It includes the study of Ethiopian and Eritrean [[arts]] and the history and [[theology]] of the [[Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church\|Ethiopian Orthodox Church]]. The classical core of Ethiopian and Eritrean studies is the philology of the written sources of [[Christianity\|Christian]] Ethiopia and Eritrea and [[Ethiopian Semitic languages\|Ethio-semitic linguistics]]. While this approach is still alive and has its role, Ethiopian and Eritrean studies has opened to a wider concept that tries to avoid a bias in favour of the Christian Abyssinian culture ([[Amhara people\|Amhara]], [[~~Tigray-~~Tigrinya people\|Tigrinya]]; ''cf''. [[Habesha people]]). It includes the study of the other [[Afro-Asiatic languages\|Afro-Asiatic]] languages and cultures of Ethiopia and Eritrea besides those of Ethio-semitic derivation; the nation's non-Afro-Asiatic languages and cultures, including the [[Southern Nations, Nationalities, and People's Region\|southern Ethiopian]] cultures; non-Christian faiths, comprising [[Islam in Ethiopia]] and [[Islam in Eritrea\|Eritrea]] and traditional religions; social and political sciences; as well as contemporary issues like environment and development studies.<ref>{{Cite web\|title=Ethiopia - Ethnic groups and languages\|url=https://www.britannica.com/place/Ethiopia\|access-date=2021-05-21\|website=Encyclopedia Britannica\|language=en}}</ref> ==Institute of Ethiopian Studies== Line 11 ⟶ 13: ==Conferences== Ethiopian and Eritrean studies scholars congregate at the interdisciplinary International Conference of Ethiopian Studies, a series of gatherings that takes place every three years. Traditionally, every third conference is held in Ethiopia. The 19th meeting was in Warsaw, August 24–28, 2015. The 20th conference was in [[Mek'ele\|Mekelle]], Ethiopia, in 2018.
