A parable is usually called a specific short edifying story that, in an allegorical form, contains a moral lesson. As a genre, the parable dates back to biblical times; it has become the oldest textbook of human morality and, at the same time, a moral “solver” of universal human problems. The book of Armenian parables absorbed the concentrated wisdom of the people, which passed the light of the specific worldview of the mountaineers through the prism of Christianity. This is the parable of “The King, the Nephew and the Naib,” which ends with a completely biblical morality. Equally instructive is the parable of “The Beggar and the Lord of the City.” However, Armenian parables do not provide ready-made imperatives like Buddhist parables, nor do they attempt to solve global, universal problems. They occupy a completely separate niche in world literature, being at the same time a fable, a fairy tale, and an instructive anecdote.
