Abstract
Derenik Demirchyan has always been solicitous of the Armenian people's fate and has written about it. WWI and the Armenian Genocide have not been an exception. Indeed, these have been reflected in Demirchyan's literary works, though the geography and chronology of the said catastrophes are not often clearly defined.
The study highlights Demirchyan's works which speak about the tragedy and its consequences. The author names the specific stories where Demirchyan emphasized these tragedies: "Avelorte" (The Redundant), "Jepite" (The Smile), "Asttso Tane" (In the House of God), and "Girk Tzaghkants" (the Book of Flowers).
The author notes that Demirchyan touched upon the subject prior to the Sovietization of Armenia and after the 1950s, as in the essay "The Armenian" (written in the 1920s) and the unfinished note called "Reflections on the Nagorno Karabakh and Nakhichevan issues" (written in the 1950s). In these two essays, Demirchyan more or less overtly speaks about the Armenian Genocide, without using the G word. He describes the catastrophe as a bloody conflict, massacre and depopulation.
In this publication we have made an attempt to reveal a few manifestations reflected in his works.
