Revolutionary Literature, Republished
A digital library of the books that shaped the Armenian revolutionary generation — republished free, in the original Armenian and in new English translation, as interactive editions built for reading and exploring.
Most of these works have never been easy to find, and harder still to read outside Armenian. Translating them into English opens them to the generation that studies, organizes, and thinks in English — without letting go of the originals, which stay on the page beside the translation. This is a new way of reading Armenian literature, and the shelf is only getting longer.
