    ARMENIAN KARS & ANI & PHOTO PRESENTATION OF THE JOURNEY

    AZG DAILY
    20-10-2011

    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 on Friday, November 4, at 7:00 p.m. at the Glendale Central
    Library, 222 East Harvard Street (2nd floor), Glendale, CA 91205.

    In the first part of the evening, Hagop Gulludjian, Lecturer in
    Armenian Language and Literature at the University of California,
    Los Angeles, will provide an introduction to the recently-published
    Armenian Kars and Ani, edited by Richard G. Hovannisian, Professor
    of Armenian and Near Eastern History, University of California, Los
    Angeles. Armenian Kars and Ani is the tenth volume of proceedings from
    the UCLA conference series "Historic Armenian Cities and Provinces."

    This volume represents a departure from its predecessors that have
    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.

    Richard Hovannisian will conduct a photo presentation of his travel
    through Historic Armenia in spring 2011 as the historian-guide for a
    NAASR Armenian Heritage Tour led by Armen Aroyan, providing him with
    the opportunity to visit and reflect on these cities and regions that
    he has so often written about as a scholar.

    Hovannisian is the author of Armenia on the Road to Independence,
    the four-volume history The Republic of Armenia, and has edited and
    contributed to more than twenty 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.
