By Susan Barba| Revista de Prensa "Almendrón" Verified This year marked the 850th anniversary of the death of the Armenian poet and apostle Nerses Shnorhali (Nerses the Graceful). Nerses, who had the arduous duty of leading the Armenian church soon after the dissolution of Armenia’s eastern kingdoms and the dispersion of its people, rose to the challenge by becoming a musical and poetic innovator, ingeniously conceiving of, among other things, the Bible as a book of riddles written in an accessible Armenian vernacular.

New York Review of Books
The New York Review of Books is a distinguished literary magazine and publishing enterprise established in 1963. Founded by Robert B. Silvers, Barbara Epstein, A. Whitney Ellsworth, and Elizabeth Hardwick, it arose in response to a perceived decline in rigorous book reviewing. The magazine is published bimonthly and features essays, reviews, and commentary on literature, politics, science, and the arts, quickly gaining a reputation for its intellectual depth. In addition to the magazine, the New York Review Books imprint was launched in 1999 to revive out-of-print classics and curate new collections. It includes various imprints such as NYRB Classics, NYRB Collections, and NYRB Poets, covering genres from fiction and poetry to children's literature and graphic novels. The company partners with Penguin Random House Publisher Services for global distribution, aiming to preserve and promote unique literary works. With a legacy of over 60 years, it serves a diverse audience, including academics, general readers, and publishers.
