On Monday, December 3, 2012, the Paris Chapter of Hamazkayin presented historian Claude Mutafian’s newly published book, L’Arménie du Levant (XIe-XIVe siècle) [“Armenia in the Levant (11th–14th centuries)”], at the Armenian Cultural House in Paris. This important work (published by Les Belles Lettres) sheds light on the unprecedented position and political role of the Armenian Kingdom of Cilicia in the Middle East during the medieval period.
Through a slideshow presentation, Mutafian demonstrated the historical documents, images and maps of his two-volume book. Agnes Ouzounian, expert of Classical Armenian, and Eric Van Leove, maps specialist, who had contributed to the publication of the book, were among the attendees of the event.
