Eritrea/Etiopien seminarium

Välkomna att vara med på ett forskningsseminarium om Etiopien och Eritrea som är knutet till Johannelund med Staffan Grenstedt som ansvarig. Han är tidigre lärare på skolan och Högskolelektor i praktisk teologi och missionsvetenskap. Seminariet hålls på engelska.

It will be a seminar on mission history in Ethiopia. The title of the seminar is: “Question to discuss on the Swedish Evangelical Mission’s pioneer era (1898-1936) in Ethiopia.” The questions deal with my own ongoing research:
Longstanding relations. The Swedish Evangelical Mission in Ethiopia 1898-2015″. First respondent will be Rev. Paul Persson and Dr. Michael Ståhl will lead the seminar. Rev. Paul and I have an ongoing dialogue since some years on the SEM-Ethiopian historical interaction. We are right now scanning the SEM archives together and try to update our knowledge concerning the SEM in Ethiopia and its interaction with Ethiopia. It is really rewarding and fun for us!

My own presentation on October 6 will be an overview and lead into a discussion with some questions (to get the questions, please send an e-mail to staffangrenstedt@gmail.com). Paul and I reckon that we need a second seminar on November 3, when Paul will present some of the issues more in depth with a focus mainly on Nakamte, which is his main research area.

On December 1, our last seminar this semester, Professor Samuel Rubenson and Dr. Mengistu Gobezie, AAU, will present a project called: “Saving the Ethiopian medieval churches”.
