Abstract
Two original unpublished poems of Archbishop Apraham Kupelian-Yegenian (Kilis, 1876-Aleppo, 1832), which are dedicated to the 1813 popular uprising of Aleppo, are put into circulation for the first time. The poems describe the events and decry the huge losses and sufferings that the "mother city", Aleppo, underwent.
The first poem has 43 four-line verses. The second consists of I& verses, both written in complicated grabar.
Two handwritten copies of the first poem have survived (the second copy is incomplete and has the last 7 verses only). The second poem survives only as a handwritten draft copy of the author.
Based on historic events, these two poems are unique phenomena in Armenian medieval literature, as one rarely comes across cases where an Armenian poet writes a poem on events that took place in Aleppo.
In his introduction, Minassian provides certain details regarding the uprising and the author of the poems.
