Today "Vardanank and Armenian Youth" book by Vardan Devrikyan was
published. A meeting was organized in Matenadaran.

According to the author, he tried to express the spiritual value of
Vardan’s and Avarayr war in the history.

"I wished to show Vardan’s history with nowadays Armenians and their
social and psychological world. I showed not only the analysis of the
war, but how it mirrored on the future generations. What made Vardan
such a powerful image," said tha author.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
