A Description of the Ethiopic Literature heritage through the Travels of the Orientalist James Bruce: An Analytical and Literary Study.

The purpose of this paper is to expose the Ethiopic Literature heritage through scrutinizing the journey and travels of the European explorer and Orientalist James Bruce at Ethiopia in the late 18th century. The descriptions of Bruce’s travels are diverse and reflect valuable events as they shed light upon important historical, social, geographic, and political facts concerning the Ethiopians through the analysis of popular literature as Bruce was also an important collector of old Abyssinian manuscripts.
