Born in 1804, Chaldean author Maria Theresa Asmar offers a captivating firsthand account of her travels through Mesopotamia, Syria, Lebanon, and Jerusalem in her acclaimed memoir. Asmar, known in Europe as a Babylonian Princess, provides a rare perspective on the Ottoman Empire's harem system and her time with the Bedouin. She traveled to France, England, and Italy and met with prominent individuals, including Queen Victoria and the Pope. This new edition, rewritten by Weam Namou, includes Asmar's full work Prophecy and Lamentation, providing additional context and insight into the pivotal era and experiences of a woman who crossed cultural boundaries.
