About
Ars Poetica (1996-2000) is a tribute to the beauty of the Armenian language and a writer whose symbolic importance for the country’s cultural history transforms his lines into utterances of a collective national voice. While Tcharents is largely identified with his role as a legendary figure of anti-Soviet activities in Armenia (he died, aged 40, in a Stalinist prison in Yerevan) Mansurian, who has read and admired him all his life, concentrates on poems dealing with the secrets of poetic expression and the “relationship between life and poetry”
