Abstract English
The purpose of this paper is to explore the effect that Geez literature had on the emergence and flourish of Amharic literature. The Amharic language emerged as the principal successor and the daughter language of Classical Ethiopic. The impact of Geez literature is evident in a lot of Amharic literary works. The bases of Amharic literature are mainly derived from the moral, religious, philosophical traditions that are already well-established in Ge’ez literature. This can be proved through scrutinizing the content and form of these texts. This research has various aspects as it deals with various Amharic literary works. The research divides these works into: religion, history, romance, philosophy, astronomy, drama, and, finally, poetry. It is clear that these works are diverse and reflect valuable information as they shed light on the important effects of Geez literature in establishing Amharic Literature and its multiple forms.
