ԺԹ. դարու կէսի Հայաստանի, Քիւրտիստանի եւ Պարսկաստանի քրիստոնեայ ժողովուրդներուն մասին անտիպ տեղեկութիւններ
(1998) Արթիւր Պէյլերեան
Asia Minor has been of strategic importance for East-West trade relations, for many centuries. As of the early-sixteenth century, Britain, France and Holland established consulates in some of the major cities of Asia Minor, including Smymna, Aleppo and Alexandretta. Due to the rivalries between Russia and the European colonizing states, there was a serious attempt to make use of the strategic location of Western Armenian districts. Thus were the established the first consulates in the Anatolian hinterland. This material is a preliminary report of the French consul of Erzeroum, Henri Soulange-Bodin, to the French foreign ministry. The French consulate in Erzeroum was inaugurated in 1843. Soulange Bodin had replaced the first French consul there in 1844. In his descriptive report, Soulange-Bodin gives numerical details regarding the Christian nations of the region enclosed between Kurdistan, Armenia and Iran. He paints a thorough picture of the number of the different Armenian sects, --the catholics, the protestant and the Orthodox Armenians-- through his survey of past history as well as through numerical data about the other Christian nations. He highlights their hardships and their way of life under Ottoman rule.

It is a well established historic fact that the Armenian Evangelical church originated in the bosom of the Armenian Apostolic church and was officially established on July 1, 1846. Nevertheless the full list of the founding members and the circumstances which led to its establishment were not detailed, due to unavailable information. Recently Rev. Movses Janbazian, the Executive Secretary of the Armenian Missionary Association of America, during his visit to Istanbul's Armenian Evangelical Churches, uncovered a memoir that lists the names of the founding members and details the events that preceded the official establishment and the handing of the iradé to the representatives of the group by Sultan Abdul Mejid II during a reception hosted by the Sir Stratford Canning, the British Ambassador at the Ottoman Empire.

Գրիգոր Անաւարզեցի կաթողիկոսի «Ճրագալուցին մկրտութեան» կանոնը
(1998) Գէորգ Մադոյեան
Catholicos Grigor Anavarzetsi, who lead the Armenian church berween 1293 and 1307, was not only a circumspect political actor but a talented author as well. Though he had authored over 33 cannonized Sharkans, only five of them are known to scholars. The author has uncovered 8 heretofore unknown cannons of catholicos Anavarzetsi one of which is the candie-light baptism cannon; this he has copied from a manuscript stored in the Mashtots Matenadaran of Erevan. The cannon consists of 31 verses which constitute 7 sharakans. According to the author, these Sharakans can not be considered poetry in the full sense of the word, because most of the best Armenian Sharakans are those which have little to do with biblical events and ceremonies, since the authors do not find themselves restrained with a set of fixed terminology and scenery.

Ազգային պատմութեան ըմբռնումը Հրանտ Մաթեւոսեանի երկերում
(1998) Սարգիս Փանոսեան
In one of his interviews, the contemporary Armenian author, Hrant Matevossian, acknowledges that "... there are periods and facts in the history of human kind, that literature should not address, like the bloody genocide of 1915... It seems that the agony [of the genocide] fades out, disappears when addressed in literature." However, even after expressing his reservation in addressing issues of "huge, remote history" which are beyond his memory and personal experience, Matevossian has attempted to interpret national history. Particularly, Matevossian tries to tackle the issue of the Armenian Genocide using an intellectual-philosophical approach. He analyses the tragedy through a paradigm which is composed of reasoning and cause and effect, and also through uncovering of the historical rhythm. "What was necessary to do in order to avoid the Genocide" is the axis around which Matevossian weaves his network of questions and concerns. Why would the genocide take place in 1915, and not, for example, at another point in time? Why is it that even our victories have served the enemy. Matevossian does not seem to have a decisive answer for these questions. Nevertheless he hints that national statehood is what he sees as the guarantor of the nation's harmonious existence.
