EDITORS COMMENTS
The Mystic City of Mosul: A Topical Page from The Graphic (1923) Mosul, an ancient city located in northern Iraq and a significant cultural and historical hub in Mesopotamia, continues to be a subject of intrigue and political complexity in the 1920s. In this topical page from The Graphic, published in October 1923, the article ponders the question, "Is a settlement with the Turks in sight?" The captivating image showcases the enchanting walls of Mosul, a testament to the city's rich history and its unique blend of Middle Eastern and Turkish influences. The caption acknowledges that Mosul is "one of the knotty problems of the Near East which has yet to be solved," as the city had been under Turkish control since the Ottoman Empire's decline, but the League of Nations had recently granted a mandate to the British to administer the region. The political landscape of the Middle East was in a state of flux, with various powers vying for influence and control. The Turkish nationalists, led by Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, were determined to reclaim Mosul and other territories lost during the war. The British, on the other hand, were keen to maintain their presence in the region to secure their strategic interests. The article in The Graphic reflects the uncertainty and tension surrounding Mosul's future, as the negotiations between the Turks and the British were ongoing. The mystical allure of the city's walls only adds to the intrigue, as the fate of this ancient metropolis hung in the balance. The question of whether a settlement with the Turks was in sight remained unanswered, leaving readers on the edge of their seats as they awaited the outcome of this complex political situation.
