Entry updated 21 March 2022. Tagged: International.
A full entry for sf in Armenia must await a contributor fluent in its language and able to report from the inside on the development of the genre there, and on untranslated works. Relevant authors given entries in this encyclopedia are Michael Arlen, of Bulgarian-Armenian origin; the Turkish-Armenia-born US Gregory Casparian; Mariam Petrosyan; and G Gurdjieff. One of Jonathan Swift's many imitators was the Venetian-Armenian Zaccaria Seriman (1708-1784): see Italy.
The country's contributions to sf Cinema include the animated films of Robert Sahakyants (whom see for descriptions and links to relevant film entries). [DRL]
