This monograph is dedicated to the pre-Genocide history of the Kurdish-speaking Armenians of the Ottoman provinces of Bitlis and Diyarbekir (Tigranakert). The history of this unique and often overlooked population is examined in the wider sociopolitical contexts of Ottoman and Western Armenian life. For the first time, a detailed district-by-district demographic picture is provided of the area of Kurdish-speaking Armenian habitation. There follows a discussion of several questions relating to Kurdish-speaking Armenians’ identity, including their self-conception, description by other Armenians and foreign travellers, and the place of linguistically assimilated Armenians amid competing religious and linguistic paradigms of national identity during the late Ottoman period. A separate chapter is dedicated to efforts to educate Kurdish-speaking Armenians in their ancestral language: their driving motives, their results, and their reflection of the aspirations and hardships characteristic of Armenian life in the Kurdish-speaking provinces at the turn of the 20th century. The final chapter presents a bibliographical list and discussion of all known Kurdish-language books printed in the Armenian alphabet.
