Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique study bridges the history of the Crusades with the history of Armenian nationalism and Christianity. To the Crusaders, Armenian Christians presented the only reliable allies in Anatolia and Asia Minor, and were pivotal in the founding of the Crusader principalities of Edessa, Antioch, Jerusalem and Tripoli. The Anatolian kingdom of Cilicia was founded by the Roupenian dynasty (mid 10th to late 11th century), and grew under the collective rule of the Hetumian dynasty (late 12th to mid 14th century). After confrontations with Byzantium, the Seljuks and the Mongols, the Second Crusade led to the crowning of the first Cilician king despite opposition from Byzantium. Following the Third Crusade, power shifted in Cilicia to the Lusignans of Cyprus (mid to late 14th century), culminating in the final collapse of the kingdom at the hands of the Egyptian Mamluks.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The clash of cultures, peoples, and religions in the Near East is dramatically portrayed in this primary source of major importance. Matthew of Edessa, an Armenian monk, was eyewitness to the leading events of the period, such as the first appearance of the Turks in the Near East, the campaigns of the early Crusaders, and the massive struggle for domination that characterized relations between Byzantium, the Latin West, the Arabs, and the Turks. Matthew was also aware of the position of other nations, such as the Armenians, Georgians, and Syrians. Upon the death of Matthew the narration was continued by another Armenian monk, Gregory the Priest.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is a history of frequent conquest by rival empires and periods when the Armenians established independent kingdoms two centuries before Christ between Rome and Persia. The conversion of Armenia to Christianity in AD 314, the first among Christian nations, created a unique cultural heritage in its literature, architecture, and historical writing. While the book covers the span of three millennia, the main focus is on the relatively little known Kingdom of Armenian Cilicia and its close relations with the Crusader states in the Near East. The numerous ties of this kingdom with the West from the XI to the XIV century would also serve to emphasize its significance for a more complete history of Europe. Strongly attached to their brand of Christian spirituality and to their oral and written language, which helped them in their almost miraculous survival, the Armenian never lost their culture. Giving frequent proof of their adherence to ideals of a life they considered inalienable, at the turn of the 20th century they were almost annihilated by a genocidal catastrophe. But they survived by adapting to new forms of life in a small independent republic and in the lands of the diaspora. It is a story which might stir up a romantic passion in the kindly-disposed reader, but it may also offer reflection and meditation in others.

Book excerpt: There is a great deal of interest in the history of Armenia since its renewed independence in the 1990s and the ongoing debate about the genocide - an interest that informs the strong desire of a new generation of Armenian Americans to learn more about their heritage and has led to greater solidarity in the community. By integrating themes such as war, geopolitics, and great leaders, with the less familiar cultural themes and personal stories, this book will appeal to general readers and travellers interested in the region.

Book excerpt: Originally published in 1970, this book is the result of many years of study and research in the field. It begins with a geographic and ethnic survey of the land and Armenian people and traces the land’s prehistory back to the Old Stone Age. The origins of the wine-making and bronze-working industries are discussed, in which Armenia played a pioneering role. The outstanding Armenian contribution to Church art and architecture is also explored as is the contribution of Armenia to painting, philosophy, and science. The final section is devoted to an account of Soviet Armenia.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 2018 Dr Sona Aronian book prize for Excellence in Armenian Studies In Mattʿēos Uṙhayecʿi and His Chronicle Tara L. Andrews presents the first ever in-depth study of the history written by this Armenian priest, who lived in Edessa (modern-day Urfa in Turkey) around the turn of the twelfth century and was an eyewitness to the First Crusade and the establishment of the Latin East. Although the Chronicle is known as an extremely valuable source of information for the eleventh- and early twelfth-century Near East, neither its guiding structure nor Uṙhayecʿi's motivation in writing it have ever been clear to modern historians. This study elucidates the prophetic framework within which the text was written, and demonstrates how that framework has influenced Uṙhayecʿi's understanding of the time in which he lived.

Matthew was also aware of the position of other nations, such as the Armenians, Georgians, and Syrians. Upon the death of Matthew the narration was continued by another Armenian monk, Gregory the Priest. As an Armenian Christian, Matthew of Edessa welcomes the arrival of the Crusaders from the West, seeing in them the saviors of the local populations from the domination of imperial Constantinople on the one hand, and the death and destruction brought about by the Turkish invasions on the other. In the course of events, however, Matthew finds that all peoples encompass good and evil, arrogance and compassion, understanding and intolerance. The fall of the Armenian kingdoms of Ani and Vaspurakan, the capture of Jerusalem by the Crusaders, and the decisive battle between East and West at Mantskert (Manzikert) are some of the striking events vividly portrayed by this medieval chronicler, who makes every effort to provide an accurate and impartial account for the benefit of posterity.
