    Author to speak at Fresno State on early 1900s Armenian life

    By Rory Appleton



    Vahé Tachjian will deliver a talk on Armenian daily life from 1908 to
    1915 at 7:30 p.m. Jan. 29 in Room 191 of Fresno State's University
    Business Center.

    The lecture will open the Armenian Studies Program's Spring Lecture
    Series and will focus on Armenians in the Kharpert/Harput region of
    the Ottoman Empire. It looks at first-hand accounts from the region
    during the years leading up to the Armenian Genocide.

    Tachjian is the director of the Houshamadyan Project, which looks at
    the French occupation of Cilicia, Syria and Lebanon between the world
    wars, Armenians in the Ottoman Empire and refugee problems in the
    Middle East.
