  • Karen KHURSHUDYAN - CONTEMPORARY ARMENIAN POETRY and FRENCH SURREALISTIC HERITAGE
    Language: Հայերեն

    This article explores the thematic and stylistic parallels between contemporary Armenian poetry-particularly the works of Hovhannes Grigoryan and Vardan Hakobyan-and the French surrealist tradition. Through a comparative analysis, it highlights shared motifs such as love, memory, dreams, and linguistic freedom. Grigoryan’s poetry is marked by emotional rawness and the expressive power of silence, while Hakobyan’s texts transform love into a symbolic, dreamlike vision that blends reality with the subconscious. French surrealists like Éluard, Aragon, and Apollinaire treat love as a symbolic and ideological space, often shaped by collective memory and poetic experimentation. Although influenced by surrealism, Armenian poets reinterpret its principles through their own cultural and historical lens. The article concludes that Armenian contemporary poetry represents a unique avant-garde voice-speaking a universal language with distinctly national inflections.

    Language: Հայերեն

    The article offers an analysis of Avetik Isahakyan’s narrative cycle, showing how the Armenian writer elevates historical and mythical figures into universal symbols of spiritual and existential quest.Through a comparative approach, it reveals the deep unity of the stories : Lilith, Saadi, Khayyam, Genghis Khan, and Li Taibai, each reflecting on beauty, faith, and human finitude.The study underlines Isahakyan’s endeavor to reconcile the human and the divine, matter and spirit, East and West, within a harmonious and universal vision.Thus, the article presents his work as a mystical and intercultural meditation, where narration becomes a space of dialogue between civilizations and the spiritual values of humanity.
