This study comes at an appropriate time. For a decade now, Armenians have been engaged in a worldwide national liberation struggle that has often focused attention on them and their culture. A synoptic view of their literature can therefore be very illuminating. Little is known about it in the United States or elsewhere, however. New Writing from the Middle East, edited by Leo Hamalian and John Yohannan (New American Library, 1978), devotes five hopelessly inadequate pages to 2,000 years of literature, with nothing on the contemporary period. Anthology of Armenian Poetry, translated and edited by Diana Der Hovanessian and Marzbed Margossian (Columbia University Press, 1978), does give some space to modern poets, but the critical introduction is again insufficient. The Armenia issue of the Review of National Literatures which I guest-edited in 1984 contains a great deal of material but stops short of the present times. A very brief historical background is thus in order
