CATHOLICOSATE OF CILICIA PUBLISHES
THE SEMINARY YEARBOOK "KLATSOR"
The new issue, volume XIII of the Seminary yearbook "Klatsor" has been
published in Antelias on the initiative of a special editorial board formed
of Seminary students working under the guidance of the administration.
Encompassing 263 pages, the yearbook is the mirror reflecting the
spiritual and intellectual formation of the Seminary students. Confined to
their solitude in a healthy religious and national environment in Bikfaya,
Seminary students work on several projects throughout the year in addition
to their day-to-day lessons: research articles, analytical writings, music
compositions and other literary and artistic works.
Seminary Dean V. Rev. Shahe Panossian writes in the introduction to the
volume: "Although this volume is a beautiful collection of personal
writings, "Klatsor" is a group initiative. The writings in its express not
only our students’ individual aspirations and thoughts but depict a true
picture of the atmosphere of creativity and religious life in the Seminary."
The Dean presented the first copy of the new volume to His Holiness Aram I
as the result of a year of fruitful work. The Pontiff highly praised the
collective work, considering it the first step of the Seminary students’
spiritual-intellectual formation, where the feelings of the new generation
towards our nation and church are reflected.
