Ato Demeke Berhane mentions the long history of literature in Ethiopia, describes the animal skins from which Ethiopian manuscripts were made, and discusses how local people wrote information about their lives in the margins of existing manuscripts. He then goes through an eighteenth-century Ethiopian manuscript, a book of prayer, page by page, explaining various aspects of Ethiopian orthography, illumination, and symbols. Wendy Belcher filmed this interview with the Head of the Manuscript and Archives Department at the Institute of Ethiopian Studies at Addis Ababa University, on May 10, 2007.

Ato Demeke Berhane shows and discusses Ethiopian manuscripts in Ge'ez, pointing out aspects of their binding, wooden board covers, cloth backings, cloth cotton covers to protect illuminations, and changing numbers, on a fifteenth-century manuscript. He also discuses the use of color in the particular manuscript, pointing out that all the persons--Jesus, saints, the Virgin Mary--are black. He discusses the importance of studying these manuscripts, their technology, calligraphy, paleography, and symbols for understanding Ethiopian history, literature, languages, cultures, and philosophy. Using a manuscript restored by an Italian expert, he points out the placement and meaning of marginal notes, decorative designs, leather exteriors, materials used in making the books. He spends time on a late-seventeenth-century manuscript, which includes an illumination of St Raphael, showing the good men protected by him, his wings, and variation in decorative borders from other styles; an illumination of King David who is using a fly whisk and has servants wearing combs in their hair; and an illumination of two Ethiopian saints including Saint Takla Haymanot. These manuscripts are mines of information about many subjects, Demeke concludes. Wendy Belcher conducted the interview with the Head of the Manuscript and Archives Department at the Institute of Ethiopian Studies at Addis Ababa University on May 10, 2007.

Ato Demeke Berhane explains that the benefit of the Institute of Ethiopian Studies archive is that it houses what should be considered not just the treasures of Ethiopia, but of the world. To study Ethiopia is to study the world and to understand its ancient alphabet and literature a way of understanding much beyond Ethiopia. Thus the department is a custodian of world heritage.

www.sudanesevideo.net A lot of African traditional music is or was performed by professional musicians. Some of it is belong to court music or sacral music traditions, therefore the term "folk" music is not always appropriate. Nevertheless, both the terms "folk music" and "traditional music" can be found in the literature. Sub-Saharan African folk music and traditional music is mostly functional in nature. There are, for example, many different kinds of work songs, ceremonial or religious music and courtly music performed at royal courts, but none of these are performed outside of their intended social context. Music is highly functional in African ethnic life, accompanying childbirth, marriage, hunting, and even political activities. Similarities with other cultures, particularly Indian and Middle Eastern, can be ascribed primarily to the spread of Islam

The searing and powerful story of one man's search for redemption from the prizewinning author of THE BEAUTIFUL THINGS THAT HEAVEN BEARS. Dinaw Mengestu's first novel, The Beautiful Things That Heaven Bears, earned the young writer comparisons to Bellow, Fitzgerald, and Naipaul, and garnered ecstatic critical praise and awards around the world for its haunting depiction of the immigrant experience. Now Mengestu enriches the themes that defined his debut with a heartbreaking literary masterwork about love, family, and the power of imagination, which confirms his reputation as one of the brightest talents of his generation. One early September afternoon, Yosef and Mariam, young Ethiopian immigrants who have spent all but their first year of marriage apart, set off on a road trip from their new home in Peoria, Illinois, to Nashville, Tennessee, in search of a new identity as an American couple. Soon, their son, Jonas, will be born in Illinois. Thirty years later, Yosef has died, and Jonas needs to make sense of the volatile generational and cultural ties that have forged him. How can he envision his future without knowing what has come before? Leaving behind his marriage and job in New York, Jonas sets out to retrace his mother and father's trip and weave together a family history that will take him from the war-torn Ethiopia of his parents' youth to his life in the America of today, a story-real or invented- that holds the possibility of reconciliation and redemption.

MEZGEBU Painter His works after 1991 reflect a new trend in Ethiopian contemporary art. Mezgebu has a strong desire for modern life but one of the things that fascinate him is rural Ethiopia and its folks rather than urban Ethiopia. This fascination asserts itself in almost all his works. His visual manifesto becomes to depict the Ethiopian peasants in all his composure, Ethiopians in contemporary situations, and Ethiopians realistically as never before. It is not historical, religious, legendary or heroic in the traditional sense. Subjects were not taken from the Holy Book, from the palace or from the ideal and romantic literature or from a revolutionary rhetoric. It is not even from the activists' concept of the peasants and rural life. Mezgebu depicts realistically and symbolically folks who have seldom been given their due place in the last hundred years artistic culture of the nation, just as they have been denied their place in the political and social decision making of the country for centuries. These are the peasants, so many in number, who gave so much for so many centuries. Esseye G Medhin
