Description

LA QUESTIONE ARMENA volume VI continues the coverage of the period 1908-1925 and brings together the documents kept in the Vatican Secret Archives and in the Archivio Storico della Segreteria di Stato, Sezione per I Rapporti con gli Stati, dated between 9th March 1921 and 20nd February 1923.The documents concentrate on the painful period of the evacuation of Cilicia by the French troops following the London Agreement of March 1921 and on the policy of eradication of Christianity pursued by the Kemalist regime in Angora. The Holy See was working in vain for the creation of an Armenian nationalhomeland, or at least for the introduction of guarantees for the rights of the Christian minorities. At the same time, it was also extending its normal humanitarian care to those caught up in the mass exodus of Armenians from Turkey. The volume reproduces the documents, most of which are hitherto unpublished, in chronological order. These are supported by short biographies of the main protagonists, by indices (of names and places as well as of the documents themselves), and by a glossary of specialist terms. Georges-Henri Ruyssen SJ, a Belgian Jesuit born in 1967, teaches at the Pontifical Oriental Institute (Rome) as well as at the Centre Sèvres (the Jesuit Faculties in Paris). He has edited La Questione Armena Vol. I, 1894-1896, Documenti dell’Archivio Segreto Vaticano (ASV); Vol. II, 1894-1896, Documenti dell’Archivio della Congregazione per le Chiese orientali (ACO); Vol. III, 1908-1925, Documenti dell’Archivio della Congregazione per le Chiese orientali (ACO); Vol. IV,1908-1925, Documenti dell’Archivio Segreto Vaticano (ASV) & dell’Archivio Storico della Segreteria di Stato, Sezione per i Rapporti con gli Stati (SS.RR.SS.) and Vol. V, 1908-1925, Documenti dell’Archivio Segreto Vaticano (ASV) & dell’Archivio Storico della Segreteria di Stato, Sezione per i Rapporti con gli Stati (SS.RR.SS.), Edizioni Orientalia Christiana – Valore Italiano Lilamé Roma, 2013-2014-2015.
