The Armenian Testament
The 20th century saw two great world wars. It was a century of crisis, as it was also of change and progress. However, he will be remembered for two huge human tragedies, in which groups of people tried to annihilate specific ethnic groups. This is the case of the Armenian Genocide and the Jewish Holocaust. The Armenian Testament is a historical novel in which the circumstances, characters and places are collected, as well as the political motivations that gave rise to the so-called "Armenian Genocide" between 1915 and 1916. The protagonist is a fictional character, like many those that appear throughout the book. However, the fundamental facts, the actors in the process that gave rise to ma...

Le testament arménien
Le XXe siècle a vu deux grandes guerres mondiales. Ce fut un siècle de crise, comme ce fut aussi un siècle de changement et de progrès. Cependant, on se souviendra de lui pour deux énormes tragédies humaines, au cours desquelles des groupes de personnes ont tenté d'anéantir des groupes ethniques spécifiques. C'est le cas du génocide arménien et de l'holocauste juif. Le Testament arménien est un récit historique fictif, dans lequel les circonstances, les personnages et les lieux sont rassemblés, ainsi que les motivations politiques qui ont donné lieu au soi-disant « génocide arménien » entre 1915 et 19...
The Politics of Naming the Armenian Genocide
This book explores the genealogy of the concept of 'Medz Yeghern' ('Great Crime'), the Armenian term for the mass murder and ethnic cleansing of the Armenian ethno-religious group in the Ottoman Empire between the years 1915-1923. Widely accepted by historians as one of the classical cases of genocide in the 20th century, ascribing the right definition to the crime has been a source of contention and controversy in international politics. Vartan Matiossian here draws upon extensive research based on Armenian sources, neglected in much of the current historiography, as well as other European languages in order to trace the development of the concepts pertaining to mass killing and genocide of Armenians from the ancient to the modern periods. Beginning with an analysis of the term itself, he shows how the politics of its use evolved as Armenians struggled for international recognition of the crime after 1945, in the face of Turkish protest. Taking a combined historical, philological, literary and political perspective, the book is an insightful exploration of the politics of naming a catastrophic historical event, and the competitive nature of national collective memories.
El beato Ignacio Maloyan, en el Gólgota de los armenios
El beato Ignacio Maloyan, arzobispo de Mardin (Turquía), martirizado en 1915, es uno de los seis obispos armenios católicos que fueron víctimas del genocidio armenio en las primeras décadas del siglo XX. Este libro descubre aquella hermosa y desconocida página de martirio y de entrega a Dios de centenares de miles de cristianos. Tras la pantalla de la Primera Guerra Mundial, el Imperio otomano se entregó a un nacionalismo radical intentando sobrevivir a su decadencia y procedió al exterminio de la comunidad armenia. Los católicos armenios, minoría dentro de la minoría armenia, fueron también asesinados de las formas más terribles, pero sin renunciar a la fe y acompañados en todo momento por sus pastores. Obispos y sacerdotes velaron por su salvación, hasta que ellos mismos fueron sacrificados en el horno del odio. El martirio del beato Ignacio Maloyan recuerda el testimonio de los apóstoles.
