| Summary |
"Ma captivité en Abyssinie ... sous l'empereur Théodoros" by Henry Blanc is a historical account likely written in the late 19th century. The book narrates the author's experiences during his captivity in Abyssinia (modern-day Ethiopia) under the rule of Emperor Théodoros, alongside a portrayal of the emperor's life, policies, and the sociopolitical climate of the region. The opening of the work introduces the context of the author's imprisonment and outlines his intent to document the details of his experiences, as well as the emperor's character and governance. It delves into the rise of Théodoros, his military ambitions, personal relationships, and the socio-economic intricacies of his rule. The narrative sets the stage for exploring themes of power, ambition, and the intricate dynamics of European interactions with Abyssinian politics, specifically through the lens of the author's personal trials and observations during his captivity.
