Daredevils of Sasun: Poetics of an Epic

By Prof. Azat Yeghiazaryan

Translated from the Armenian by S. Peter Cowe.

Passed down by word of mouth through the magic of live performance art for a millenium and a half till its scholarly transcription in the late 19th century, the Armenian Epic, Daredevils of Sasun presents a rich legacy of accumulated folk wisdom.

Evolving from mythic roots through folkloric antecedents up to its main period of gestation (8th - 12th centuries C.E), it tells the tale of the life, loves and heroic struggles of four generations of the House of Sasun to establish their patrimony and uphold the weal of their community against foreign onslaughts.
