Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Memories of Yerevan is a richly illustrated exploration of one of the world's oldest continually inhabited cities. Yerevan dates back to 782 BCE. This book brings together the work of twenty authors, each of whom is an expert in their field. It is an accessible look at the history and culture of Armenia through the story of its capital. In 301 CE, Armenia was the first country to adopt Christianity as an official religion. Memories of Yerevan provides a detailed description of the religious life of the country as seen through its unique churches and its written heritage, including the precious documents kept in the Matenadaran in Yerevan, the world's largest repository of Armenian manuscripts. As well as ancient history, the book explores the key period of the early 20th century, when Yerevan became the capital of Armenia and the country had a brief period of independence from colonial rule. In 1920, the Armenian Soviet Socialist Republic was formed. Memories of Yerevan records the changes that then took place in the city, including the creation of its unique early Soviet buildings and the stories of the Yerevan-based architects who designed them. Memories of Yerevan will appeal to a wide range of readers, from those already familiar with Armenia, its capital, and its people to those who are reading about the beautiful city of Yerevan for the first time.…
