Parrot’s Journey to Mount Ararat: Some Observations
Klaus Geus · 2021
Catalogue summary
Friedrich Parrot's 1829 ascent of Mount Ararat with Khachatur Abovian, two Russian soldiers, and two Armenian peasants is read against travel-literary conventions and ancient sources, especially Strabo's Geography.
Why this matters
The chapter connects a landmark expedition with Abovian's role and the textual traditions shaping its later account.
