| dc.description.abstract | The Mehyan literary monthly was launched in Costantinople in January 1, 1914. With its last issue published in July 1914, only 7 issues have come out of this short-lived but influential monthly. In this article, Pepo Simonian debates and evaluates this literary monthly, through a deep analysis of the original works in prose and poetry published in it. Based on the opening articles, literary criticism and proclamatory articles published in the monthly, the author reconstructs the literary conviction of the five Armenian writers who initiated the monthly, namely Kostan Zarian as director and editor in chief, Hakop Oshakan and Gegham Barseghian as editors and Daniel Varoujan and Aharon as main contributors. The objective of the group was to shape and renew Armenian literature basing it on an esthetic form and an Armenian content, with great concern to enrich the language, as well. They tried to explore the spiritual and subconscious aspects of the Armenian nation, in an attempt to show its unique characteristics and humanitarian concerns. The author substantiates that the monthly reflected the tendency and evolution of Western Armenian literature from the village to the city to the western horizon. The Mehyan literary group, in their search for the realization of nation-wide literary objectives, believed in and campaigned for the full liberty of art, its independence from politics and journalism. Nevertheless, the author confirms that it was the literar prose, published in the monthly, rather than the poetry, which came closer to the group's literary standards. He concludes that "Mehyan really is a phenomenon in its literary and philosophical aspects, and epitomizes the tendencies of Western Armenian literature. With its content which opens new horizons to the Armenian literary and esthetic mind, it has been an important achievement". | |
