"Ninety Years after 1915":
A Lecture by Professor Richard Hovannisian
At the Hovnanian School
On the 90th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide, we have much to
remember and much to reflect on. As we look to the past, we should learn
valuable lessons for today and tomorrow.
To this end, the Hovnanian School is organizing a lecture by
Professor Richard Hovannisian, the well-known scholar on modern Armenian
history, which will be held on Thursday, May 12, at 8:00 pm at the school.
Entitled "Looking Backward, Moving Forward: Ninety Years after 1915", this
lecture will afford a timely opportunity for us to review where we are and
to explore ways to see where we are going.
Richard Hovannisian is professor of History and associate director
of the Grunebaum Center for Near Eastern Studies at the University of
California, Los Angeles. A member of the UCLA faculty since 1962, he holds
the Armenian Educational Foundation Chair in Modern Armenian History. He is
the author of the seminal four-volume "The Republic of Armenia", which was
preceded by "Armenia on the Road to Independence," his Ph.D. thesis. He has
edited around twenty volumes of proceedings of conferences, including four
volumes about the Armenian Genocide and the first five volumes of the
ongoing series of UCLA conferences on Armenian Historical Cities and
Provinces, of which already fifteen conferences have been held. He has also
edited the two-volume "The Armenian People from Ancient to Modern Times",
recently released in paperback format. He is a member of many scholarly
institutions, and also a corresponding member of the National Academy of
Sciences of Armenia.
The Hovnanian School is located at 817 River Road, New Milford, NJ
07646. For further information, call the school office at 201-967-5940 or
