Summary: "En Turquie d'Asie : notes de voyage en Anatolie" by Edmond Dutemple is a travel narrative written in the late 19th century. The work documents the author's observations and experiences as he travels through Anatolia, exploring culture, society, and geography, with a particular focus on the city of Brousse and its significance in the Ottoman Empire. It promises insights into both the region’s historical context and the everyday lives of its inhabitants. The opening of the book sets a reflective tone as the author distinguishes his journey from typical Oriental travelogues, emphasizing the enduring characteristics of the region rather than the fleeting impressions often captured by other travelers. Dutemple describes Brousse as a city rich in history and culture, while contrasting its beautiful exterior, marked by elegant mosques, with its less appealing interior, filled with narrow streets and dilapidated buildings. He introduces readers to the bustling daily life within Brousse, from the vibrant markets to the interactions among different communities, while also hinting at the complexities of social relations, particularly between Muslims and Christians. This opening portion effectively establishes the author's intent to delve deep into the realities of Asian Turkey, rather than merely glossing over its picturesque attractions.
