INTERNATIONAL SCIENTIFIC CONFERENCE TO TAKE PLACE IN THE NKR
STEPANAKERT, November 29 (Noyan Tapan). In 2005, an international
scientific conference dedicated to the 1600th anniversary of opening
the first school in Artsakh will take place in Nagorno Karabakh, the
Information and Analytical Department of the Ministry of Foreign
Affairs of the Republic of Nagorno Karabakh reported.
According to Head of the Artsakh State University Hamlet Grigorian,
the conference will be conducted in late May, and scientists from
various countries of the world expressed their wish to take part in
it.
"Today, we have already prepared a great material dedicated to the
history of formation of Artsakh's educational system from the ancient
times till nowadays. The conference will take place in Stepanakert,
Shoushi and, naturally, on the territory of the ancient cloister of
Amaras, where the first school was opened", Hamlet Grigorian noted.
The Amaras cloister occupies a special place among the monuments of
Artsakh-Karabakh, as the dissemination of Christianity in the region
and the neighboring Armenian provinces began just here. During the
following centuries, the cloister remained one of the famous centers
of the spiritual and cultural life of Artsakh. It's well known that
the creator of the Armenian alphabet, Mesrop Mashtots, began teaching
the Armenian written language in the East Armenia in Amaras, where the
first school was founded.
