История и культура Армении в восприятии В.Я. Брюсова

Abstract

In his works devoted to history of Armenia V. Brusov writes that Armenian culture has evolved over thousands of years as a result of the merger of Eastern and Western elements from Asia and Europe. The poet is quite well aware of the history of Armenia, but many of his statements, especially those about the initial stages of the formation of the Armenian people, resulted from the achievements of the historical science of that time and have long been obsolete. Nevertheless, it is obvious how cordially he treats the historical fate of the Armenian people, and how highly he values the centuries-old Armenian culture.
