(tert.am<\/a>) The Armenian Genocide Museum-Institute has published the new monograph of Armen Kirakossian \u201cThe Armenian Genocide in Contemporary American Encyclopedias\u201d. The edition was presented in English.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>In this publication Dr. Arman Kirakossian studied and analyzed nearly forty specialized and thematic encyclopedias (Encyclopedia of War Crimes and Genocide, Encyclopedia of Genocide, etc.), dictionaries (Dictionary of Genocide, etc.), handbooks (The Oxford Handbook of Genocide Studies, etc.) and other directories published in the USA during the last fifteen years.<\/p>\n

Based on the material gathered the author divided the book into chapters which are representing conceptual and factual aspects of the Armenian Genocide beginning from the origins of the Armenian Question.<\/p>\n

The book consists of 16 chapters, list of encyclopedias, a bibliography of a literature related to the Armenian Genocide from different encyclopedias.<\/p>\n

Director of the Armenian Genocide Museum-Institute Hayk Demoyan said that the institute plans a release of two important volumes for the end of this year \u2013 Encyclopedia of the Armenian Genocide in Armenian and English.<\/p>\n

Robert Tatoyan presented the monograph entitled \u201cThe question of Western Armenian population in 1878-1914.\u201d According to him, this is one of the most controversial issues because Turkey\u2019s modern historiography and authorities are denying the Armenian Genocide on the basis of the Ottoman Empire statistics, which claims 1,300,000 Armenians there.<\/p>\n

\u201cI tried to analyze the data by the two major bodies available \u2013 the Ottoman Empire and the Constantinople-based Armenian Patriarchate, which has a right to registration,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Before the Armenian Question was raised, the Armenian population of the Ottoman Empire totaled 2.4m.<\/p>\n

Mr Demoyan presented an English-language book entitled \u201cThe Armenian Genocide in Literature. Perceptions of Those Who Lived Through the Years of Calamity\u201d by Rubina Peroomian, a research fellow at the University of California.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe author addresses the second generation\u2019s response to the Armenian Genocide in literature, which reflects people\u2019s psychological approaches.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
