Abstract

This volume gathers essays by scholars of different backgrounds dedicated to the narratives that visitors, merchants, missionaries and travellers of various historical periods and origins have dedicated to Armenia, its history and culture. Through the analysis of primary sources and unpublished documents, the theme of travel to Armenia is addressed from historical, art-historical, religious, philological and literary perspectives, covering a period of almost a thousand years.
