In this first of a massive three-volume work, Seta B. Dadoyan studies the Armenian
experience in the medieval Islamic world and takes the reader through hitherto undiscovered
paradigmatic cases of interaction with other populations in the region. Being an Armenian,
Dadoyan argues, means having an ethnic ancestry laden with narratives drawn from the
vast historic Armenian habitat. Contradictory trends went into the making of Armenian
history, yet most narratives fail to reflect this rich texture. Linking Armenian-Islamic
history is one way of dealing with the problem. Dadoyan's concern is also to outline
revolutionary elements in the making of Armenian ideologies and politics. This extensive
work captures the multidimensional nature of the Armenian experience in the medieval
Islamic world. The author holds that every piece of literature, including historical
writing, is an artifact. It is a composition of many elements arranged in certain
forms: order, sequence, proportion, detail, intensity, etc. The author has composed
and arranged the larger subjects and their sub-themes in such a way as to create an
open, dynamic continuity to Armenian history that is intellectually intriguing, aesthetically
appealing, and close to lived experiences
