Nov 7 2006
Armenia’s prestigious Matenadaran manuscripts archive will loan out
rare translations of Greek texts from classical antiquity for the use
by scholars in Greece, under an agreement struck on Tuesday between
Greek Parliament Vice-President George Sourlas and his visiting
Armenian counterpart Vahan Hovanesian.
According to a press release issued by Parliament, the texts will
include works attributed to Plato, for which the original Greek text
has been lost.
