Literary Forum "The Armenian language; past, present and future" invited by the book club of Gladzor Chapter took place on 18 January 2015, at Y. Manoukian Library in the presence of 100 attendees.
The Forum Conductor Tamar Donabedian Guzuean announced in her speech about the third anniversary of the book club saying that the goal of the past 28 forums has been to raise greatest affection for literature among the youth. Later, she invited the gifted students of ARS Daily School Tessil Saghtchyan and Teresa Martirosyan to recite Mushegh Ishkhan’s poem "The Armenian Language is the Home of Armenians".
Mushegh Karakashian made a brief overview on the past of the language followed by the discussion on the retreat of the West Armenian language. The participants of the discussion expressed various views and concerns. Some suggestions were made for the future steps. However, the conductor of the Forum assured that there was no need to find impulsive solutions but to think and discuss the topic and to talk about the future projects later, during the next Forums.
The Forum was highly appreciated by the attendees.
