TANIEL VAROUZHAN ANNUAL LECTURE

Taniel Varouzhan (1884-1915) is one of the most celebrated Armenian poets, whose poetry set a milestone in Armenian literature in the early 20th century. He was an alumnus of Ghent University, which has dedicated a commemorative plaque in his honor.

The Taniel Varouzhan Annual Lecture is the brainchild of the Centre for Western Armenian Studies, which seeks to immortalize the memory and legacy of this great writer in Ghent. Every year prominent academics or intellectuals are invited to Ghent University to speak on topics related to Armenian Studies and Armenians in general.

The Arslanian Foundation sponsors this annual lecture, providing vital support for the organization’s continued existence.
