Historien skrives av seierherrene. Men trenger vi ikke også å høre historien fra den andre siden, fra vanlige mennesker fanget midt i historiens omveltninger, tvunget til å velge side, eller bare forsøke å overleve? Til de som forvises til fotnotene i historiebøkene, eller som aldri nevnes.Dette kan sies å være utgangspunktet i romanene til sudansk-skotske Leila Aboulela og etiopisk-amerikanske Maaza Mengiste, som begge skriver med utgangspunkt i sine hjemlands historiske begivenheter.I Aboulelas nye roman River Spirit er bakteppet den dramatiske tiden i Sudans historie på slutten av 1800-tallet. I løpet av få år gikk landet gjennom flere okkupasjoner og en blodig revolusjon anført av en mann som påsto å være al-Mahdi (islams Messias). Gjennom et flettverk av ulike stemmer som havner på ulike sider i konfliktene, og med den foreldreløse ungjenta Akuany som omdreiningspunkt, tar Aboulela oss med gjennom Sudans nyere historie.En ung, fattig kvinne er også sentral i Maaza Mengistes roman Skyggekongen (til norsk ved Hilde Stubhaug), som forteller historien om da Etiopia i 1935 ble invadert av Mussolinis Italia. Fortalt fra så forskjellige perspektiver som Etiopias keiser Haile Selassie, den italienske soldaten Ettore og tjenestejenta Hirut, gir romanen et mangefasettert bilde av begivenhetene. Mengiste har selv sagt at hun var særlig opptatt av å utforske kvinnenes rolle i motstandskampen.Mengiste er født i Etiopia, og bor i dag i USA. Hun har utforsket Etiopias historie i begge sine kritikerroste romaner, debuten Beneath the Lion's Gaze og Skyggekongen, sistnevnte ble kortlistet til den prestisjetunge Booker-prisen. Mengiste har også gjort seg bemerket som fotograf og essayist.Aboulela er født i Sudan, og bor i dag i Skottland. Hun har utgitt en rekke prisvinnende romaner, novellesamlinger og skuespill. River Spirit er første roman i en planlagt serie som utforsker Skottlands rolle i britenes kolonisering av Sudan.På Litteraturhuset møter Aboulela og Mengiste forfatter og kunstnerisk leder for Radical Books Collective, Bhakti Shringarpure, til samtale om å skrive historiske romaner, og om å løfte fram kvinners og hverdagsmenneskers opplevelser i den store historien.

History is written by the victorious. But do we not also need to hear the story from the other side, from ordinary people caught in the middle of historical upheavals, forced to pick a side, or just try to survive? To those relegated to the footnotes in the history books, or not mentioned at all.This can be said to be the starting point for the novels of Sudanese-Scottish Leila Aboulela and Ethiopian-American Maaza Mengiste, both writing about historical events in their home countries.The backdrop in Aboulela's new novel River Spirit is the dramatic time in the Sudan's history in the late 19th century. In the span of just a few years, the country underwent several occupations, as well as a bloody revolution led by a man claiming to be al-Mahdi (the Islamic Messiah). Through a multitude of voices from different sides of the conflicts, and with the young orphaned girl Akuany as a turning point, Aboulela leads us through a central historical time in the Sudan.A young, poor woman is also central in Maaza Mengiste's The Shadow King, telling the story of 1935 Ethiopia invaded by Mussolini's Italy. Told from as different perspectives as Ethiopia's emperor Haile Selassie, the Italian soldier Ettore and the servant girl Hirut, the novel offers a complex picture of the events. Mengiste has emphasized that she was particularly interested in exploring women's role in the resistance movement.Mengiste was born in Ethiopia, and is currently living in the United States. She has explored Ethiopia's recent history in both her critically acclaimed novels Beneath the Lion's Gaze and The Shadow King, with the latter shortlisted for the prestigious Booker Prize. Mengiste has also made her mark as a photographer and an essayist.Aboulela was born in the Sudan, today she lives in Scottland. She has published a number of award winning novels, short story collections and plays. River Spirit is the first novel in a planned series exploring Scotland's role in the British colonization of the Sudan.At the House of Literature, Aboulela and Mengiste meet writer and creative director of the Radical Books Collective, Bhakti Shringarpure, for a conversation about writing historical fiction, and about foregrounding the stories of women and ordinary people within big historical events.

Ungjenta Hirut får tjeneste hos et rikt par, men havner snart i sentrum for parets mange krangler, sjalusi og sorg over tapet av et barn. Vi befinner oss i Etiopia på 1930-tallet. Bedre blir det ikke når Italia med Mussolini i spissen invaderer landet, og Hiruts herre må lede en motstandshær. Kona nekter å sitte hjemme og vente på mannen, og danner sin egen styrke, av kvinner. I hovedstaden forsøker keiser Selassie å drukne ute den prekære virkeligheten med lyden av opera.I romanen The Shadow King har forfatter Maaza Mengiste tatt utgangspunkt i et sentralt kapittel i etiopisk historie, og sin egen familiehistorie. Hun tar oss med inn i fortellingene til tjenestejenta Hirut og husfruen hennes, men også til hærføreren Kidane, den italienske soldaten Ettore og keiser Haile Selassie. Resultatet er en flerstemt roman som utfyller bildet om Etiopias motstandskrig, om enkeltmenneskenes liv i den store historien.Mengiste ble født i Etiopia, men familien hennes forlot landet på slutten av 70-tallet, under den etiopiske revolusjonen, som er tema i debutromanen Beneath the Lion's Gaze. Både debuten og The Shadow King har begeistret kritikere, og har blitt oversatt til en rekke språk.Sofi Oksanen har, i likhet med Mengiste, skrevet fiksjon ut fra historiske hendelser, blant annet fra et Sovjet-okkupert Øst-Europa under andre verdenskrig i romanene Stalins kyr og Utrenskning. Også her står kvinnenes erfaringer sentralt.Nå er det igjen krig, både i Etiopia og i Ukraina. Sofi Oksanen møter Maaza Mengiste til en samtale om litteraturens rolle i å hjelpe oss med å forstå historien og vår egen samtid.Samtalen er på engelsk.Litteraturhusets satsning på afrikansk litteratur er støttet av NORAD.

The young girl Hirut starts working for a wealthy couple, but is soon brought into their many quarrels, their jealousy and grief over the loss of a child. This is Ethiopia in the 1930s. Things go from bad to worse when Italy, led by Mussolini, invades the country, and Hirut's master is tasked with organizing an opposition army. His wife refuses to wait at home for him, and creates her own force, made up by women. In the capital, emperor Selassie attempts to shut out the dire situation through the sound of opera.In her novel The Shadow King, Maaza Mengiste takes as her starting point a central chapter in the history of Ethiopia , as well as her own family history. She invites us into the realities of the servant Hirut and her madame, but also that of the army leader Kidane, the Italian soldier Ettore and the emperor Haile Selassie. The result is a polyphonic novel that broadens our perceptions of the Ethiopian-Italian war and the lives of human beings in this great history.Mengiste was born in Ethiopia, but her family left the country in the late 70s, during the Ethiopian revolution, which is central in her debut novel Beneath the Lion's Gaze. Both her debut and The Shadow King has received great critical acclaim, and been translated into numerous languages.Sofi Oksanen has, like Mengiste, created fiction from historical events, such as a Soviet-occupied Eastern Europe during the second world war in her novels Purge and Stalin's Cows. Here, too, the experiences of women are central to the stories.Now, both Ethiopia and Ukraine are at war again. Sofi Oksanen will join Maaza Mengiste for a conversation about the role of literature in helping us understand history and the times we live in.The House of Literature's project to promote African literature is supported by NORAD.

Maaza Mengiste är Sverigeaktuell med "Skuggkungen" som kastar ljus på de kvinnliga soldater som skrivits ut ur den afrikanska och europeiska historien. Den är en hjärtskärande, oförglömlig skildring av vad det innebär att vara kvinna i krig. Romanen gavs ut i svensk översättning av Örjan Sjögren på Bokförlaget Tranan hösten 2022. Maaza Mengistes föddes i Addis Abeba, Etiopien, men bor numera i New York. Hon skriver regelbundet i bland annat New Yorker, Granta och New York Times. "Skuggkungen" är hennes andra roman efter debuten "Under lejonets blick" från 2010. "Skuggkungen" utspelar sig i Etiopien 1935. Med hotet om Mussolinis styrkors antågande hängande över dalen försöker Hirut, som nyligen förlorat sina föräldrar, anpassa sig till livet som barnflicka hos Kidane, som är officer i kejsar Haile Selassies armé. Han är i full färd med att mobilisera sina starkaste män inför italienarnas invasion. Men när de dåligt utrustade och illa tränade etiopiska styrkorna förlorar slag efter slag och kejsaren till slut går i exil, så är det Hirut som har en plan för hur folket ska hålla hoppet vid liv. Hon klär ut en jordbruksarbetare till Selassie för att hålla kampen vid liv, och blir sedan själv den falske kejsarens vakt, vilket inspirerar andra kvinnor att ansluta till kampen mot fascismen. "Skuggkungen" är en extraordinärt berättad episk roman baserad på årtal av research som följer den inspirerande Hirut genom fångenskap och tortyr mot den stora upprättelsen.

Invitata lui Filip Standavid este scriitoarea Maaza Mengiste, autoarea romanului Umbra regelui, nominalizat la prestigiosul Booker Prize, povestea extraordinară femeilor-soldat din Etiopia care au ținut piept invaziei fasciste din anii 30. ____________ Cartea anului pentru THE NEW YORK TIMES, GUARDIAN, ELLE, TIME, SPECTATOR Povestea femeilor-soldat care l-au înfruntat pe Mussolini. Un capitol șters din istoria Africii. O luptă care a devenit legendă. Etiopia, 1935. Hirut este orfană și lucrează ca servitoare în căminul lui Kidane, ofițer în armata Împăratului Haile Selassie. Când armatele lui Mussolini se apropie, bărbații trebuie să se mobilizeze. Însă Hirut și celelalte femei își doresc să facă mai mult pentru cauza războiului decât să aibă grijă de răniți și să îngroape morții. Când împăratul fuge și totul pare pierdut pentru Etiopia, Hirut vine cu o idee salvatoare: ca să nu-i lase pe soldați să-și piardă speranța, un țăran blând e deghizat să ia locul împăratului, iar ea devine garda lui de corp, inspirând tot mai multe femei să lupte pentru țara lor. https://nemira.ro/umbra-regelui-maaza-mengiste
Shortlisted for the Booker Prize, The Shadow King is a powerful, poetic book about women soldiers during the Italian Ethiopian war of 1935, the first main conflict of World War II. Drawing on the life of Maaza's own grandmother, it tells the story of Hirut, whose daring plan saves morale when Emperor Selassie goes into exile, only to end up a prisoner of one of Italy's most brutal officers. A captivating study of female power with an indelible, inspirational heroine at its heart. Chaired by Linda Jaivin

With the threat of Mussolini's army looming, recently orphaned Hirut struggles to adapt to her new life as a maid. Her new employer, Kidane, an officer in Emperor Haile Selassie's army, rushes to mobilise his strongest men before the Italians invade. Hirut and the other women long to do more than care for the wounded and bury the dead. When Emperor Haile Selassie goes into exile and Ethiopia quickly loses hope, it is Hirut who offers a plan to maintain morale. She helps disguise a gentle peasant as the emperor and soon becomes his guard, inspiring other women to take up arms. But how could she have predicted her own personal war, still to come, as a prisoner of one of Italy's most vicious officers? The Shadow King is a gorgeously crafted and unputdownable exploration of female power, and what it means to be a woman at war.

It’s our ‘Chai’ episode! We started it off talking about Italian Eurocommunism and the Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs (CIJA). We were then joined by Josh Nathan Kazis, a staff writer at the Jewish Daily Forward, to talk about a growing scandal in New York City politics, reaching from the Mayor’s office to the orthodox communities of Borough Park and Williamsburg. This episode contained a description-free Shkoyach, featuring discussions of kosher labelling, kosher restaurant month, and the contentious subject of raisin challah. For the interview, we talked about the Jews of Color National Convening with conference organizer Leo Ferguson and Montreal activist Hirut Eyob. Finally, Aviva Stahl’s recent article for Alternet’s Grayzone Project is our recommendation for the week. Show Notes: https://www.treyfpodcast.com/2016/05/26/episode-18/ *EDIT: during this week's Shkoyach segment, David convinced Sam that COR stood for 'Council of Orthodox Rabbis.' This is incorrect. It appears that COR is not an acronym at all, instead a mysterious shorthand used by the Kashruth Council of Canada to label their certified products. Please direct all questions their way.
