    Extractions: Lider TV Armenia TV promised Pop Idol 2 years ago, it never happened because of contracting and rights laws. The Public Tv tried something, but as always , it failed miserably because they are too intellectual for their own good. Now to the music news: CS records , which is part of the CS media city complex, which owns Armenia Tv, Tv 5, and now Hayfilm. This record studio is brand new, and I think can only spell good things as its well equipped and has a pretty modern way of working. As I mentioned earlier, Hayfilm has been bought from the Government by Armenia TV owners B. Sargsyan and Gerard Cafesjian. In a somewhat controversial deal, CS Media Holding now occupies Armenia Tv, Tv5, A record studio, its own film studio, and Hayfilm. Positively this means: new films, new equipment and better salaries for staff. Negatively this means : A lack of artistic independence ( CS holding is closely connected with Kocharyan) , which could mean meaningless, commerical films being produced. Either way, time will tell. Next time I speak to you Armenia will be 14 years old! Happy Birthday

    Extractions: Tourism Armenia Geography Religion History ... Architecture Armenia's culture is unique in many ways. First, it is so much bigger than the nation itself that it overwhelms and dominates all other features of the Armenian ethnic identity. Second, it is very diversified. During its more than 2,000 year-old history, Armenia has gone through so many radical changes in its size and political status, that our culture has been influenced by and has influenced many other cultures. The many wars and other disasters in ancient and recent time tore the country apart and left a deep imprint in its culture. That tragic division had some positive consequences too, for instance, post-mediaeval Armenian literature has two different traditions, Western Armenian and Eastern Armenian, which being a part of a original literary heritage, have their own distinct linguistic and stylistic properties. Other important characteristics of Armenian culture are its permanence and longevity. Throughout its history, Armenia resisted invasion and absorption, relaying through its art one of the most beautiful manifestations of its identity. And, finally, when we say, for example, Armenian art, we don't usually mean art from Armenia, more often we refer to art of the Armenian people, who despite being scattered all over the world stubbornly stick to each other, to their traditions, their cultural heritage, their mother tongue.

At the special request of the Sheikh of Sharja, Dr. Sultan bin Mohammed Al Qasimi, only artists representing traditional art and music were invited to participate in the event. On opening day, Armenians, Arabs, and guests of the Sharja Culture Ministry gathered at the Sharja Expo Center for opening ceremonies. After welcoming remarks by Arshak Poladyan, Armenia’s ambassador in the UAE, Armenian Culture Minister Hovig Hoveyan summed up the importance of maintaining traditional culture. “To know a people,” he said, “you have to know their traditional culture, their music and art.” He then introduced Armenia’s most widely acclaimed group of folk musicians, Shoghaken Ensemble , saying, “By presenting Shoghaken, we are able to take the listener back to the depths of Armenian history, to the depths of the Armenian spirit.”

For this reason, much work is translated for Aghpyur . Times are difficult, but there are still many talented children who deserve to have their work presented to others, so they don’t lose hope. They need to know they are not alone, and that others are with them in these difficult times.”

    Extractions: History Architecture Manuscript Paintings ... Art of Book History (Art and Culture) rmenian art has been profoundly influenced by Armenian culture, Armenia's long history, ever-changing geography and unique mountainous landscape. One of the most important periods of Armenian art was that from the ninth to the sixth centuries BC. Armenia was, at this point in history, the Kingdom of Van or Urartu. Citadels, temples, irrigation canals, carved stone seals, glass, ceramics, jewelry and arms were characteristic of Urartu's artistic endeavors. The Urartians were major producers of bronze objects. Excavation at the Urartian site of Karmir-Blur, begun in 1939 and continuing even today has resulted in the discovery of many household utensils, furniture decorations and pieces of military equipment such as helmets, arrows and shields fashioned out of bronze. Urartian smiths were also very skilled in the use of silver and gold. Vases, medallions and amulets were fashioned from silver while gold was used to create articles of jewelry. The smiths of this time are best remembered for their skill in decorating metal with mythological and animal forms. The intrinsic value of these metals made them prime targets for invaders who periodically looted the country. For this reason, metalwork of other periods cannot be documented as well.

    http://groong.usc.edu/ADconf/199909/reports/culture.html
    
    Extractions: Yerevan, September 22-23, 1999 My report is necessarily brief and is intended to be an honest and open discussion of a number of issues, mainly cultural, and some hard and harsh realities, many of which may be painful and hurtful. I offer no apologies for my forthright approach as I know of no other way of tackling such vital issues as the ones covered by this report and of identifying problems in a dispassionately and lucidly defined context and perspective. For the purposes of this report, the word culture is used in its broader sense; and while emphasis is on culture, many other aspects intricately and inextricably interwoven with the concept of culture, and which for some may not fit the narrower definition of the term, have been incorporated into this report. There are three parts to this report. The first is a background to Armenian realities in the 19th and the 20th centuries and traces the evolution of the Eastern and Western Armenians into two distinct halves. The second is made up of conclusions derived from the first part and of the premise I suggest as the basis for relations between Armenia and the Dispersion. The third part enumerates a number of concrete plans and proposals for such relations. I. Background

    Extractions: ERMC/AUA. : State of the Environment Armenia Armenian Culture Armenian culture in beginning of development of Armenians as a folk had a strong influence of Shoumer and Accadian cultures. Probably this influenced on development of fine arts, cuneiform, even language of first Armenians. It had a great influence of Assyrian and Babylonian cultures. We know, that people that time could build beautiful towns, they mastered many crafts, including processing of metal (iron, bronze). Urartian people had a very large pantheon and myths, but none of them is known now. Armenian pantheon was alike Hellenistic. From material culture of that time are known a pagan church in Garni (1st century before our era), were found many golden coins, monuments, etc. During the epoch of Tigran II the Great Hellenistic culture spreads in Armenia. It influenced on architecture, literature, music, theater. Though theater was not a new thing for Armenians: they had a primitive folk theater, but Hellenistic culture brought tragedies and comedies of Greek authors, and Greek actors showed them to Armenian kings and noblemen. Armenians also began to write dramas to be shown in theater. Were created not only dramatic, but also historical and philosophical works. All the literature of that period was on Greek language. Many Armenian princes were educated in Greece. Was increasing the influence of Roman culture on the culture of Armenia. Armenian Christian culture brought with her new music, literature, architecture. Theater was forbidden. Literature began to develop Christian way: the main themes were the problems of God and a human being. Were built beautiful churches, and some of them are stood till our days. Appeared a need in a native alphabet, and it was created in 405 by Mesrop Mashtots. Began the development of historiography; were created such works as "History of Armenia till Our Days" (middle of 5th century). Generally it is possible to say that the 5th century became the "Golden century" for Armenian Christian culture. As an event of Armenian Christian culture we can consider khachkars- cross- stones (big stones with crosses on them, made very accurately). Khachkars are found only in Armenia and nowhere else.

Another story lies beneath the surface. MAP: Greater Armenia MAP: Cilicia Cilicia became part of the Ottoman Empire in the 15th century, with Armenians maintaining a presence in the trading cities. Along with the Syrian and Greek Christian communities of the empire, Cilician Armenians generally survived and prospered until the beginning of this century. During the Great War, as the Ottoman Empire collapsed, relocation marches drove much of the Armenian community out of the area. Survivors returned to Cilicia under the promise of British and French protection. In 1920, fierce fighting broke out. The Western allies abandoned the military struggle, and the Armenian communities of Cilicia were ultimately driven south to Syria and Lebanon in the winter of 1920. (Many members of the Armenian communities of southeastern Michigan who immigrated from Syria and Lebanon have roots in the region of Cilicia.) Gospels written in black ink on paper.
