Texte intégral
1This is a useful overview of the place Venice occupied in the activities of the New Julfa Armenian merchants in the 17th and 18th centuries. The author demonstrates that as Venice lost its preeminence as the leading European entrepôt for raw silk in the early 17th century, the Julfans began to cast a wider net, traveling to places like Marseilles, London, and Amsterdam. However, they never gave up their connection with Venice, where they had been firmly rooted as of the 16th century and which played an important role in the revival of Armenian culture in the 18h century.
