  • Calouste Gulbenkian's Long Path, from His Childhood in Istanbul to The
    CALOUSTE GULBENKIAN PRIZE (2017-2021) Regulation 2017 edition INTRODUCTION Calouste Gulbenkian’s long path, from his childhood in Istanbul to the latter years of his life in Lisbon (emblematic cities at the eastern and western edges of Europe), shaped his personality and influenced the Foundation that he decided to create in Portugal as a Portuguese institution. A pioneer in the oil industry, a demanding art collector, a diplomat and philanthropist, Calouste Gulbenkian was a perfect example of the synthesis of the eastern culture of his birth and origins, and the western culture in which he was educated and lived. Other revealing features of his character were his great sensitivity towards the harmony of nature and a particular taste for admiring its beauty. The Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation, an international philanthropic institution, open to the world, seeks to support actions which contribute to the construction of a fairer and more solidary society, where equal opportunities and sustainability help to prepare the citizens of the future. The Calouste Gulbenkian Prize is given annually. It aims to pay tribute to the Founder, recognizing individuals or institutions that have distinguished themselves, due to their relevance and work in the area of Human Rights. FIRST Objective and Term 1. The Calouste Gulbenkian Prize aim to recognise an individual or a private non- profit legal person who have distinguished themselves internationally in the defence and implementation of Human Rights. In 2017, special attention will be given to refugee issues. SECOND Value The value of the Calouste Gulbenkian Prize will be 100,000 € (one hundred thousand euros). THIRD Decision Making Procedure 1.

  • “Calouste Gulbenkian (1869S1955)
    The California State University, Fresno Armenian Studies Program and the Leon S. Peters Foundation present “CALOUSTE GULBENKIAN (1869-1955) AND THE ‘PASDURMA PROBLEM’” PRESENTED BY JONATHAN CONLIN, UNIV. OF SOUTHAMPTON Born into the Armenian merchant elite of Istanbul in 1869, the renowned oil magnate Calouste Gulbenkian made his fortune as a ‘business architect,’ persuading rival oil companies to collaborate for their mutual enrichment, particularly in the Middle East. The violent collapse of the Ottoman Empire, the Armenian Genocide and the attempt to establish a secure “Armenian National Home” at Versailles barely affected Gulbenkian, who appeared uninterested in being a “good Armenian.” His fellow Armenians nonetheless looked to him as benefector and leader of their diaspora. He was thus appointed to the presidency of the Armenian General Benevolent Union. This talk will consider the biographer’s challenges in addressing what Gulbenkian’s daughter dubbed “the pasdurma problem”: the question of how to situate oneself as a family which showed little interest either in being “good Armenians” or in as- similation. It argues that Gulbenkian’s cosmopolitanism reflected the “amira” class from which he hailed as much as it did that supranational world of multi-national oil companies whose emergence Gulbenkian did so much to foster. Born in New York, Jonathan Conlin studied history and modern languages at Oxford before undertaking gradu- ate degrees at the Courtauld Institute and Cambridge, where he was subsequently appointed a Fellow of Sidney Sussex College. Since 2006 he has taught history at the University of Southampton. His books include a history of the National Gallery (London), a comparative history of Paris and London and a biography of Adam Smith.

  • The Cost of Memorializing: Analyzing Armenian Genocide Memorials and Commemorations in the Republic of Armenia and in the Diaspora
    INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL FOR HISTORY, CULTURE AND MODERNITY www.history-culture-modernity.org Published by: Uopen Journals Copyright: © The Author(s). Content is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Licence eISSN: 2213-0624 The Cost of Memorializing: Analyzing Armenian Genocide Memorials and Commemorations in the Republic of Armenia and in the Diaspora Sabrina Papazian HCM 7: 55–86 DOI: 10.18352/hcm.534 Abstract In April of 1965 thousands of Armenians gathered in Yerevan and Los Angeles, demanding global recognition of and remembrance for the Armenian Genocide after fifty years of silence. Since then, over 200 memorials have been built around the world commemorating the vic- tims of the Genocide and have been the centre of hundreds of marches, vigils and commemorative events. This article analyzes the visual forms and semiotic natures of three Armenian Genocide memorials in Armenia, France and the United States and the commemoration prac- tices that surround them to compare and contrast how the Genocide is being memorialized in different Armenian communities. In doing so, this article questions the long-term effects commemorations have on an overall transnational Armenian community. Ultimately, it appears that calls for Armenian Genocide recognition unwittingly categorize the global Armenian community as eternal victims, impeding the develop- ment of both the Republic of Armenia and the Armenian diaspora. Keywords: Armenian Genocide, commemoration, cultural heritage, diaspora, identity, memorials HCM 2019, VOL. 7 Downloaded from Brill.com10/05/202155 12:33:22PM via free access PAPAZIAN Introduction On 24 April 2015, the hundredth anniversary of the commencement of the Armenian Genocide, Armenians around the world collectively mourned for and remembered their ancestors who had lost their lives in the massacres and deportations of 1915.1 These commemorations took place in many forms, including marches, candlelight vigils, ceremo- nial speeches and cultural performances.
