Truth in Telling: Reconciling Realities in the Genocide of the Ottoman Armenians

Ronald Grigor Suny · 2009

Catalogue summary

Suny examines competing interpretations of the Ottoman Armenian catastrophe and the uses of revisionism in historical argument. The article distinguishes evidence-led historical revision from nationalist accounts that justify or deny organized violence.

Why this matters

It gives readers a clear historiographical entry point for assessing how evidence, political memory, and state narratives shape public discussion of the Armenian Genocide.
