Alak' a Tayya (an early 20th-cent. Ethiopian scholar. The only
indication as to A.T.'s possible authorship is a note on the front
fly-leaf (written in Italian in an Ethiopian hand). The same fly-leaf
also contains a fragmentary list of contents in Italian.)

Description/Scope and Content
-
Contents: An apologetic-homiletic discussion allegedly written by Alak' a Tayya, an early 20th-cent. Ethiopian scholar. The only indication as to A.T.'s possible authorship is a note on the front fly-leaf (written in Italian in an Ethiopian hand). The same fly-leaf also contains a fragmentary list of contents in Italian. Writings on religion rather than religious writings... Maybe not such a good fit...
