There are many types of dialects in Armenian language, enough beautiful and rich, unique manifestations of “alive language”. In this article we refer for teaching dialects in primary school and high school either. For teaching dialectal realities we offer some methodical tricks also methods. There is no allotted time in the program of state Armenian language at middle school for teaching dialects, but considering the fact that in the state program of “Literature” there are many included works written with different dialects, that means we have to refer for linguistic realities of its teaching. Considering age characteristics in the primary school, we found it appropriate to organize the teaching of dialectal realities using the techniques of 1. Mystery, 2. Guessing, 3. Surprise, unexpectedness , which give students the opportunity to arouse interest in the taught material. In high school, we pay more attention to knowledge-based realities, referring to literary Armenian-dialect-slang concepts. We offer materials for independent research, making posters, filming videos. Thus, referring to the teaching of dialect realities in primary and high school, we can note that: In the primary school, it is preferable to use guesswork, surprise, mystery and other such tricks that will arouse interest among students. In high school, we offer more knowledge-based methods, such as lectures, independent research and group work. These realities are an important foundation that prepares high school students for higher education.

The literature on existentialists and the quest for identity is the focus of the following article. We talk about the challenge of determining a person's true existence, which primarily arises in ambiguous circumstances. All of the nation's and people's creative and intellectual output that sustains and advances life stems from race. Being a unique and inimitable work of art is impossible without the identity of the race. Furthermore, Jewish-American literature has been and will continue to be shaped by the dedication to race and genetic principles. The blending of cultures from several nations is perhaps the cornerstone of contemporary ideas in American literature. Literature that combines two cultures—one as a result of forced printing—has a unique position in the canon of world literature. This literature's subject is not restricted to genes, races, or cultures; rather, its primary focus is on the hostility that foreign-born citizens of one nation encounter. Heroes in existential fiction are people who deal with gray areas. For Jews, the Holocaust is exactly the precarious scenario that presents challenges related to identity loss, identity search, and identity preservation. Thus, the goal of the literature on identity quest is to create a path toward psychological and mental liberation. The ideas of existential philosophy and literature, which finds its direct carrier in Jewish-American literature, are closely linked to works of literature that address questions of identity recognition and inner liberation.

Folklore plays an important role in the life and culture of African-Americans. The novel "Song of Solomon" is based on various stories, myths and legends, particularly the Biblical "Song of Song", the myth of the flying African and the folk tale. The main message of the novel is to be close to the roots. The importance is the role of ethnic self-awareness in the formation and completeness of the personality. The article presents the ideology of the novel “Song of Solomon” through an analysis of its plot, characters, message and artistic expressions, in which the central idea is the connection of individual and ethnic identities. The author's message is presented in which the issue of preserving ethnic identity is central. The idea of freedom is symbolized in the novel through a person's flight to his ethnic origins. Morrison equates the ideas of freedom and identity, and discusses the idea of eternity. In today's rapidly changing world, when scientific and technological progress and globalization processes have a direct impact on the psychology and lifestyle of modern man, preserving identity can be considered one of the tasks facing humanity. Personal identity, which is also in demand along with ethnic identity, has become one of the vulnerable problems of the modern world, the solution of which depends on the issue of the existence of peoples with different cultures. Naturally, this problem is of greater concern to small countries, which find it more difficult to resist the pressure of globalization. The novel was also studied from the point of view of the methodology of magical realism, revealing features characteristic of this direction. The use of symbols is a feature of magical realism, which seems to help Toni Morrison convey the idea of the work to the reader.

In the article, we discussed the language policy of the Armenian-language periodicals of the 19th century, which was characterized by the influence of translation trends and principles formed in different language environments and reflected in literary translations. Some positive cultural and educational changes were ensured in the Armenian communities previously suffering in harsh geopolitical situations. Thanks to those changes a number of Armenian schools and printing houses were opened, and periodical press contributed to the development of translated secular literature, especially for children and young readers. Along with creating original literature, Armenians having long history of translations, turned to the translation of valuable pieces of world literature. The study of literature provided an opportunity to validate the course of the literary-historical development of the Armenian language in the context of the 19th century. The period was marked first by the transition from Classical Armenian to Modern Armenian, then the development of the Eastern and Western Armenian branches, which was directly reflected in the language of the translated literature. These processes took place in the absence of a unified independent state, and the language policy had different interpretations by the editors, writers and translators of periodicals. In this study, the literary and historical method was used, with the help of which the historical-political and social-pedagogical factors described in various articles and studies were considered. We came to the conclusion that the development of periodical printing and translation literature determined the development of the Armenian language in the 19th century.

In the article, we have considered several literary embodiments of the mythologeme ofsacred marriage, when it, retaining the memory of the pretext and symbolic system, undergoes various transformations in different periods and by different authors, absorbs peculiar and significant historical-philosophical, psychological, aesthetic and ethno-cultural nuances. The legend of a young man in love swimming from shore to shore, derived from the mythologeme of the sacred marriage, the origins of which go back to the Ancient Greece, is a universal plot in the ancient mythology (the legend of Hero and Leander) with deep problems, the changes of which depend on the interaction of reality and poetry, man, nature and society, as well as on the typology of the work, the aesthetic concept and worldview of the author. Our task is to show the process of interpenetration of the national and universal realities in literature and culturethrough the history of a couple in love, to present in what way the pretext, the same initial information point made inner reality of the mythologemeinexhaustible and capaciousin time and among different peoples, over time fillingits secret language and symbolic system with new features and meaning, as well as to show changes in author's individual picture of the world. Its main function is conditioned by the content that characterizes the cosmic essence of love and sacrifice, which can “find room for” one or more symbolic storylines in an unsplit coresimultaneously. This is obvious from the content of the article. In the considered works of Marlo, Schiller, Bryusov, which are based on this legend, we tried to show the differences in the thought and creative systems of the authors, the emotional and philosophical foundations of their individuality, the moral and ethical orientation of the legend. In Tumanyan’s “Akhtamar”ballad, the story about a young man swimming from shore to shore formed the composition, preserving in its initial part the folklore elements of the story of a young man in love swimming across the sea at night, and ending with a philosophical praise of love and sacrifice.

This collection, consisting of about five units, includes: 2 manuscripts Amulets in scroll, (16-17th cc.), 1 old printed Gospel (1685-1686, Venice), 1 printed Hymnarium (1852, Constantinople), 1 printed Horologion (1872, Constantinople), which have been described in detail in the mentioned work. The units in the Grigoryans' private collection found their final destination after a long journey in the village of Vardadzor, Gegharkunik state, RA. After the end of the Russian-Turkish war (1828-1829), mass migration from Western Armenia to Eastern Armenia began (1829-30s).

The first followers of “Book of Lamentations” poem of Grigor Narekatsi manifested under the conditions of the rise of the Kingdom of Cilicia and its culture. Like their great predecessor, preserving the canonical three-level hierarchy of prayer: perfect God-sinner and man in hardship-salvation plea, hope and thanksgiving. They also absorb the originality of poetic thinking in the supremacy of the Biblical writing, and Nerses Shnorhali includes it in the verse-rhyme structure. Grigor Marashetsi compares human sins to real life, even referring to the images of everyday life, and sees the path of salvation in its devotion to the spiritual life. Grigor Tgha's research leads to philosophical perceptions about human nature, the path of salvation to its native speech-rationality. Nerses Shnorhali completes the illuminatory features of “Book of Lamentations”, combining dramatic outbursts of human duality and social relations with the reminder of the perfection of the God, where the path of salvation is the requirement to illuminate the blindness of the mind with a torch of rationality. Narekatsi associated salvation with creativity, confident in the fact of “the permanence of the book”. If Grigor Narekatsi includes deep psychological layers of approaching the Perfect throughout the structure of the poem in order to stabilize the certainty of salvation, and Grigor Marashetsi and Nerses Shnorhali mostly maintain the religious requirement with different artistic qualities, then Grigor Tgha is more drastic in his hope and desire to be close to God and for salvation. This nuance also brings a context about the freedom of Renaissance in the progression of time, as Narek's first follower is Marashetsi, then Shnorhali and then Grigor Tgha.

In the article, we have examined Gurgen Khanjyan's play "On the Bridge: Years Later" in the light of biographical and socio-political circumstances. The play is based on the biographical events of the author. The episodes from the past of the main character George directly reflect a large period of G. Khanjyan's biography. In the center of the action is the character type of a middle-aged artist, internally divided, isolated, prone to alcoholism and irregular sex life, which generally corresponds to Gurgen Khanjyan. To examine the connection between biography and literature correctly, we have referred to the critical significance of the biographical method, showing its advantages and disadvantages. To avoid a one-sided examination, we also referred to the three "totalities" identified by the cultural-historical method founder, Hippolyte Ten, in which the artistic work is located (co-authorship of the author's works, dominant currents and directions of the time, general nature of society). Based on these methods, we tried to examine the play in different chains. With the help of the interview conducted with the author, we compiled the early period of his biography, paying special attention to the episode of the suicide attempt. The latter is the core of the play, around which other events are woven. We have also referred to the socio-political circumstances of the country, because the general situation of the newly independent Armenia corresponded to the image of the author who reached the edge of the bridge. We examined the opinions expressed by the main character about painting as the manifestation of Gurgen Khanjyan's literary understanding, partially referring to the co-author of his work. We came to the conclusion that the biographical facts were generalized as much as possible in the play and became windows of the aesthetic perception of the world.
在这篇文章中，我们根据古尔根-汗吉扬的传记和社会政治环境，对他的剧本《桥上：多年以后》。 该剧根据作者的生平事迹改编。主人公乔治的往事直接反映了 G. 汗吉扬的一大段传记。剧中的中心人物是一位中年艺术家，他内心分裂、孤僻、酗酒、性生活不规律，这与古尔根-汗吉扬的性格特征基本吻合。为了正确研究传记与文学之间的联系，我们提到了传记方法的批判意义，指出了它的优点和缺点。为了避免片面的研究，我们还参考了文化历史方法创始人希波吕特-滕所确定的艺术作品所处的三个 "总体"（作者作品的共同作者、时代的主流和方向、社会的总体性质）。 基于这些方法，我们试图从不同的链条上对该剧进行研究。借助对作者的访谈，我们梳理了他早期的传记，特别关注了自杀未遂的情节。后者是该剧的核心，其他事件都围绕着它展开。我们还参考了国家的社会政治环境，因为新独立的亚美尼亚的总体情况与作者在桥边的形象相吻合。我们研究了主人公对绘画所表达的观点，这体现了古尔根-汗吉扬对文学的理解，其中部分提到了其作品的合著者。 我们得出的结论是，剧中尽可能地概括了传记事实，使其成为世界美学感知的窗口。

In the contemporary, rapidly changing world, nurturing students' soft skills remains a critical challenge for the professional education system. The future professional success of graduates hinges on the effective development of these skills. Soft skills were considered as universal practical, communication and management qualities of a person that allow them to effectively or best perform assigned tasks, ensuring the desired result. The research examines the soft skills of undergraduate journalism students in Armenia, including their attitudes and assessment of 10 outlined skills. These skills were derived from multiple international studies and interviews conducted with employers and personnel managers. The selection of soft skills was also carried out taking into account the peculiarities of the organization of media work in the conditions of modern information technologies. While preparing a professional task, a longread, we observed the impact of soft skills on students' attitudes through self-analysis, as well as the changes in their perceptions towards these skills. Multimedia extensive story (longread) is a journalistic product, the prerequisite for its creation is ideological and creative cooperation. It simultaneously involves the use of various journalistic materials (audiovisual and animation materials, photographs, graphs, maps, etc.) and genres that are harmoniously combined into one. The approach advocates the effectiveness of incorporating the development of soft skills into the higher education system through the integration of professional subjects and tasks, as it significantly boosts students' motivation. The significance of an individually tailored "road" program for the development of soft skills for each student was also emphasized, as it holds the potential to become a key factor in ensuring their future professional success.

The Armenian Apostolic Church has had a decisive role for Armenians throughout its existence in all areas of life. All the founders of Armenians spread all over the world due to fate. In the colonies, the Armenian church took upon itself the protection of its spiritual flock, the protection of Armenians, regulation of foreign state-Armenian community relations, education and enlightenment distribution and many other concerns, thanks to which it was possible to preserve Armenian over the centuries identity. The Study of Armenian Settlements by Armenian and Diaspora Armenologists has reached a fairly high level in the last fifty years and there are many on the square fundamental works. Iranian-Armenian colonies have played a huge role in Armenian spiritual and cultural life. XVII-XVIII centuries. Nor Jugha became a unique spiritual and cultural capital of the Armenians, where the main forces of the enlightened Armenian intelligentsia, representing the spiritual class, were concentrated. In this article, we will try to present a brief profile of some of the above-mentioned well-known and little-known figures, taking into account first of all the fact that they were clergy and worked in specific Iranian-Armenian dioceses. The study of the spiritual diocese, covering the territory of any Armenian settlement, makes it possible to understand and study many pressing problems arising in the Armenian diaspora. Whatever we call the Armenian communities living outside the Motherland, a village or a diaspora, the problems that concern them are the same, both in the past and in the present, and the problem of preserving Armenianness has been and remains the main issue of survival for these communities. This article is one of the first attempts to present a study of the spiritual dioceses of one separate locality, where the object is representatives of the Iranian-Armenian spiritual dioceses, and the subject is the spiritual and religious life of Iranian Armenians.e clergy and worked in specific Iranian-Armenian dioceses.
