The work of the foundation that studies Armenian architecture has
become active: this year the 15th volume of the book studying the
Armenian architecture was published. Monument expert Samvel Karapetyan
noted during his meeting with journalists on August 30 that the new
issue of Vardzk journal was also published. Vardzk means duty for
the memory of one's ancestors.
"By the assistance of the Ministries of Culture and Diaspora the
foundation has published a book devoted to Ani. The book includes
numerous photos, short stories about each monument. We have signed
agreements with the ministries, which refer to the documentation of
Armenian monuments located outside Armenia's borders," Armenpress
cites Karapetyan as saying.
Speaking about the importance of Vardzk journal, the monument expert
stated the information size was not enough for a book, therefore it
was decided to publish a journal.
"Each issue includes such a material that was never touched upon.
There are materials which are axial, for example, the photos taken
of Agulis from the space at the beginning of the year, which are
juxtaposed with the map made during the Soviet years," Karapetyan said.
Among the works carried out he also mentioned the map published on
the occasion of the 500th anniversary of the Armenian printing. The
map includes the names of all those printing houses which were formed
during the years of the formulation of printing.
"We will also publish a 37-volume book series, which will include
information on 70 provinces of Western Armenia. We will also have
a book series presenting Artsakh's historical and cultural values,
which will outline Artsakh's map," Karapetyan said.
