Download or read book A Lifetime Ago in Baghdad written by Zagheek Markarian and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2024-06-06 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Armenians can make anywhere home. They have faced different occupiers in their home country throughout generations while still maintaining their uniqueness. They have also flourished culturally in several different countries. Chameleon-like yet distinct, Armenians often incorporate the languages and cultures of those around them into their lives while honoring their unique heritage. This includes those in Iraq, where Armenians have a rich history spanning generations. But histories can sometimes become diluted, lost, or purposefully skewed. A Lifetime Ago in Baghdad: An Armenian Family History is Zagheek Markarian’s attempt to clear the air on the history of Armenian Iraqis and her own family history, to celebrate the life of Armenians in Baghdad, and offer those that come after her an account of this. The book provides an encyclopedic look at this oft-overlooked but essential history and personal insights into it, both tragic and tender, and sometimes dramatic as though they were ripped from the pages of a novel. This collection of stories is an essential document as more Armenians are forced to leave Iraq and a demonstration of the values we should all strive to carry into the future.
Download or read book Where to Find Your Arab American Or Jewish Genealogy Records written by Anne Hart and published by ASJA Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Find out how and where to find your Arab-American or Jewish genealogy records. Also Mediterranean, Assyrian, Iranian, Greek & Armenian for all faiths. Are you a Christian or Moslem person from the Eastern Mediterranean, Iran, Armenia, Turkey, Greece, Iraq, or Central Asia? Or are your ancestors or clients Jewish from Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Russia, Belarus the Balkans, and/or North Africa-Ashkenazim, Sephardim, or Mizrahi? Genealogy-family history research-opens portals to the artistic, cultural, religious, social, historical, and economic environment in which a particular item was designed and brought forth, from people to their icons. Genealogy is cultural geography as well as a history and ethnography of human genes. Finding Arab-American, Iranian, Jewish, Greek, Mediterranean, or various Middle Eastern and West Asian family history records usually require navigating through hidden archives. Here's how to begin your search. When you can't find a surname, or there are no records, or you don't know whether the birth, marriage, tax, property, immigration, or other records were in Russian, Polish, Arabic, Farsi, Greek, Turkish, Judeo-Spanish, German, Czech, Lithuanian, or Yiddish, where and how do you begin your search? If no one recorded a woman's maiden name, how do you find her on a marriage certificate, school record, or other document in archives in a country you never expected in a language you never knew she was recorded? Do you begin with military records of conscripted males or religious school documents in any of the religions of your ancestors or family history research clients? To start your search, begin with memorabilia and photos or keepsakes and keepsake albums. Look at ethnic objects, books, letters, postcards, and diaries, along with the census or other genealogy records.

Download or read book Genealogy of the Family of St Gregory written by St. Mesrop Mashtots and published by Dalcassian Press. This book was released on 2023-10-01 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 5th century work, likely composed by the Armenian saint, Mesrop Mashtots, illustrates the family dynamic and political conflict that surrounds both St. Gregory the Illuminator, and Nerses I the Great, both Catholicos of Armenia. The historicity of this text is obscured, as it appears to be a function of the 5th century, with larger later additions coming from the medieval period. It does offer some insight into the early Armenian church and the weave of familial ties that supported it in its earliest centuries.

Download or read book Memoirs of a Soldier about the Days of Tragedy written by Bedros Haroian and published by Bookbaby. This book was released on 2022-03-11 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The youth of Bedros Haroian prepared him for the life of a soldier. He grew up an orphan in a cold and half-destroyed house in a village of the Ottoman Empire at the dawn of the 20th century. He grew up in a despised and impoverished Christian community in the Ottoman Empire, which was the Caliphate and operating under Shari'a law. Those beginnings made Haroian a revolutionary. When W.W. I breaks out, Haroian will find himself serving in four armies. The Ottoman Army conscripts him, and he joins with zeal to gain martial skills, and he provides one of the only descriptions of a survivor of the defeat at the Battle of Sarikamish. He later escapes to join the Imperial Russian Army to help fight for the Armenians surviving the Genocide. He ends up serving in the British Army in Batum (a Black Sea port), At the end, Bedros Haroian joins the French Foreign Legion's auxiliary unit of Armenian Legionnaires to defend the Armenian survivors in Cilicia (bordering the Mediterranean Sea). History and horror--those two words describe Haroian's experience as a soldier. His memoirs provide on-the-ground details and insights into historical battles, ones that increase our understanding beyond the limits of official reports on these battles.--Publisher.
Download or read book The History of Armenia written by Movses Khorenatsi and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2020-11-10 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The medieval historian of the Armenian people Movses Khorenatsi was the first Armenian to give a wonderful account of the inception of his nation in Babylon, the power struggles of the Armenian aristocracy, and the final dissolution of the Armenian kingdom. As the author said about his compatriots: "For although we are a small garden, and are very limited in number, and deprived of power, and have been conquered by other nations many times, still in our country there have been many feats of courage worthy of being immortalized in writing, which, however, none of them cared to record in books." The Armenian historian provided a very honest description of the Armenian society not being shy to praise the heroic exploits of some Armenians, such as the courageous founders of the Armenian people - Hayk and Aram, the brave king Tigran, the wise inventor of the Armenian script Mesrop Mashtots, and concurrently being brutal in his criticism of others: "Therefore, while mourning my people, I will say as Paul said about his enemies and the foes of the cross of Christ, using not my own, but the Holy Spirit's words. A flawed and disappointing clan, the clan unsettled in heart and unfaithful to God in its spirit! People of Aram! How long will you be hard-hearted, why do you love vanity and godlessness? Do you not realize that the Lord has magnified his saint and that the Lord will not hear when you call to him? For you have become hardened in the Fall and do not repent on your lounges, for you make unlawful sacrifices, and despise those who trust in God." The book consists of 3 parts - the genealogy of Great Armenia, the Middle history, and the completion of the history. The final chapter of the book ends in the lament over the loss of the Armenian kingdom: "I mourn you, the Armenian country, mourn you, the noblest of all the northern (countries), for the king and the priest, the mentor and the teacher were taken away from you; the world got disturbed, the disorder took root, the orthodoxy got shaken, the ignorance affirmed other faith.I am sorry for you, the Armenian church, which has lost the beauty of the altar, deprived of a brave pastor and his companion. I no longer see your intelligent herd grazing on a green meadow and near the waters of rest, or gathered in a sheepfold and protected from the wolves, but (I see) it scattered across the wastelands and the steep mountains."
Download or read book Tracing Your Baltic Scandinavian Eastern European Middle Eastern Ancestry Online written by Anne Hart and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2005-06-06 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you online and ready for global smart card and database genealogy for virtual travelers? Here's how to search family history for nations bordering the Baltic Sea, the Balkans countries, Scandinavia, Eastern Europe, and the Middle East. The nations listed in this guide (all faiths) include Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Iceland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Armenia, Assyria, Greece, Lebanon, Syria, and many other lands in the Middle East, the Balkans-Croatia, Macedonia, Bulgaria, Eastern Europe-Hungary, and more. Collecting details about people is moving toward smart card technology and its offspring. The new wave in genealogy is authentication technology. Authentication begins with new-wave technology used to gather population registers. Compare the new technology to the old method of door-to-door census taking, tombstone tracings, and city directory publishing. No, genealogists are not using smart cards this year, but smart card technology is being used to compile population registers in Europe. The future holds a new wave of technology used for authentication for banking transactions being applied to other areas. Currently this technology is used for collecting details for population registrars such as census taking. The application for research is of interest to family historians, librarians, and governments. It's already in use by private industry for electronic authentication. Family history is now about intelligent connections, whether it's a population registrar, census detail, or electronic identity for banking. Smart card genealogy began in 1998 in Finland with governments seeking to put census and population registers in an electronic form that would be available to researchers, and these applications are going global.
Download or read book Family of Shadows written by Garin K. Hovannisian and published by Harper. This book was released on 2010-09-21 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a world war rages through Europe in 1915, Ottoman authorities commence the systematic slaughter of 1.5 million Armenians—the first genocide of modern history. A teenage boy named Kaspar Hovannisian is among the surviving generation of Armenians who escape the ruins of their ancestral homeland and build communities around the world. Kaspar follows the American dream to the San Joaquin Valley of California, where he cultivates a small farm and begins investing in real estate. But memories of Armenia burn strong—a legacy of love, anguish, and faith in a national rebirth. Kaspar's son Richard leaves the family farm, ready to defend the history of a lost nation against the forces of time and denial. He helps pioneer the field of Armenian studies in the United States and becomes a worldwide authority on genocide. Richard's son Raffi is also haunted—and inspired—by the past. In 1989 he leaves his law firm in Los Angeles to stage the original act of repatriation to Soviet Armenia, where he goes on to play a historic role in the creation of a new and independent republic. Now, in a moving book that is part investigative memoir and part history of the Armenian people, Raffi's son, Garin Hovannisian, tells his family's story—a tale of tragedy, memory, and redemption that illuminates the long shadows that history casts on the lives of men.
