I-II -- The vardapet T'ovma Mecopec'i (1378-1446) played an important role in the history of the Armenian Church. He was a supporter of the transfer of the Catholicate from Sis to Êmiacin in 1441. Although he wrote a number of works of linguistic, hagiographic, and exegetical content, he is mostly known for his History of Tamerlane and his successors. Scholars were mostly interested in the political and military content of this work, which is considered among the most significant sources for the study of the Timurid conquest of Southern Caucasus and Armenia and the subsequent expansion of the Qara Qoyunlu tribal confederation. No attention has been paid to the reason why T'ovma Mecopec'i wrote a Patmut'iwn. The paper examines T'ovma's conception of history and shows the close connection existing between the composition of this work and his teaching activity as a vardapet. In fact, according to the prologue of the History, dealing with time (i.e., past, present and future) is part of the teaching of a vardapet. However, the educational value of history does not reside in transmitting a knowledge of facts, but rather in warning the disciples about their future conduct in tune with lessons learned from historical events.

Punto metallico. 15pp -- The story of the visit of the Armenian king Trdat and St. Gregory the Illuminator to Emperor Constantine was rewritten and re-elaborated several times from the 5th century to the 13th century. The article focuses on how the roles played in the story by Trdat and Gregory changed over the centuries, not only according to the different reasons of its reworking but also with respect to the different historical and political scenarios in which the revision took place. Key-words: Trdat/Tiridates; Constantine the Great; Gregory the Illuminator; Armenian literature.

Punto metallico. 36pp --- Nersss Snorhali (1102-1173) is a key figure in the dialogue between the Armenian and the Byzantine churches of the twelfth century. His writings are witness to a sincere desire for the unity of the Church. However, his vision of unity was too innovative to be able to be shared by his interlocutors, who remained firmly attached to the idea of a union based on the Armenians' capitulating and adhering to the «orthodox» positions of the Byzantines. Nersês norhali was convinced that the divisions between Christians needed to be achieved without creating new ruptures within his own Church, which had already been touched by the schism of Aát'amar and the centrifugal tendencies of which he was well aware. As he saw things, the lack of an Armenian political power lay at the root of the break-up of his nation, which he considered a people in exile, both on account of the lack of a political centre of gravity and on account of the historical vicissitudes of the Armenian plateau. Nevertheless, Nersês nourished the hope that, just as the position of catholicos had returned to the descendants of Gregory the Illuminator (i.e. the Pahlawuni, to whom he belonged), so likewise the royal power might be able to be restored to the true princes, perhaps to be identified with the Hethumidi. Through their familial relationship with the Pahlawuni, the Hethumidi were able to present themselves as descendants of the ancient dynasty of the Arsacids, with whom the Pahlawuni claimed a shared origin.
