Academic journal
Revue des Etudes Armeniennes
is a
peer-reviewed
academic journal
that publishes articles relating to
Classical
and
medieval
Armenian history
,
art history
,
philology
,
linguistics
, and
literature
.
[1]
The
Revue
was established in 1920 at the initiative of French scholars
Frederic Macler
and
Antoine Meillet
.
[2]
Meillet himself wrote many of the articles during the formative years of the journal (1920?1933), which typically covered Armenian history,
grammar
, and
folk tales
, including the modern period. The
Revue
was not published from 1934 to 1963.
[2]
In 1964, thanks to the efforts of the Paris-based Armenian scholar Haig Berberian (1887?1978), the journal was revived. Berberian was able to secure the financial backing of the
Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation
for the journal's publication, and the first volume of the "Nouvelle serie" appeared under his editorship in 1964.
[3]
However, the publication of articles on the modern period of Armenian history was abandoned, and the journal has since limited its scope from ancient to
early modern period
history (that is, until roughly the eighteenth century).
[1]
Up until 1933, articles were published in French, but when publication resumed articles were also published in English and German.
[2]
[4]
The journal uses the Hubschmann-Meillet-Benveniste system in the transcription of Armenian words into Latin characters. In addition to scholarly articles, it also publishes
book reviews
.
The former editors of the journal during the new series were
Emile Benveniste
(nominally, 1964-1975, as Berberian was responsible for much of the editing during this time),
Georges Dumezil
(1975-1980), and
Sirarpie Der-Nersessian
(1981?1989).
[2]
Its current editor is Aram Mardirossian.
