- Abstract
Among the independence movements that took place in various regions of the world in the 19th century, the most remarkable one was the resistance of the tribes of the North Caucasus mountains against the Russian army that occupied their lands. This resistance, has turned into the war of independence and freedom of the North Caucasus under the leadership of Imam Shamil. The Europeans learned this resistance movement from memories of the travelers who came to visit Caucasus. In the scientific research conducted in the following years on this subject, although occasional Russian, Ottoman and British official documents were included, based on the memories of European travelers. On the other hand, the news and commentary in the newspapers in the same period were not included or a few examples are mentioned, which revealed a significant gap in the literature. The aim of this study is to fill this gap. For this purpose, 11 newspapers published in England in the period from 1853 to the year 1859, when Shamil was surrendered, were scanned and while the events of the period were being analyzed, news and comments in these newspapers were evaluated together with other Western sources.
