Den lätta brigadens självmordsanfall 1854

Krimkrigets mest kända ögonblick är lätta brigadens fatala dödsanfall vid Balaklava den 25 oktober år 1854 mot en vägg av ryska artilleriprojektiler. Och för första gången på riktigt allvar kunde allmänheten ta del av fotografier från krigsområdet. Pressen hade på allvar gjort sitt inträde på krigets arena.Krimkriget utkämpades mellan Ryssland och en allians bestående av Storbritannien, Frankrike, Osmanska riket och Kungariket Sardinien. Kriget avbröt freden sedan 1815 mellan stormakterna i Europa. Krigföringen blandade nästintill medeltida belägringskrigföring med nymodigheter som ångfartyg och spränggranater.I detta avsnitt av Militärhistoriepodden ger sig Martin Hårdstedt och Peter Bennesved i kast med en av 1800-talets viktigaste militära konflikter. En infallsvinkel på kriget som ofta tonas ner och nästan glöms bort är att stridigheterna inleddes sommaren 1854 i Östersjön med att britter och fransmän intog och sprängde den ryska fästningen Bomarsund på Åland. Sverige lekte med tanken att ansluta sig till alliansen för att kunna återta Finland.På hösten 1854 landsteg de allierade på Krim som blev huvudkrigsskådeplats fram till fästningen Sevastopols fall hösten 1855. Kriget avslöjade den efterblivna militärmedicinen och bristerna i logistiken. Florence Nightingale och andra kunde i någon mån lindra plågorna för de stridande.Kriget kunde egentligen inte vinnas av någon. Ryssarna var alltför efterblivet industriellt för att på allvar kunna hota de allierade och de allierade kunde aldrig krossa de väldiga Ryssland. Kriget handlade om att stoppa de ryska expansionssträvandena söderut mot de svaga Osmanska riket och västerut genom Östersjön. Särskilt för britterna var det betydelsefullt att stoppa ryssarnas maritima framstötar. Därför blev fokus för de militära operationerna de två flottbaserna Bomarsund på Åland och Sevastopol på Krim.Det finns mycket skrivet om Krimkriget. Den som vill läsa mer övergripande om kriget kan ta sig an Clive Pointings bok The Crimean War: The Truth Behind the Myth (2005). Operationerna i Östersjön är utredda av Basil Greenhill och Ann Giffard i deras bok The British Assault on Finland 1854-1855 (1988). På svenska finns en rikt illustrerad bok om anfallet på Bomarsunds fästning: Graham Robbins, Håkan Skogsjö och Jerker Örjans Bomarsund.

Da alcuni giorni i traffici navali nel mar Rosso sono gravemente compromessi dalle attività degli Houthi, un gruppo armato sciita che governa di fatto buona parte dello Yemen, dove è in corso da quasi dieci anni una guerra civile. In questo contesto per gli Houthi la guerra a Gaza e gli attacchi nel mar Rosso si sono trasformati in un opportunità per ottenere legittimità e prestigio all'interno del mondo musulmano, e accreditarsi come importanti avversari di Israele nella regione. Ne parliamo con Laura Silvia Battaglia, giornalista esperta di Yemen.A partire dal tardo pomeriggio del 25 dicembre, i russi hanno lanciato sul territorio ucraino 19 droni kamikaze di fabbricazione iraniana 'Shahed', 13 dei quali sono stati abbattuti dalle forze di difesa ucraine. I droni - afferma il canale Telegram dell'aeronautica militare di Kiev, sono stati lanciati da Balaklava, in Crimea, e Primorsko Akhtars verso le regioni ucraine di Odessa, Kherson, Mykolaiv e Khmelnytskyi, quest'ultima nell'ovest dell'Ucraina.

Nell'antichità, per accompagnare l'arpa, la tromba e altri strumenti si usava uno strumento a percussione simile ai moderni cembali, o piatti. Nell'ebraico antico, il cembalo è detto tseltselìm e metsiltàyim. Tali parole derivano dalla radice tsalàl, che significa “formicolio; faretra”. Tsalàl si può tradurre “vibrare; rintronare; sconvolgere; tremare”. I cembali migliori erano fatti di rame. In un'antica tomba egizia è stata trovata una coppia di piatti. Questi strumenti hanno un diametro di circa 14 cm con impugnature al centro e sono fatti di una lega di rame con una leggera quantità di argento. Comunque, c'erano diversi tipi di cembali. Per esempio, in base ai testi antichi, ne esisteva un tipo chiamato “cimbali [o cembali] dal suono melodioso”. Forse erano dei piatti piccoli e tintinnanti. Un altro tipo era chiamato “cimbali che si scontrano” o “cembali risonanti”. Forse avevano un diametro maggiore e producevano suoni più forti, dai toni più profondi. Oggi, con la parola “cembalo” si intendono almeno cinque strumenti musicali differenti. · Cimbali. Quando ci si riferisce a strumenti a percussione come i piatti, si può dire sia “cembalo” che “cimbalo”. Anche se si tratta di strumenti inventati dagli antichi ebrei, o comunque di origine “biblica”, esistono alcune varianti “storiche”. Per esempio, il tamburello a sonagli, molto usato in alcune regioni italiane, è chiamato anche cembalo. Nella musica liturgica del Medioevo, era usato un altro strumento a percussione, di tipo melodico, il cymbala, costituito da una fila di campane accordate secondo la scala pitagorica e suonate con martelli. · Salterio. È il nome alternativo di uno strumento musicale a corde già esistente nell'antichità classica e di uso frequente nel Medioevo. Si poteva suonare pizzicando o percuotendo le corde con bacchette. È l'antenato del clavicembalo, del dulcimer anglosassone e del cembalo ungherese, uno strumento a corde percosse chiamato più spesso cimbalom. · Abbreviazione di clavicembalo. · Cembalo ad arco. Questo strumento a tastiera nacque nel XVII secolo. Era simile al clavicembalo. In tedesco è detto Geigenwerk. I suoi tasti mettono a contatto le corde corrispondenti con una serie di ruote di legno, messe in rotazione da una manovella, in modo da riprodurre l'effetto di un insieme di strumenti ad arco; il principio è simile a quello della ghironda. · Cimbalo. È un particolare registro dell'organo. Geografia È interessante che i genovesi ribattezzarono la loro colonia di Symbolon in Crimea con il nome di Cembalo. Il nome della città fu poi cambiato in Yamboli dai Bizantini. Dal 1475, con la conquista dei Turchi, viene chiamata Balaklava. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/corgiov/message

When the United Kingdom joined forces with Turkey and France to declare war on Russia in March 1854, Jamaican-Scottish nurse Mary Seacole decided her help was needed. When the British War Office declined her repeated offers of help, she headed off to Crimea anyway and set up her British Hotel near Balaklava. The British Hotel, which opened in March 1855, was a combination general store, restaurant, and first aid station, and the British soldiers and officers came to love Mary and call her “Mother Seacole.” Joining me in this episode to help us learn more about Mary Seacole is historian and writer Helen Rappaport, author of the new book, In Search of Mary Seacole: The Making of a Black Cultural Icon and Humanitarian, which will be released in the United States on September 6, 2022.

Krimkriget år 1854-56 inleddes i Östersjön

Krimkrigets mest kända ögonblick är lätta brigadens fatala dödsanfall vid Balaklava den 25 oktober år 1854 mot en vägg av ryska artilleriprojektiler. Och för första gången på riktigt allvar kunde allmänheten ta del av fotografier från krigsområdet. Pressen hade på allvar gjort sitt inträde på krigets arena.Krimkriget utkämpades mellan Ryssland och en allians bestående av Storbritannien, Frankrike, Osmanska riket och Kungariket Sardinien. Kriget avbröt freden sedan 1815 mellan stormakterna i Europa. Krigföringen blandade nästintill medeltida belägringskrigföring med nymodigheter som ångfartyg och spränggranater.I detta avsnitt av Militärhistoriepodden ger sig Martin Hårdstedt och Peter Bennesved i kast med en av 1800-talets viktigaste militära konflikter. En infallsvinkel på kriget som ofta tonas ner och nästan glöms bort är att stridigheterna inleddes sommaren 1854 i Östersjön med att britter och fransmän intog och sprängde den ryska fästningen Bomarsund på Åland. Sverige lekte med tanken att ansluta sig till alliansen för att kunna återta Finland.På hösten 1854 landsteg de allierade på Krim som blev huvudkrigsskådeplats fram till fästningen Sevastopols fall hösten 1855. Kriget avslöjade den efterblivna militärmedicinen och bristerna i logistiken. Florence Nightingale och andra kunde i någon mån lindra plågorna för de stridande.Kriget kunde egentligen inte vinnas av någon. Ryssarna var alltför efterblivet industriellt för att på allvar kunna hota de allierade och de allierade kunde aldrig krossa de väldiga Ryssland. Kriget handlade om att stoppa de ryska expansionssträvandena söderut mot de svaga Osmanska riket och västerut genom Östersjön. Särskilt för britterna var det betydelsefullt att stoppa ryssarnas maritima framstötar. Därför blev fokus för de militära operationerna de två flottbaserna Bomarsund på Åland och Sevastopol på Krim.Det finns mycket skrivet om Krimkriget. Den som vill läsa mer övergripande om kriget kan ta sig an Clive Pointings bok The Crimean War: The Truth Behind the Myth (2005). Operationerna i Östersjön är utredda av Basil Greenhill och Ann Giffard i deras bok The British Assault on Finland 1854-1855 (1988). På svenska finns en rikt illustrerad bok om anfallet på Bomarsunds fästning: Graham Robbins, Håkan Skogsjö och Jerker Örjans Bomarsund.

The Charge Of The Light Brigade (1854) is a famous poem by Alfred Lord Tennyson. It is about, among other things, the valor of soldiers and the tragic loss of life in futile war engagements. The war is the Crimean War (1853-1856) which Russia lost against a coalition of France, United Kingdom, the Ottoman Empire, and Sardinia. The battle is Balaclava, 25 October, 1854. The Light Brigade (United Kingdom) comprises cavalry officers and soldiers, mounted on smaller unarmored light fast horses and armed with sword and lance. Mobile and speedy, they were primarily intended for skirmishes and reconnaisances. They were ordered against a near impregnable Russian line of cannon, infantry, and cavalry. Tennyson wrote his poem after reading in The Times (14 November 1854) an account by war correspondent William Howard Russell of the tragic courage and tragic deaths caused by a miscommunication among commanders in the Crimean War. Forty years after its publication Rudyard Kipling wrote another poem about the parlous condition of survivors of the men of the Light Brigade, The Last Of The Light Brigade (1890). Much later (1885?) Tennyson wrote a not-nearly-so-well-known poem, The Charge Of The Heavy Brigade (recorded here but omitting the Prologue and Epilogue). The Heavy Brigade rode large heavy horses; the men wore metal helmets and fought with cavalry swords; they were intended as a close combat shock force. Both heavy and light brigades fought in this battle. Part 1 of this work contains all three poems and closes with a recording made in London in 1890; trumpeter Martin Landfrey plays the charge he sounded at the Charge Of The Light Brigade. Part 2 of this work contains an excerpt from Russell's book narrative (not the newspaper articles) of the battle. Part 3 of this work is an excerpt from The London Gazette (12 November 1854) , the official government publication in which important announcements were recorded (think the US Congressional Record). Here we read two reports of the battle from the commander of the Army (Lord Raglan) to the British War Department (The Duke of Newcastle). The notice also contains reports from three of Lord Raglan's sub-commanders, Lord Lucan commanding the Cavalry Division; General Colin Campbell; and General De Lacy Evans.

From the William Howard Russell reports to the Times Newspaper, Lord Tennysons famous poem, through to the deep analysis by Harpo, re-think the Battle of Balaklava, which occurred on the 25th October 1854, at 11am, and will forever by synonymous with The Charge of the Light Brigade. Never in the history of British military history will there be a tale of super courage and heroism by the common man, fatally mixed with the foolish arrogance and unprofessional leadership by aristocratic commanders.
