INTERPRETATION OF CANTO OF GR. NAREKATSI ENTITLED «RESURRECTION” – 2014-4

Summary

Haykazun. S. Alvrtsyan

The canto “Resurrection” (begins with the line “The cart was going down the mountain Masis”) by Gregory of Narek is his only writing that he did not include in Gandzatetr, later it was not included in Gandzaran (Treasury) too. The question arises – why? The answer to the question is important because the resolution of this issue is going to contribute to the interpretation of the content expressed with help of some spiritual allegory. Many linguists, literary scholars and translators have tried to interpret this canto, but there is still no single, final and complete interpretation, which would respond to all the answers. Taking into account the previous interpretations, the author tried to reinterpret and answer to the above question by analyzing this sample of exceptionally reasonable speech (covenant) basing upon spiritual interpretation, and especially upon the system of interpretation of Gregory of Narek.
