Abstract
The story starts with a letter-petition of Stepanos Nazaryants dated March 13, 1856, to the Minister of Public Education of Russia Norov, in which he detailed his intention to publish a journal in modern Armenian in Moscow. The Russian government did not create particular obstacles for the Armenian sholar to publish the journal, which seems a little strange for those times, bearing in mind the fact that Nazaryants belonged to the liberal wing of the Armenian national movement. In the petition of St. Nazaryants detailed the goals and objectives of the new edition; he presented it not as a social-political, but as a literary journal, a periodical for Armenians living in Russia, which should serve to provide information on Russian education, “informing my compatriots about the Russian science, introducing the Russian thought and life to them,” as writes Nazaryants.
