These individuals relied on debate and interaction with one another to form coherence from a range of disparate views. This talk explores constitutional reform and the politics of communal organization and administration among Ottoman-Armenians by contextualizing the Armenian National Constitution (Հայոց Ազգային Սահմանադրութիւն/Hayots’ Azgayin Sahmanadrut’iwn) of 1863 as an element within the wider framework of Ottoman social\, religious\, political\, and educational reforms in the 19th and 20th centuries. \nNote: All the guests are required to present a proof of vaccination or negative COVID-19 PCR test results or proof of being tested positive within the past 90 days. \nAbout the Speaker: \nVarak Ketsemanian is a PhD candidate at the Department of Near Eastern Studies at Princeton University. from the Department of Near Eastern Studies at Princeton University.
