In the article are examined letters by Fr. Ghevond Alishan and letters addressed to him. In these letters are shownnot only author’s estimations of literature-historical subjects and figures, but also evaluation of his works by other artists and writers (Mikayel Nalbandian, Daniel Varuzhan, Tigran Kamsarakan, Hovhannes Tumanian, Arshag Chobanian, Matteos Mamurian and others). In some cases the speech is based on inter-textual connections that we can see between Alishan’s poetry and letters.
