A History of Ethiopia: Volume II (Routledge Revivals) : Nubia and Abyssinia Paperback / softback
by E. A. Wallis Budge
Part of the Routledge Revivals series
Paperback / softback
Description
This is the second volume of Sir E. A. Wallis Budge’s narrative account of Ethiopian history, and continues the chronicle of the Kings of Abyssinia where the first volume ended: the death of Lebna Dengel in 1540. The list of kings ends with the Regent Ras Tafari, who still reigned at the time of first publication in 1928.
Thereafter, the author devotes considerable attention to an overview of the cultural, social and political idiosyncrasies of the Ethiopian people: literature, spells and magic, architecture, ethnography, the alphabet, and a wide range of other engrossing topics.
This material complements the narrative history, helping to situate the deeds of the kings and the fortunes of their people in a broader context.
