DESCRIPTION OF PROBLEMS OF EXISTENTIALISM AND PRESERVATION OF NATIONAL IDENTITY IN THE CONTEXT OF ARMENIAN-AMERICAN LITERATURE OF THE 20TH CENTURY

Nelli Galstyan · 2023

Catalogue summary

Surveying Armenian-American writers from Hamastegh and Saroyan to Najarian and Kherdian, the article frames language, custom, memory, and worldview as defenses against existential displacement and assimilation.

Why this matters

The broad literary genealogy helps readers trace shared identity concerns across several generations of twentieth-century Armenian writing in America.
