Commentaire :

In addition to providing a concise introduction to Armenian history and culture, this book shatters the simplistic notion that Armenians have achieved their principal distinction as victims of the Turkish massacres and deportations of 1915.
After a short outline of Armenian history from pre-historic times to our own days, the author devotes separate chapters to religion, language, literature, music, and the arts.
This is much more than a revised and updated edition of the original book that was published in 1975 and went out of print shortly thereafter It is a completely re-written and vastly expanded work with new sections devoted to the sciences, the cinema, cuisine, and contributions to the literatures of other countries, where the works of such renowned writers as Arthur Adamov, William Saroyan, Vahe Katcha, Nina Berberova, and Marietta Shaginian are discussed and analyzed. The chapter on Armenian literature moreover has been expanded from 30 pages to nearly a 100. Here for the first time 20th-century authors like Zabel Yessayan, Totovents. Charents, Bakounts, Gostan Zarian, Shahnour, Nartuni, Osha-gan. and Baruir Sevag are discussed side by side with such medieval classics as Khorenatsi and Narekatsi, and such 19th-century romantics as Khachatur Abovian and Bedros Tourian. Another valuable feature of The Armenians is the bibliographical guide at the end of each chapter where easily available works in the English language are listed for those who would like to explore the subject further.
This indispensable book on the Armenians may be the standard work on the subject for years to come. The beginner can have no more stimulating introduction and the scholar no surer guide through various aspects of Armenian history and culture.
