contributed to by Prof. Richard G. Hovannisian, Past Holder of the
AEF Chair in Modern History at UCLA and currently Distinguished
Chancellor’s Fellow at Chapman University in Orange County.
Armenian
Kesaria/Kayseri and Cappadocia focuses on the history, religion,
economic and social life, and cultural, educational, and political
developments among the Armenians in the city of Kesaria (Gesaria) and
its many outlying villages, such as Talas, Everek, Fenesse, Tomarza,
Chomakhlu, Injesu, Efkere, and Germir. Contributors to the volume, aside
from Hovannisian, include scholars James R. Russell, Robert W. Thomson,
Gérard Dédéyan, Dickran Kouymjian, Sylvie L. Merian, Bedross Der
Matossian, Hervé Georgelin, Jack Der-Sarkissian, Simon Payaslian, Tina
Demirjian, and Vartan Matiossian.
This volume derives from one of the eighteen international
conferences organized by Prof. Hovannisian between 1997 and 2010
relating to important historic Armenian regions, nearly all of which are
now devoid of their native Armenian inhabitants. The other volumes in this series are Armenian Van/Vaspurakan (out of
print); Baghesh/Bitlis and Taron/Mush (out of print); Tsopk/Kharpert (out of print); Karin/Erzerum (out of print); Sebastia/Sivas and Lesser Armenia; Tigranakert/Diarbekir and Edessa/Urfa; Cilicia; Pontus and the Black Sea Communities; Kars and Ani; Constantinople; and Smyrna/Izmir.
