Content: Complete Work

Abraham Charean (1819-1892), scholar and translator affiliated with the Mekhitarist Congregation on San Lazzaro Island (Venice). Born in Constantinople, Charean joined the Mekhitarists in 1840 and pursued a career as a translator and cultural mediator between classical/European texts and the Armenian readership. He translated several authors, including Thucydides, Plato, Sallust, and Caesar. His work forms part of the nineteenth-century Mekhitarist effort to render canonical Western and classical texts into Armenian and to develop modern Armenian scholarly publishing.
