KORIUN
Koriun (about 380-450-s AD) was the student and collaborator of Mesrop Mashtots, the inventor of the Armenian alphabet. After the study in the first Armenian school founded by Mashtots, with other students he was sent to the provinces of Armenia to teach and to preach. In 424, together with some of his friends he was sent to Constantinople to study foreign languages and the art of translation. Upon his return, a participant of the activities of Mashtots, Koriun was engaged in translation and teaching work. After his teacher’s death he thought of writing the history of the origin of the Armenian alphabet, and the man on whom that divine grace had been bestowed. Between 443-449 AD, he wrote “The Life of Mashtots” which is the primary and authentic source about Mesrop Mashtots’ life and activity that came to us. His writing became the first original historical work written in Armenian characters and dealing in fact with the very invention of those letters and their inventor. The kernel of the book is the invention of the Armenian letters, the foundation of the Armenian written language and the Armenian school, and the origin of the Armenian literature. Koriun divides the life story of Mashtots into two periods – secular and religious. He speaks little of Mashtots as a layman. The author cites many passages from the Bible as he deals with Mashtots’ and his students’ activities developed after the invention of the alphabet when they started “translating, writing and teaching”. Koriun also focuses on the activity of Catholicos Sahak Partev, the collaborator of Mashtots, who was a great help and encouragement in the invention of the Armenian characters. The book contains significant knowledge about the inner political and public life of Armenia. In the end of his writing the author offers dates of Mashtots’ life and the invention of the letters; this is the first chronology in the Armenian literature. Koriun’s “The Life of Mashtots” was translated into Latin, Russian, German, French and English.
