Translating faith : Ethiopian pilgrims in Renaissance Rome / Samantha Kelly.

• Origins of Santo Stefano -- Organization of the hostel-monastery -- Santo Stefano's pilgrims -- Negotiating European prior knowledge (1511-1513) -- Translating Ethiopian sanctity (1516) -- Correcting European expertise (1540-1542) -- Diplomatic intermediaries (1536/1544-1545) -- Translating ritual (1546-1549) -- Santo Stefano between Orthodox and Catholic (c.1552-1599) -- Conclusion: Santo Stefano in perspective -- Appendix A: Ethiopic syllabary and transliteration chart -- Appendix B: Prosopography of Ethiopian pilgrims in sixteenth-century Rome.

• "Tucked behind the apse of St Peter's Basilica in Rome, the ancient church of Santo Stefano hosted an unusual community during the sixteenth century: a group of Orthodox pilgrims from the Christian-ruled realm of Ethiopia. Translating Faith is the first book-length study of this community in nearly a century. Drawing on both Ethiopic and European-language sources, Kelly documents how pilgrims maintained Ethiopian Orthodox practices while adapting to a society increasingly committed to Catholic conformity. Kelly's account of the Santo Stefano pilgrim community is a timely story about the possibilities and pitfalls of ecumenical dialogue, in an age marked by intensive, often violent, negotiations of religious and racial difference"--
