Nané Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 The topic is created. Unfortunately I don't have any uplifting story to post at this time but I am sure there will be many in the future. For now, I leave you with this - If we assume that we really do find what we seek, why not seek beauty? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yervant1 Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 We do talk about our beautiful side, be it in Literature, Arts and Sciences or Sports forums. Usually the bad acts makes the news whereas so many good things go unnoticed, it's just a fact of life. Having said that we need to be vigilant in exposing the bad apples of our society be it in Homeland or abroad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, here we can post those stories that don't really fit under Literature, Arts and Sciences or Sports. Agreed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The house will be sold for USD 145000, Chairman of the Writers’ Union of Armenia Levon Ananyan told a Panorama.am reporter from Tbilisi. We will remind that Mayor of Gyumri Vardan Ghukasyan said Ghukasyan brothers are ready to buy with their own financial means the part of the house which belongs to A. Lezhava (120 sq.m.) to donate it to the Armenian community of Tbilisi. He wrote a letter of obligation. A delegation left for Tbilisi on Tuesday which included Chairman of the Writers’ Union of Armenia Levon Ananyan, the cousin of Gyumri Mayor, MP Artyom Ghukasyan, and two representatives of Gyumri Mayor’s Office. Levon Ananyan said that they and Armenian Ambassador to Georgia Hovhannes Manukyan met with A.

Yervant1 Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 EXHIBITION REMOVES VEIL OF HISTORY OBSCURING ANATOLIAN MINORITIES yerkir.am18:55 - 15.02.2012 Some 200 photographs are on display at an exhibit 'CulturalDiversity in Old Diyarbakır,' which relates the lives and commercialcontributions of Diyarbakır's long-forgotten peoples. The Birzamanlar (Once Upon a Time) Publishing House has launched aphotography exhibition in Istanbul's Tophane neighborhood, providinga rare glimpse into the history of non-Muslim minorities living inthe southeastern province of Diyarbakır. "Official history teaches us that all these cities were created bythe Turks, and that all the fair deeds of the past were done by them. Those who are not Turks or Muslims are depicted as unfavorablefigures," Osman Köker, the owner of the Birzamanlar PublishingHouse, recently told the Hurriyet Daily News. "The cultures, faiths,traditions and genetics of the peoples of old are also part of thereality we call the Turkish nation." Around 200 photographs compiled from 40 different sources are ondisplay at the "Cultural Diversity in Old Diyarbakır" exhibition,which is being jointly organized by the Birzamanlar Publishing Houseand the Anatolian Culture and Global Dialogue, an Istanbul basednongovernmental organization. The exhibition at Tophane's Tutun Deposubegan Feb. 10 and will continue until March 10. "Eastern Anatolia was much richer at the turn of the 20th century thanit has been in the Republican period, both culturally and materially,"Köker said, adding that the memories of old were still very muchalive in Anatolia. The exhibition, which relates the lives and commercial contributions ofDiyarbakır's long forgotten peoples, such as the Armenians, Syriacs,Chaldeans, Anatolian Greeks and the Yezidis, also features explanatorynotes in Turkish, English and Kurdish. "Armenian newspapers were published and theaters [staged plays]not merely in Diyarbakır, but also in many other [nearby] placeslike Elazıg, Erzurum, Van and Erzincan. There were many factories[making various kinds of produce] ranging from the silk industryto metal wares. These [factories] did not [produce] solely for thedomestic market but also for exports," Köker said. Turkish people are now striving to learn about the truth insteadof the bragging of official history, he said. "All of us have grownweary of such vein boasting."Old shopkeepers and artisans in the region readily confide they hadlearned their skills from Armenians and Syriacs, he said. Köker said they had already taken the exhibition to many differentcorners of the world, including Armenia and that Anatolian peopleshad always shown great interest in the exhibition at every stop. "Diaspora Armenians know precious little of the things they see inthe exhibitions. They see the concrete [images] of things that seemto them like the stuff of legends. Moreover, they are nonplussedthat this project has been undertaken by a person of Turkish-Muslimidentity from Turkey," he said. Köker also said they had conducted research in the Orlando CarloCalumeo Collection, the Boston-based Project SAVE Armenian Photograph Archive, as well asthe Annuaire Oriental, an annual commercial almanac that has beenpublished since the mid-19th century, while they were preparing forthe exhibition.

MosJan Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 Ani, book-album on ancient Armenian capital, published13:20 • 15.02.12 A book-album depicting the history and cultural heritage of Ani, the medieval Armenian capital, has been published in Yerevan upon the initiative of the Ministry of Culture. The edition, dedicated to the 1,050th anniversary of declaring Ani a capital, is unique as it provides detailed information on constructions never measured in the past. Speaking at the presentation of the book, Samvel Karapetyan, the head of the foundation Studying Cultural Monuments, thoroughly explained the initiative. He said that the most elaborate studies were conducted by Toros Torosyan, who had introduced three constructions that had never been measured before. "We have also portrayed all the semi-ruined churches, explaining how they might look now if they had been renovated. The book also has a supplementary sheet, which features the city's map," he said. The book-album comprises several sections, each featuring different architectural monuments (churches, cross-stones etc.). Several experts had joined Karapetyan to explore the sites of the historical Armenian capital. Their studies lasted only a week.The book contains 600 photographs and is designed for both professionals and ordinary readers.
