Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

In early February 1885, the reports of the tragic fate of the General Charles George "Chinese" Gordon came out of the blue. The whole British society was suddenly shaken and in a state of shock. For a year's time, they had been informed with vigorous regularity about Gordon's defence of the civilization in Khartoum all by his self against the barbarous and fanatical Mahdi - and all of a sudden, everything was over. In the eyes of the British, in a single day, his demise made of him one of the best knownheroes of the Victorian era, disposing naturally of all of the imperial virtues.
