dc.description.abstractIn an optimistic leading article entitled "The Song of Hope," published during World War I on February 21, 1916 in "Arev" newspaper of Cairo, Vahan Tekeyan expressed hope that the time had come for the Armenian population of the historic Armenian provinces to free themselves from the Ottoman yoke and accept the collective protection of the Russian, British, and French allies. This hope stemmed primarily from the fresh retreat of the Turkish army before advancing Russian troops in Erzurum, the victorious participation of Armenian volunteer fighters in the war, and the heroic battles of self-defense put up by local Armenian communities against the genocidal attempts of Turkish armed forces and mobs. Tekeyan’s hope was also fueled by a letter he had received from a certain unnamed "young physician" living in Europe and cited in his article. The original letter, dated January 26, 1916, was found in the Archives of the Armenian Patriarchate of Turkey, which are currently housed at the Armenian Patriarchate of Jerusalem. This discovery helped us identify the mysterious young physician as Nshan Der Sdepanian. Der Sdepanian was born in Erzincan in 1889. Upon completion of his higher education as a physician, he settled in Turin or Torino, Italy where he engaged in the study of the therapeutic merits of yogurt and became, possibly, the first manufacturer of yogurt in Torino. In October 1915, Der Sdepanian published the first issue of a periodical, "Armenia," in Italian, to advocate for Armenian interests in Italy during World War I. The periodical published until October 1918. Little did Tekeyan know at the time that he and Der Sdepanian would collaborate within the sphere of the Armenian National Delegation later and even travel together to Armenia to negotiate on behalf of the Armenian National Delegation with the Armenian government.
