Research Projects and Seminars

Collaboration with Leverhulme Visiting Professor Valentina Calzolari, Trinity Term 2023 (also Hilary and Trinity Terms 2021)

Dr Valentina Calzolari, Full Professor in Armenian Studies at the University of Geneva and corresponding member of the Institut de France (Académie des Inscriptions et Belles-Lettres) will be in Oxford from May 19 to end July of this year as Leverhulme Visiting Professor, working with Theo Maarten van Lint, Calouste Gulbenkian Professor of Armenian Studies. This follows upon her six-month stay in Oxford from February to July 2021, in the same capacity. Professor Calzolari’s double background in Classics and Armenian Studies informs her expertise in the “Hellenising School” of Armenian literature and in the transmission of Neoplatonism in Armenia, both part of the transmission of the Greek heritage in Armenia.

2021 Eight Text-Reading Seminars: Hilary and Trinity Terms 
During the Hilary and Trinity Terms, Prof. Calzolari will offer a text-reading Seminar on the Armenian translation of the commentaries of David, and especially of the Prolegomena, open to all staff and students in Armenian Studies, Classics, History of Philosophy, Linguistics, and others who might profit from them. The text will be translated and commented in English in order to make it accessible also to people without Armenian or Greek, but interested in the content of the works and in the modalities of the transmission of Greek thought. They are all very much welcome. The original texts will be available both in Armenian and in Greek, and commented upon, for people mastering one or both of these languages.

Other Projects

  • The Letters of Grigor Magistros Pahlavuni (985-1058): translation and commentary. Grigor Magistros Pahlavuni (985-1059) was an erudite layman, whose epistolary is a mine of information on theology, literature, mythology, politics and other matters. The language of the letters is often complex, and represents an example of Grecising Armenian. Their translation and commentary is a desideratum in Armenian studies and is of importance for adjacent fields as well.

  • The Reception of the Throne Vision of Ezekiel in Armenian Literature and Art.

    The prophet Ezekiel's vision at the river Chebar in Babylon has given rise to mystical and political interpretations in Armenia, expressed in biblical commentaries, poems, manuscript illuminations and other works of art for over a millennium.  I am working on two larger texts:

    • Vardan Anec‘i’s Panegyric on the Divine Chariot (10th-11th c.): Translation and commentary; 
    • Esayi Nč‘ec‘i’s Commentary on the Book of Ezekiel (1303): Critical edition, translation, and study.
    •  
  • Translation into Dutch of Grigor Narekac‘i's Book of Lamentation (Մատեան ողղբերգութեան). The first 15 (of 95) prayer-poems were published in November 2018, entitled Grigor Narekatsi. Het Boek Der Weeklaging. Gebeden 1-15 (Yerevan: Tigran Mec).

  • Ashough Poetry and Storytelling: Asli and Kearam. In cooperation with Ms Vergine Gulbenkian, London based storyteller.

  • Kostandin Erznkac’i (13th-14th c.): his poems, their function, and their environment.

  • Editing, together with Dr Emilio Bonfiglio (Universität Hamburg) of the volume on Literature in the Handbook of Armenian Studies of the Association Internationale des Etudes Arméniennes, published by Brill, Leiden.

  • Editing of a collaborative volume on the treatise Concerning the Iconoclasts by Vrt‘anēs Kert‘oł, containing the proceedings of a workshop organised together with Professors Christina Maranci (Tufts), Thomas F. Mathews (emeritus, NYU) and Jaś Elsner (Oxford). The volume will also contain a new translation of the treatise, by Christina Maranci and Theo Maarten van Lint.
