The editor of e-SAS is Dzovinar Derderian, Ph.D. The Editorial Board is composed of: Anna Aleksanyan (Ph.D. Candidate, Clark University), Jesse Arlen (Ph.D. Candidate, University of California, Los Angeles), Varak Ketsemanian (Ph.D. Candidate, Princeton University), Nora Lessersohn (Ph.D. Student, University College London), Erin Piñon (Ph.D. Candidate, Princeton University), Ararat Sekeryan (Ph.D. Student, Columbia University), Christopher Sheklian, Ph.D. (Zohrab Information Center, NY) and Anoush Suni, Ph.D. (University of Michigan, Ann Arbor). The advisor is Bedross Der Matossian (University of Nebraska, Lincoln). Dr. Dzovinar Derderian, who was invited to the position of editor, commented, “I’m thrilled about our e-SAS initiative and the team of editors who have graciously agreed to work on this new project. The different disciplinary training that our members of the Editorial Board have received, will, I hope, provide an opportunity to emphasize our interdisciplinary approach to Armenian Studies. I foresee e-SAS to become a great platform through which interested parties can learn about the different types of scholarship produced on Armenian-related subjects.”
The initiative e-SAS is part of the larger projects of the Society for Armenian Studies aimed at disseminating knowledge on Armenian Studies to the academic community and the general audience. “We are excited about this project,” said Society for Armenian Studies president Bedross Der Matossian. “This is the first time that SAS is launching such an initiative. I have no doubt that this project will receive great attention and become a source of knowledge on issues pertaining to Armenian Studies.”
