Ghevond Alishan is a romantic poet. The main sources of his poetry are the history of the Armenian people, the Old and New Testaments of the Bible and Armenian folklore. 

As a historian, he praised the works of medieval Armenian historians, especially the authors of the Golden Age. The subject of his worship was Movses Khorenatsi, whose History of Armenia left a deep mark in the work of Alishan, a scientist and poet. His teachers of poetic art were Grigor Narekatsi, Nerses Shnorhali, Frick and poets of almost the whole Middle Ages, right up to the 18th century.

Of particular interest to us is the Song of the Patriarch section of the Chants collection, which will always be a modern recommendation for the Armenian people.

As it is clearly seen, Alishan, who made Christian teaching his essence, is a great supporter of patriotism, a teacher, a messenger.

According to the facts reported by Armenian historians, following the example of the best leaders who strengthened national life and statehood, with his songs he ensures with great faith the eternity of the Armenian people as part of the peoples of the world.
