Title: A Glance into the History of Armenia through Cartographic Records
Author: Rouben Galichian
Place of publication: London
Publisher: Bennett & Bloom
Release date: 2015
The book is designed as a catalogue to accompany Rouben Galichian’s exhibition of cartographic texts and images of Armenia to be presented across various countries of the world during the Armenian Genocide Centenary year of 2015. The aim of the exhibition is to make public a selection of cartographic images in which snippets of the history of Armenia could be seen through the eyes of the Ancient, Greco-Roman, Byzantine, Islamic and Western geographers and cartographers. In ancient and medieval times maps were rare documents; therefore in many cases maps depicting significant moments and events of the history of various nations are not readily available. Sometimes historical and political events took place in such quick succession that it is not possible to prepare maps to record all the events in their real timescale. Indeed, many events have passed without being shown or recorded on maps at all. Nevertheless, the book intends to present the sequence of events determining the course of the Armenian history as much as possible through maps prepared near the actual time of the occurrence.
