New Readings and Interpretations on the Inscribed Stele from Ḥənzat (HS1)
No full textIn 1974 the renowned Ethiopianist Lanfranco Ricci inspected the site of Ḥǝnzat in central Tǝgray. Inter alia, he inspected and photographed a stele with a lengthy inscription. In 2014, Yohannes Gebre Selassie published an article on an inscription which he labelled HS1, and which he believed to be a second inscription on a stele found in Ḥǝnzat. However, close inspection reveals that HS1 is the same stele which Ricci saw and described. The contribution here presents evidence to support this claim. In addition, some new interpretations are offered as alternatives to Yohannes Gebre Selassie’s first translation
Yoḥannǝs IV and the Patriarchate of Alexandria: Obtaining Four Coptic Bishops while Ceding Nothing on Jerusalem Issue (1876–1882)
No full textThis article connects two events that occurred in 1881: the arrival of four Coptic bishops in Ethiopia and the attempt by the Copts to remodel the Dayr al-Sulṭān monastery in Jerusalem. First, connecting these two events contradicts the idea that the Copts agreed to appoint four bishops without any compensation—on the contrary they sought a compensation in Jerusalem. Second, it sheds light on Yoḥannǝs’s diplomatic policy, which enabled him to thwart the Coptic ambitions in Jerusalem and to kill two birds with one stone: he obtained four Coptic bishops, while preserving the rights of the Ethiopians in Jerusalem, and this without any compensation to be given in exchange to the Copts or anyone else. This article shows that behind a friendship demonstrated at the time by Ethiopians and Copts were hidden elements of deep discord. It therefore suggests the need, in the future, to rethink the place to be given to the 1881 agreement in the history of relations between Copts and Ethiopians and its influence on subsequent events

Terre et Foi : Joël Robin, un écrivain paysan au soir d’une civilisation catholique
Get PDFLa crise et la disparition du monde paysan traditionnel sont traitées de diverses manières dans la littérature française contemporaine. Contrairement aux œuvres du nouveau roman régional, les œuvres régionalistes écrites du point de vue des paysans, eux-mêmes touchés par les changements structurels sont peu connues, voire inconnues. Avec Joël Robin, l’article présente un paysan écrivain de l’Ouest qui met en relation le déclin de la culture paysanne avec la sécularisation croissante. Considérant son écriture comme un « testament paysan » documenté sur les vertus paysannes pour les citadins et les générations suivantes, ses textes ancrés dans le régionalisme sont à la fois une célébration des petits paysans français, une transfiguration nostalgique du « bon vieux temps » et une analyse culturelle pessimiste de la société, et aboutissent finalement à un plaidoyer pour une durabilité et une écologie motivées par le christianisme.The crisis and the disappearance of the traditional peasant world are dealt with in many ways in contemporary French literature. In contrast to the works of the new regional novel, the regionalist works from the perspective of the writing peasants themselves affected by structural change are hardly known, if at all. With Joël Robin, the article presents a writing peasant from the French West who relates the decline of peasant culture to increasing secularisation. Understanding his writing as a “peasant testament” and documentation of peasant virtues for city dwellers and subsequent generations, his regionalist texts are both a praise of creation and the merits of French small farmers as well as a nostalgic transfiguration of the good old days and a culturally pessimistic social analysis, and finally culminate in a plea for Christian-motivated sustainability and ecology.La crise et la disparition du monde paysan traditionnel sont traitées de diverses manières dans la littérature française contemporaine.

Hide and Seek a Share: The Ethics of Sharing between Presence and Distance
Get PDFHiding and sharing things can go together. Haiǁom and other San hunter-gatherers in southern Africa are considered to be a group in which there is a lot of sharing. At the same time, hiding what could be shared is not rare. The ethnographic situation that I explore in this contribution is that of hiding tobacco and other consumables. What happens when Haiǁom divide their tobacco into two pouches, one for sharing with others and one that is kept hidden? I argue that creating presence but also maintaining a degree of distance characterise Haiǁom sharing practices and their way of dealing with numerous sharing demands in everyday interaction. At a comparative theoretical level, I argue that safeguarding minimal interpersonal distance is part of habitualising a performative ethical sense of how to share. In this context, trying to store things is not necessarily considered unethical as long as those who do still continue to be appropriately responsive to the demands made. What is at stake is the learnt judgement of when demands need to be fulfilled and when other responses are in order
