HOVANNISIAN, GULLUDJIAN TO SPEAK AT GLENDALE LIBRARY NOV. 4
Armenian Weekly
Tue, Nov 1 2011
GLENDALE, Calif.-On Fri., Nov. 4, the Armenian Educational Foundation,
the Ararat-Eskijian Museum, and the National Association for Armenian
Studies and Research (NAASR) will sponsor a book presentation and
illustrated talk on "Armenian Kars and Ani" at the Glendale Central
Library.
In the first part of the evening, Hagop Gulludjian, lecturer in
Armenian language and literature at the University of California, Los
Angeles (UCLA), will provide an introduction to the recently published
Armenian Kars and Ani, edited by Richard G. Hovannisian, professor
of Armenian and Near Eastern history at UCLA. Armenian Kars and Ani
is the 10th volume of proceedings from the UCLA conference series
"Historic Armenian Cities and Provinces." This volume represents
a departure from its predecessors that focused on historic Western
Armenian areas, whereas Kars and Ani were very much a part of eastern
or Russian Armenia. Armenian Kars and Ani will be available for
purchase and signing the night of the event.
Hovannisian will conduct a photo presentation of his travels through
Historic Armenia in spring 2011 as the historian-guide for a NAASR
Armenian Heritage Tour led by Armen Aroyan, which provided him with
the opportunity to visit and reflect on the cities and regions he
has so often written about as a scholar.
Hovannisian is the author of Armenia on the Road to Independence,
the 4-volume history The Republic of Armenia, and has edited and
contributed to more than 20 books including The Armenian Genocide
in Perspective, The Armenian People from Ancient to Modern Times,
Remembrance and Denial, Looking Backward, Moving Forward, and The
Armenian Genocide: Cultural and Ethical Legacies.
The event begins at 7 p.m. at the Glendale Central Library, 222
East Harvard St., 2nd floor, in Glendale. It is free and open to
the public. For more information, contact NAASR (617-489-1610
or [email protected]), the Ararat-Eskijian Museum (818-838-4862 or
[email protected]), or the Armenian Educational Foundation
(818- 242-4154).
