THE MELANCHOLY TRANSLATOR: BELATA SIRAK WÄLDÄ SELLASSE HIRUYS AMHARIC TRANSLATION OF SAMUEL JOHNSON’S RASSELAS:Every man is placed in his present condition by causes which acted without his foresight, and with which he did not always willingly cooperate.—Rasselas n 1733, a young Englishman with uncertain prospects translated a long book that discussed the tribulations of the seventeenth-century emperor of Abyssinia. This book took peculiar hold of his imagination and, twenty five years later, Samuel Johnson wrote a fiction titled The History of Rasselas, Prince of Abissinia. His tale describes the quest of a melancholy Amhara prince who travels from an idyllic mountain valley in Abyssinia into the bustle of the outside world only to conclude that the determined search for happiness is futile. The book was almost instantaneously a success, with dozens of editions and translations into more than twenty-five languages. It was not until two hundred years later, however, that the book was translated into the prince’s own language.. September 30, 2017
