	Insight: Encounters with Ali Pasha
		Ali was descended from a line of bandit leaders who had risen to local high status in the Ottoman Empire.
		Ali was a gracious host, a shrewd politician, a brave military leader, and a learned man; at the same time he was a cruel and brutal despot whose murders and sexual depredations reached legendary proportions.
		Impressed as he was with Ali as a host, Byron had already encountered evidence for his "most horrible cruelties." According to Hobhouse, the two visitors had discovered strung up around Ioannina the dismembered body of Evthymios Vlachavas, a Greek bandit tortured to death on Ali's command shortly before their arrival.

		Ali’s disposition was too much like that of his father-in-law to prevent him from taking his measure very quickly. He soon got on good terms with him, and entered into his schemes, waiting for an opportunity to denounce him and become his successor. For this opportunity he had not long to wait.
		Ali, in terror, demanded a thousand pieces of gold, put them in a white satin purse, and himself hastened with them to overtake the sheik, imploring him to recall his threats. But Yussuf deigned no answer, and arrived at the threshold of the palace, shook off the dust of his feet against it.
		Ali returned to his apartment sad and downcast, and many days elapsed before he could shake off the depression caused by this scene. But soon he felt more ashamed of his inaction than of the reproaches which had caused it, and on the first opportunity resumed his usual mode of life.
