Abstract

The outbreak of the so-called Ilinden Uprising drew attention of the European public. However, the revolt of the Christians of this province seem to have had the biggest impact on the public opinion and officials in Great Britain. The uprising was especially popular with the press, which loudly condemned brutal acts of the Turkish army and irregular forces, and showed great sympathies towards the rebels and the oppressed population. Numerous well known Englishmen published their opinions and columns in favor of the Christian population. One of the most agile ones was the journalist Noel Buxton. The most influential newspapers sent their special and war reporters to the scene of the conflict. All of them sent dramatic reports on horrible crimes and repression, which additionally homogenized the public opinion in favor of the rebellion. Well respected scientists and travelers also traveled in these months to the rebel area, and they also left precious information about the extent of the uprising, casualties, and destruction.
