Pleased to come across the poem 'Et Indlæg til Fornuftens Ret fra Qvindekjønnet' (A Contribution to the Cause of Reason from the Female Gender) by Norwegian writer Christian Braunmann Tullin (1728–1765), regarded as one of his finest works and an early example of feminist satire.

The book belonged to the library of Götiska förbundet (Geatish Society) before it was acquired by the Library of the Royal Swedish Academy of Letters, History and Antiquities in 1844. @raa_se

According to @DerilloEyob it's an early 20C Gospel of John from Ethiopia. It really is a beautiful book, displaying so much craftsmanship and care.
How old do you think this Ethiopian/coptic book is? Any help is appreciated.

@tsion_axum It belongs to a Swedish book binder, but I'm not sure how and when they got hold of it. It must have made quite the journey at some point!
