`The Azerbaijani Textbook' has been issued by the Turkology chair of
the Oriental Studies Faculty at the Yerevan State University authored
by the professor of the same chair Lilit Movsisian. It is the first
Azerbaijani textbook in Armenia.
Ruben Melkonyan, the editor of the book, said the studies of
Azerbaijani language, literature, history is considered one of the
components of Turkic studies, and the Turkology chair of the YSU is
undertaking serious steps for scientific examination of these issues
in Armenia.
'This textbook is the first result of our work. We are consistent in
our activity and soon other results will be ready,' Melkonyan said.
Lilit Movisisyan, the author of the textbook, said she worked as
translator-editor of Azerbaijani programs at the Public radio of
Armenia. Speaking to Tert,am, she said she has been teaching
Azerbaijani in the Faculty since February 2008. Before the
publication, the textbook has undergone a serious trial and only after
the approval by the scientific council of Oriental Studies Faculty and
the editor it was published.
Speaking about the necessity of studying Azerbaijani, Lilit Movsisyan
said she felt the necessity of specialists after not finding a tutor
to study the language herself. `We have refugees who know the old
language, not the contemporary one,' she said, adding that knowing
Turkish helped her to study the Azerbaijani on her own. `I was greatly
encouraged by head of the Turkology chair Alexander Safaryan and the
YSU leadership. Azerbaijani studies is a new and perspective sphere
having a strategic significance for Armenia,' Movsisyan said.
