    age 16, two years before graduation, he ended his formal education
    and returned to Dsegh to care for his family. At age 19 Tumanyan
    married and eventually fathered ten children. He started to write in
    mid 1880s and cooperated to Armenian newspapers and magazines. But
    he became known as a poet in 1890, when his first poetry collection
    was published.

    by involving well-known Armenian writers. In 1912-1921 he was the
    chairman of the Armenian Writers' Caucasian Society as well as acted
