2 killed and some wounded. Lawrence himself nearly perished during the operations: Auda also came close to death several times: Meanwhile, some British ships positioned themselves off Aqaba itself, and began to bomb the fort. See photo taken in , next page At that moment, Lawrence, Auda, and Nasir gathered their troops; they were now quadrupled, amounting to about 2, men, the local Bedouins having now joined the rebellion following the defeat of the Turks at Lissal.

This force skirted the defensive lines of Aqaba and received the surrender of Ottoman troops from the fort. The illustration Turkish surrender of Aqaba is fulled of dignity compared to cruelty of the text above The illustration comes from The Arab Revolt by David Murphy.

Upon arriving at the Suez Canal, La- wrence phoned Cairo HQ to announce this success, and he also organized a naval supply ship to Aqaba. Lawrence arrived in Cairo a few days later and met Allenby, who agreed to supply the Arab forces with arms, food, financing and several warships. The capture of Aqaba allowed the transport of Fai- sal's army further north, where it could begin opera- tions with the logistic support of the British army. The conquest of the city would also ease pressure on Bri- tish forces in Palestine and isolate Turkish forces in Medina, opening the way for possible Arab military operations in Syria and Jordan.
