On the Verge of Death and Survival: Krikor Bogharian’s Diary

Ümit Kurt · 2023

Catalogue summary

Krikor Bogharian's Armenian-language diary is presented as evidence for deportation and survival around Aintab, countering scholarship that relies mainly on Ottoman archives and neglects personal Armenian testimony.

Why this matters

The chapter demonstrates how a first-person Armenian source can complicate the archival balance in genocide history and recover experiences obscured by language barriers.
