    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ Associate Doctor of Philology Susanna Hovhannisyan
    is the author of Hovhannes Tumanyan's scientific biography, tremendous
    work depicting the great poet's life in a new light.

    "This is something absolutely new in terms of introducing Tumanyan's
    biography. Strange though it is, there are so far no available records
    describing the great poet's life after 1900," Susanna Hovhannisyan
    told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter. According to her, the book reflects
    the key moments of the Tumanyan's life from 1900 to 1912.

    The book was written in May but has not been published due to the lack
    of financial means. "The absence of Pushkin's scientific biography
    was estimated as a cultural loss in Moscow, whereas our government
    does not even think about assisting in the publication of Hovhannes
    Tumanyan's scientific biography," the author said.

    Great Armenian poet and public figure Hovhannes T. Tumanyan was born on
    February 19, 1869 in Dsegh, Lori region (north Armenia), to a family
    of parish priest. In 1878-83, he studied in Djalalogli (Stepanavan)
    local school and then continued his education Nersisyan college
    (Tbilisi). However, after 3 years of studies, financial hardships
    caused the future writer to drop out of school. Tumanyan started
    writing in the early 1880s, but gained the recognition of poet after
    the publication of his first collection of poems. Hovhannes Tumanyan
    died in 1923.
