ՏԱՐՈՆ ԱՇԽԱՐՀԻ ՐՈՒՐԻՆԵՐ LULLABIES OF TARON REGION

Herald of Social Sciences, 2021

The article examines the lullabies of one ethnographic zone, the historical Taron. Many of the lullabies were recorded outside the historical homeland of songwriting, but clearly express the features of the region’s musical dialect. When we say “Taron”, we mean, first of all, the most musical areas of Mush-Sasun, from where there was a large migration into modern Aragatsotn and Shirak. As a result, we collected 10 samples from the mentioned regions, nine of which were published in different collections, and one sample, which was distributed orally, but in an unpublished state, was decoded by us. The studies of these samples confirmed the unique musical thinking of the ethnographic region, which is reflected in the modes, intonation, range, metrarythm, and the connection of the melody and the text in them. Thus, at the moment, having 10 samples of the zone of interest, which may be replenished in the future, we can draw some conclusions: • most of them are traditionally transmitted e...

Հայաստանի ժայռափորագիր նշանները և միջնադարյան գաղափարագրերը Rock-carved Signs of Armenia and the Medieval Ideograms

Հայոց պատմության հարցեր Hayots' patmut'yan harts'er, 2024

In Armenian rock art, four main areas are distinguished: nature, everyday life, results of human creation and the inner world. I’ve organized their rich diversity into 31 thematic groups: terrain elements, the Earth, heavenly luminaries, celestial, atmospheric and terrestrial phenomena, plants, animals, agriculture, hunting, animal fighting, battles, sports, competitions, dance, weapons, instruments, trans-portation means, constructions, applied images, learning tools, play aids, garment, cult, mythical creatures, anatomy of creatures, portrait, uncertain image, ornament, symbols, letter-like signs. Rock art in Armenia originated in the 7th - 5th millennia BCE and was gradually replaced by more developed writing systems. Certain ancient compositions and styles naturally continued in other areas of Armenian culture. The traditions of petroglyphs are observed in bas-reliefs and frescoes of the early Iron Age and Cuneiform periods, as well as in ancient and medieval structures and caves. The skills of carving have been preserved in constructions, sculpture, cuneiform and lapidary inscriptions. The obvious similarity with medieval pictograms may indicate that rock-carved signs served as ideograms since ancient times. Nearly one tenth of the 10 thousand known petroglyphs are separate, isolated symbols. Such a sign is often depicted in simple, ordinary scenes, and it should be perceived as an ideogram, determinative. Among the variety of petroglyphs, letter-like signs stand out, but they are not alphabetic letters. Similarities are observed with a number of writing systems, especially with Hittite-Luwian hieroglyphs. In the rock carvings of Armenia there are more than 100 types of signs similar to the letters of Mashtots and other alphabets. symbol in ancient times served as a means of interethnic communication due to its universal, supra-ethnic nature. As elsewhere, in the result of linearization it turned into a developed pictogram, and at later stages – into a letter. Therefore, the study of this substratum of petroglyphs can shed light on the problems of the origin of human thinking, speech and writing, of their sequence and synchronicity.

Herald of Social Sciences, 2021

Various initiatives dedicated to Artsakh and the displaced Artsakh Armenians were implemented in the Republic of Armenia during the war that began in Artsakh on September 27 of 2020 and in the following days. These events were dedicated to the support of Artsakh and the people of Artsakh, to raising, emphasizing, presenting and publicizing various issues of Artsakh culture, production, identity. These wartime period support initiatives were often carried out through the popularization and commercialization of Artsakh cuisine, particularly well known dishes (jengyalov hats, baklava, kurkut, honey, wine, wild flavorings and aromatic plants, etc.).

Աշխատություններ Հայաստանի պատմության թանգարանի / Transactions of the History Museum of Armenia

The principles of carpets' structural intervention are formulated by conservation institutes and advisory institutions as cultural heritage and museum objects. The article presents foreign experience of intervention on this issue. In this context, our task was to research the experience of the museums in Armenia. They have more than thirty years of experience in this field. Accurate and partial restoration were carried out in the Soviet and post-Soviet attempts. The experience of carpet restoration is based on knowledge developed in the private field. In general, the problems of the carpet intervention are mainly related to education, necessity of professional discussions and boundaries developing to propose appropriate solutions.

Չարենցի Հուշասրահը Չարենցավանում. Գաղափարախոսությունը Եվ Ուրբանիզմը Խորհրդային Քաղաքում / Charents Memorial Hall in Charentsavan: Ideology and Urbanism in a Soviet City

Աշխատություններ Հայաստանի պատմության թանգարանի / Transactions of the History Museum of Armenia, 2023

The cultural landscape is a metaphorical language through which power, hopes and expectations are expressed. Especially in ideological and non-democratic environments, these environments are associated with ideas of power and the visualization of messages in the language of power. The Charents Memorial Hall, opened in 1978 in Charentsavan, the industrial city of Soviet Armenia, reflected the close connection of the cultural landscape of the Soviet city with urbanism and ideology. This was expressed both in the choice of the place of the memorial hall, the external and internal design, and in the content. Today, the memorial hall functions as a medium for forgetting the "glory" of the past. When represented, these places have great potential to represent the narratives of the Soviet cultural landscape and politics.
