Aethiopica 08 (2005) International Journal of Ethiopian and Eri- Trean Studies Aethiopica 08 (2005) International Journal of Ethiopian and Eri- trean Studies ________________________________________________________________ VERENA BÖLL – DENIS NOSNITSIN – THOMAS RAVE – WOLBERT SMIDT – EVGENIA SOKOLINSKAIA (eds.), Universität Hamburg Article Index to Studia Aethiopica Aethiopica 08 (2005), 184–206 ISSN: 1430–1938 ________________________________________________________________ Published by Universität Hamburg Asien Afrika Institut, Abteilung Afrikanistik und Äthiopistik Hiob Ludolf Zentrum für Äthiopistik Index to Studia Aethiopica* The Festschrift dedicated to Siegbert Uhlig appeared in February 2004. Due to space limitations it was unfortunately impossible to include a register with the anthology. We therefore were forced to publish the index regis- tering all names and oriental notions separately.** At last, after for over a year it has only been available from the Internet pages of the Harrassowitz Verlag (http://www.harrassowitz.de/verlag/aethiop/SAE-Index.pdf), we have received the possibility to have it printed. We are grateful to the edi- tors of the AETHIOPICA journal for offering us this opportunity. At this point we would also like to thank Valery Yordanov Kolev and Gianfrancesco Lusini for their help in the compilation of the index. ʿAbdarraḥman b.

This paper is based on an analysis of a corpus of composite sources. We will compare the statements explaining the history of the construction of the church in the sources written after the death of the queen to the records produced when she was alive.

  • Medieval Hebrew Texts and European River Names Ephraim Nissan London [email protected]
    ONOMÀSTICA 5 (2019): 187–203 | RECEPCIÓ 8.3.2019 | ACCEPTACIÓ 18.9.2019 Medieval Hebrew texts and European river names Ephraim Nissan London [email protected] Abstract: The first section of theBook of Yosippon (tenth-century Italy) maps the Table of Nations (Genesis 10) onto contemporary peoples and places and this text, replete with tantalizing onomastics, also includes many European river names. An extract can be found in Elijah Capsali’s chronicle of the Ottomans 1517. The Yosippon also includes a myth of Italic antiquities and mentions a mysterious Foce Magna, apparently an estuarine city located in the region of Ostia. The article also examines an onomastically rich passage from the medieval travelogue of Benjamin of Tudela, and the association he makes between the river Gihon (a name otherwise known in relation to the Earthly Paradise or Jerusalem) and the Gurganin or the Georgians, a people from the Caspian Sea. The river Gihon is apparently what Edmund Spenser intended by Guyon in his Faerie Queene. The problems of relating the Hebrew spellings of European river names to their pronunciation are illustrated in the case of the river Rhine. Key words: river names (of the Seine, Loire, Rhine, Danube, Volga, Dnieper, Po, Ticino, Tiber, Arno, Era, Gihon, Guyon), Kiev, medieval Hebrew texts, Book of Yosippon, Table of Nations (Genesis 10), historia gentium, mythical Foce Magna city, Benjamin of Tudela, Elijah Capsali, Edmund Spenser Textos hebreus medievals i noms de rius europeus Resum: L’inici del Llibre de Yossippon (Itàlia, segle X) relaciona la «taula de les nacions» de Gènesi 10 amb pobles i llocs contemporanis, i aquest text, ple de propostes onomàstiques temptadores, també inclou noms fluvials europeus.

NUMBER 19 • THE JUDAIC STUDIES PROGRAM OFVIRGINIA COMMONWEALTH UNIVERSITY • SUMMER 1990 For the Enrichment of Jewish Thought cal writers interpreted history as the record that the Rabbis "possessed no conception of of God's special relationship with Israel, the development of ideas or institutions," which he rewards for its obedience and Meyer offers in evidence the fact that the punishes forits sins. Uninterested in histori­ latter insisted that the Oral Law as well as the cal events as important in themselves, the written Torah had its origin at Sinai. One biblical writers were more concerned with wonders if this is a fair indictment of the interpretingthe record of history as evidence Rabbis. Can it not be said that having been of God's presence in world affairs. History traumatized by the loss of the Temple and thereby became a witness pointing to the the J udean state, they were more concerned truth of God's actions and therefore became with preserving the integrity of the halakha, a requirement in the life of Israel, God's "the Jew's City of God" (in Meyer's words) people.

  • As We Have Said Earlier, the Translation of Josephus' History of the Jewish War Was Made in the Era of Kievan Russia No Later Than the 11 Th Century
    84 JOSEPHUS' JEWISH WAR AND ITS SLAVONIC VERSION XIV THE HEBREW JOSIPPON; DESCRIPTION; TRANSLATIONS; COMPARISON OF HEBREW AND SLAVONIC VERSIONS OF AN EPISODE FROM THE ROMANCE OF ALEXANDER; 1RACES OF HEBRAIC INFLUENCE IN THE SLAVONIC VERSION; 1RACES OF THE JOSIPPON IN OLD RUSSIAN LITERATURE. As we have said earlier, the translation of Josephus' History of the Jewish War was made in the era of Kievan Russia no later than the 11 th century. At almost the same time in Old Russian literature, its particular literary rival and competitor appeared in the form of an Old Russian version of the Hebrew book Josippon which goes back directly to the original. The Josippon is a mediaeval chronograph written in artificial, bookish Old Hebrew at a later date than is usually assumed, no earlier than the latter half of the 10th century by Jews living in Italy. It is thought that the Josippon appeared no earlier than 962, as certain of its copies contain a reference to the date of the coronation of Holy Roman Emperor Otto I, which took place in that year.139 The chronography of this work takes in events of world history from the point of view of Judaic religious exclusivity, beginning with the division of languages after the building of the Tower of Babel and ending with the capture of Jerusalem during the reign of the Roman emperor Titus in AD 70. It is divided into six separate books. Book I contains an exposition of events to the first capture of Jerusalem by the Babylonian emperor Nebuchadnezzar in 593 BC; Book II takes the story up to the conquest of Palestine by Alexander the Great, Book III relates the story of the Maccabees and their struggle against the dominion of the Seleucid emperor, Antiochus Epiphanus; Book IV consists of tales about the reigns of the Hasmonaeans and Herod; Book V relates events prior to the war of AD 66-70 and the beginning of the war in Galilee; Book VI, like Books V-VII of the History of the Jewish War includes the story of the final capture of Jerusalem by the Romans and their decisive suppression of the revolt.

  • Land Tenure and Agrarian Social Structure in Ethiopia, 1636-1900
    LAND TENURE AND AGRARIAN SOCIAL STRUCTURE IN ETHIOPIA, 1636-1900 BY HABTAMU MENGISTIE TEGEGNE DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2011 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Emeritus Donald Crummey, Chair Associate Professor Carol Symes Professor Emeritus Charles Stewart Assistant Professor James Brennan Associate Professor Kenneth Cuno Abstract Most scholars have viewed property in pre-modern Ethiopia in ―feudal‖ terms analogous to medieval Europe. According to them, Ethiopia‘s past property arrangement had been in every respect archaic implying less than complete property rights, for, unlike in modern liberal societies, it vested no ownership or ―absolute‖ rights in a single individual over a material object. By draining any notions of ownership right, historians therefore characterized the forms of property through which the Ethiopian elites supported themselves as ―fief-holding‖ or rights of lordship, which merely entitled them to collect tribute from the subject peasantry. By using land registers, surveys, charters, and private property transactions, which I collected from Ethiopian churches and monasteries, this dissertation challenges this conception of property in premodern Ethiopia by arguing that Ethiopian elites did exercise ownership rights over the land, thus providing them a means by which to control the peasantry. Through the concepts of rim (a form of private property in land exclusively held by social elites) and zéga (a hitherto unrecognized serf-like laborers), I explore the economic and social relationship between rulers and ruled that defined political culture in premodern Ethiopia.
