Boris Baratov – is a screenwriter by profession. While he was still at school, he took a course

in photo-journalism at the USSR Union of Journalists and later graduated from the State

Institute of Cinematography in Moscow. Baratov is a screenwriter and director, with ten films

to his name. He has won a number of documentary film awards. In 1980, he joined forces

with the “Soviet Writers” and “Planet” publishing houses and is the author of the book “The

Angel of Artsakh”, about the monuments of Nagorno-Karabakh. “The Angel of Artsakh”,

which is abundantly illustrated with Baratov’s own photographs, was published in 1992 at the

height of the Karabakh war and was translated into four languages. After the collapse of the

Soviet Union, Baratov abandoned the world of documentary films to devote himself to

literature. Since then, he has published a number of books, all of which are beautifully

illustrated with his own photographs, including: “Jerusalem - a pilgrimage to the Holy Land”,

“Paradise Laid Waste. Journey to Karabakh”, “The Armenian Apostolic Church” and “The

Armeniad”. Baratov has been a keen observer of the events in Karabakh over the last twenty

years and he has published the results of his insights in his latest illustrated book “The

Chronicles of Karabakh. 1989-2009.”

“The Chronicles of Karabakh” is comprised of five sections: “The Road of Life”, “The

Angel”, “Death in Karabakh”, “Paradise Laid Waste” and “Twenty Years on”. The book

forms a unique guide in which history and contemporary life are seamlessly inter-woven.

These are travel notes of the highest quality: the simplicity of the language is supported by the

cogency of the images and the illustrations. This book will not only introduce its readers to

the historical and cultural monuments of the region, but also to real people, many of whom

are well known both within Karabakh and beyond. Within the book, the lives of most of its

leading figures are chronicled over a twenty-year period from 1989 to 2009.

Karen Mikaelian (“New Times”, Yerevan – 28th

January, 2010) writes: “The Chronicles of

Karabakh is a wonderful book, which, thanks to Boris Baratov, sets out the whole difficult

and dramatic history of Artsakh-Karabakh. It is practically a journalistic encyclopaedia.

More than 1,000 original colour illustrations, many of them never previously published, create

an overall picture of this country: the historical and cultural monuments, the natural

surroundings and - most important of all - the people. With his trusty Hasselblad at his side,

Baratov has covered the whole of Karabakh, reaching even the most inaccessible regions. He

has even managed to get into the Azokh Cave, photograph the newly excavated Tigranakert,

be present at a wedding and observe the Presidential elections.

“The illustrations are impeccable, since the camera here is in the hands of a true professional.

The whole book is like a fascinating documentary film, or a play in the way it is produced. A

hugely interesting read.”

of gospels on the sites, where they actually happened and can listen to the words of Jesus

Christ, where they were first said. This is the unbroken spiritual link between the Holy Land

and Armenia, the first country in the world to accept and declare Christianity as its state

religion.
