On November 19-20 by the support of the literature institute after
Manuk Abeghyan and the Union of the Armenian Writers took place
a republican scientific session dedicated to the modern Armenian
issues. This time the session was dedicated to the young literary
critics.

As one of the organizers of the session Arqmenik Nikoghosyan told in
the phone conversation with Aysor.am during the Soviet times republican
conferences of young literary critics were being held. Now they wish
to reestablish the tradition again.

According to A. Nikoghosyan on this conference applied 24 young
literary critics whose age is not above 30.

"The primary aim of our conference is to see what the young literary
critic is doing today, which are the issues of his study, which are
his problems, and the most important thing how deep is he in his
researches", – stressed Arqemnik Nikoghosyan.

He also informed that in the sphere of the literary criticism there
are very talented young people who can’t dedicate themselves to the
literary criticism completely as most of them working in M. Abeghyan’s
literature institute get 30.000 drams of salary and do parallel works
which disturbs the scientific work of the young scientists.

The Republican scientific session of young critical scientists was
organized by Arqemnik Nikoghosyan, Hrachya Saribekyan, and Gevorg
Emin-Teryan.
