Description


Charents Museum of Literature and Arts

The Charents Museum of Literature and Arts (Armenian: Չարենցի անվան գրականության և արվեստի թանգարան (Charents'i anvan grakanut'yan yev arvesti t'angaran)) of Armenia is the largest repository of Armenian manuscripts and books encompassing the last three hundred years. Originally conceived in 1954 as the Museum of Literature and Arts of Armenian Soviet Socialist Republic, the institution has evolved into a notable research center, where the archives of some six hundred Armenian authors, playwrights and musicians are presently housed. Beginning with 1967, the Museum has been named after the Armenian poet Yeghishe Charents.[1]
