Un semplice grido poteva terrorizzare i cuori dei nostri antenati sui litorali della penisola italiana: "Mamma, li turchi!" Un avvertimento che era presagio di sventura, morte e distruzione. Ma erano davvero così feroci i corsari ottomani che si avventavano sulle coste dell'Italia del '500? Le voci sul loro conto erano ingigantite? Oppure erano... edulcorate? Lo scopriremo oggi, percorrendo la sanguinosa storia di Turgut "Dragut" Reis, e non solo!
L'immagine tradizionale della Toscana dipinge una regione pacifica, dedicata alla bella vita, dai ritmi rilassati, dove tutti scherzano e ridono. Questa visione fa perdere la pazienza a noi toscani. Certo, in giro ci sono anche questi angoli pittoreschi ma la nostra terra è stata plasmata da secoli di guerre, combattute con violenza inaudita. Il carattere toscano è stato influenzato anche da una minaccia antica, quella dei pirati. Prima di entrare nell'immaginario collettivo nei caldi mari dei Caraibi, i pirati hanno terrorizzato per secoli gli abitanti della costa e delle isole toscane. Se nelle Americhe c'era il famigerato Barbanera, da noi i capitani erano meno pittoreschi ma decisamente più feroci. Le storie di Musetto, Barbarossa e Dragut Reis sono talmente incredibili da aver cambiato per sempre il carattere degli abitanti delle isole toscane. Sopravvivere al terrore turco li ha fatti più forti, più duri ma anche più pronti a cogliere il meglio della vita. Questa settimana vi racconteremo anche i tanti miti che circondano questi pirati, dalle storie sui tesori nascosti alle leggende che sono entrate per sempre nel folklore dell'Elba.

To celebrate the one year anniversary of our podcast, we have decided to tackle another stereotype linked to our beloved homeland, the one that paints it as a serene place, where the living is easy and people are always laughing. When foreigners think that Tuscany is like that, we locals get annoyed very quickly. Sure, you can find places like that around here but never forget that this land of ours was forged by centuries of wars, fought with unparalleled savagery. The mean streak in our national character was also the result of a threat that may surprise many foreigners, that of pirate raids. Way before finding their place in the world consciousness on the warm seas of the Caribbean, pirates were the scourge of the Tuscan seas for many centuries. If the Americas had Blackbeard, the Jolly Roger and many legends, around here there were pirate captains that would put them to shame. The stories of Musetto, Barbanera and Dragut Reis are so remarkable to have forever changed the mindset of the people that live in the islands off the coast of Tuscany. Surviving the Turkish terror made them stronger, harder, with a penchant for gallows humour and a taste for foods that seem to be taken from a North African cookbook. This week we will tell you their remarkable stories, the legends that spawned out of their raids and the many myths that surround their lost treasures.

"Det var et rimelig voldsomt, bebumset teenageoprør." Dragut Lugalzagosi er forsanger i rockbandet The Great Dictators (https://www.facebook.com/thegreatdictators/). Engang var han en oprørsk gymnasielev, der var træt af at være "normal" og skubbet ind i kasser. Han dansede rundt på bordene i kantinen, klædte sig ud som sin matematiklærer og sprang ud vinduet, hvis undervisningen kedede ham. De skøre påfund blev bestyrket af mødet med Pixies' "Where Is My Mind?". En sang, der fik ham til at føle sig som del af et fællesskab. Selvom det ikke var intentionen, endte den utilpassede Dragut som forbillede for andre på skolen. Og da han kom ud fra en mundtlig eksamen, stod selv rektor klar til at give ham en krammer... The Great Dictators er aktuelle med deres fjerde album One Eye Opener (https://shop.celebrationrecords.dk/product/the-great-dictators-one-eye-opener?fbclid=IwAR3aZ7dRWjvsd4gTRM9OXgEA-udmLt6EZYUAmnTGbk5REPglXQiJtLTL9NU) og singlen "By the Throat" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Jp0cLFZJsI) (feat.

This episode focuses on legendary admiral Dragut Reis, known as "The Drawn Sword of Islam", his role in the Ottoman navy, the Ottoman Mediterranean campaign and his legacy. #History #Podcast #WonderersHistoryPodcast
The start of the Siege of Malta in 1565, arrival of legendary Dragut Reis and the storming of the Fort of St. Elmo. Painting called Death of Dragut Reis by Giuseppe Cali.
In the wake of the death of Barbarossa a number of corsairs vied for his position, but only one commander commanded the respect of the men, the trust of the Sultan, and the love of the late Khizr. Turgut Reis became known in Europe as Dragut. On Barbary he was called The Drawn Sword of Islam.
Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the event of which Voltaire, two hundred years later, said 'nothing was more well known'. In 1565, Suleiman the Magnificent, the Ottoman leader, sent a great fleet west to lay siege to Malta and capture it for his empire. Victory would mean control of trade across the Mediterranean and a base for attacks on Spain, Sicily and southern Italy, even Rome. It would also mean elimination of Malta's defenders, the Knights Hospitaller, driven by the Ottomans from their base in Rhodes in 1522 and whose raids on his shipping had long been a thorn in his side. News of the Great Siege of Malta spread fear throughout Europe, though that turned to elation when, after four months of horrific fighting, the Ottomans withdrew, undermined by infighting between their leaders and the death of the highly-valued admiral, Dragut. The Knights Hospitaller had shown that Suleiman's forces could be contained, and their own order was reinvigorated. The image above is the Death of Dragut at the Siege of Malta (1867), after a painting by Giuseppe Cali. Dragut (1485 1565) was an Ottoman Admiral and privateer, known as The Drawn Sword of Islam and as one of the finest generals of the time.
