፦ In the prologue, the distinguished scholar Manuel de Guèz, gives us some pointers on the Abyssinian Syllabary.
፦ The Abyssinian Syllabary spells out the history of Ethiopia through a series of 33 biographical vignettes of emblematic Ethiopian lives – with each life corresponding to one of the main 33 symbols of the Abyssinian Syllabary – or Abugida.

Yves-Marie Stranger, the editor of Ethiopia through writers' eyes (Eland Books), is the compiler of these Abyssinian lives.

፦ Spelling out the many lives of Victor Lazlo [ገ], Rimbaud [ዐ], King Théodore [ከ], the Monk Théodore [የ], Munziger Pasha [ወ], Alessandro Zorzi [ሰ], Arab Faquih [ሸ], Leonard Cohen [ፀ], Umm Delombera [ተ], Menfus Kiddus [ሠ] and more…
