"Armenian Legends and Poems" by Zabelle C. Boyajian is a collection of translated legends and poetry from Armenian culture, likely compiled in the early 20th century. The anthology aims to commemorate the rich but often overlooked literary heritage of Armenia, encapsulating its struggles, beauty, and enduring spirit through various poems and stories. It includes contributions from notable figures such as Viscount Bryce and Aram Raffi, providing insights into Armenia's historical and artistic landscape. The opening of this anthology sets the tone for a deeply respectful exploration of Armenian art and literature, introducing the reader to the plight of the Armenian people throughout history and the significance of their cultural output. Boyajian reflects on the challenges of translating Armenian works that embody the unique rhythm and imagery of the language while acknowledging the omission of several renowned authors for brevity. The text conveys a commitment to honoring the Armenian spirit and encourages further interest in the nation's literary treasures, promising the potential for future compilations that could illuminate even more of Armenia's rich cultural heritage.
