Armenian Churches: Documents of a Past
Dr. Christina Maranci considers the important role Armenian church architecture can play in historical study. Through inscription, sculpture and painting, these structures reflect the social, economic, and political contexts in which they were built and can reveal much that is still unknown about the history of Asia Minor. With many Armenian churches in critical condition and on brink of collapse, Dr. Maranci argues for the importance of preserving these centuries-old monuments for their significance both to a modern culture and to historians.
