Florence Nightingale was a nurse who saved many lives in the 19th
century. She was named after the city of Florence in Italy, where her
parents went after they got married in 1818. Her family was rich and
they had two homes in Britain as well as servants.
Florence was an unusual young woman for her time because she
didn’t want to go to parties and get married. She wanted to be a nurse and help people. Her family
didn’t want her to become a nurse because hospitals back then were dirty, horrible places. They
were worried about her. In 1851, Florence went to Germany and learned all about nursing. It was hard
work, but she loved it.
In 1854, lots of British soldiers went to fight in the Crimean War. Army hospitals were filled with injured
men, but there were no nurses and many men died. Florence and a team of nurses went to help.
Florence worked 20 hours a day to make the army hospital a cleaner and safer place. She brought
the men fresh food, she cleaned the hospital beds and she used clean bandages on the wounded
soldiers. Soon, fewer men were dying.
At night, Florence walked around the hospital. She talked to the injured soldiers and helped the men
to write letters to their families. She carried a lamp and the soldiers called her ‘The lady with the
lamp’.
When Florence returned to England, people called her a heroine because of her amazing work in the
Crimean War. Queen Victoria wrote her a letter to say thank you. She continued to work hard in
Britain to improve hospitals and she was given a medal called the Order of Merit. She was the first
woman to receive this honour.

An old writer who is very popular in England is travelling by train. When the ticket-inspector comes and asks him for his ticket, the old writer begins to look for it in his pockets, in his bag and suitcase but cannot find it.

” I can wait,” the ticket-inspector says, who knows the writer very well. “I can come again at the next station. “but at the next station it is just the same. The old writer can not find the ticket.

“That’s all right,” the ticket-inspector says. “That’s all right”.

“Oh, but I must find my ticket,” says the man. “I want to know where I am going to.”

Three weeks passed. The prince couldn’t sleep. He could not stop thinking about the beautiful girl at the ball.

He waited for her to return to the palace, but she did not return. He waited for her to send a letter, but no letters came.

Finally, in desperation, he gave the glass shoe to a trusted messenger and ordered him to visit every house in the kingdom.

“Find the girl who this shoe belongs to, and bring her to me!”

The messenger visited hundreds of houses. At every house, women claimed the glass shoe was theirs. But when they tried on the shoe, their feet were too big, or too wide, or too small.

Finally, the messenger arrived at Cinderella’s house. Cinderella’s stepmother opened the door.

“Of course! Of course! Come in!”

She led the messenger into the dining room, where the two stepsisters were waiting.

The oldest sister said “Thank God! That’s my shoe!” But when she tried the shoe, her foot was too wide.  

The youngest sister said “Silly sister… It’s not your shoe, it’s my shoe!” But when she tried the shoe, her foot was too small.

The stepmother said “Get out of the way, girls, it’s not your shoe. It’s MY shoe!” and tried the shoe. But her foot was too long.  

“Oh how silly!” said the stepmother. “The shoe must have shrunk in the rain…”

But the messenger was not so easily fooled. “Are there any other women in this house?” he asked.

“No one but our serving girl, and the shoe is certainly not hers… “ said the stepmother.

“Fetch her immediately. Every woman in the kingdom must try the shoe,” insisted the messenger.

When Cinderella arrived in the dining room she was wearing her usual rags, and her face was covered in dirt.
 
She put her dirty foot into the glass shoe and… amazing! It wasn’t too wide. It wasn’t too long. It fit perfectly!

In a quiet voice she said, “It’s my shoe.”

“Please come with me,” said the messenger. And before Cinderella’s stepmother and stepsisters could stop them … the messenger hurried Cinderella out the door and into a carriage.

Cinderella was taken to the palace to meet the prince. She was still wearing her dirty old dress, and her arms, legs and face were dirty. She looked at the floor because she felt so ashamed.

The prince took Cinderella’s hand.

‍“Miss, please look at me,” he requested kindly. And when she lifted her head and he saw her kind, green eyes, he knew that she was the girl he had fallen in love with at the ball.

They were married the next spring, and spent the rest of their lives laughing at each other’s jokes.

At the king’s ball, the prince was very bored.  

He felt like he had danced with every young lady in the kingdom. All of the ladies were wearing beautiful dresses, but none of the ladies were interesting. None of them understood his jokes.

The prince had just finished dancing with one of Cinderella’s stepsisters when the room suddenly fell silent.

Everybody turned to look as the most beautiful girl walked through the door.

She had long red hair and kind green eyes. Her dress was silver. Her shoes sparkled, like they were made of glass.

It was Cinderella, but nobody recognised her. Not even her stepmother and stepsisters!

The prince’s mouth dropped open. He had never seen a woman as beautiful as Cinderella.

He asked her to dance. They danced together all evening. The prince thought Cinderella was beautiful, but also kind, clever and funny. She laughed at his jokes, and he laughed at hers.

Cinderella was having such a wonderful time that she didn’t notice that it was so late. The clock began to chime midnight.

Dong… dong… dong…

«Oh no! I have to leave!» gasped Cinderella, and she ran out of the ballroom.

«Don’t go! I don’t even know your name!» shouted the prince. But Cinderella was already gone.

Cinderella fled from the palace so fast that she lost one of her glass shoes on the stairs.

When she got to the bottom of the stairs — DONG! — The clock finished chiming midnight.

Cinderella’s beautiful dress turned back into rags, and her golden carriage turned back into a pumpkin.

«Drat,» said Cinderella.

Just then, she saw the prince running towards her, holding the glass shoe she had dropped.

She did not want him to see her dressed in her dirty old rags. She felt ashamed, but there was nowhere to hide!

«Excuse me, miss,» he said, panting. «Did you see where that beautiful girl went? This is her shoe! I must find her!»

The prince didn’t recognise Cinderella without her beautiful clothes!

Cinderella shook her head. The prince ran off to continue his search. Cinderella walked all the way home.

The collection of manuscripts of Matenadaran is one of the biggest in the world. The depository contains over 17300 manuscripts, 450 thousand archive documents, 3000 ancient books. Over 14200 manuscripts kept in SRI are in Armenian, the rest ones are in foreign languages – Greek, Latin, Aramaic, Hebrew, Arabic, Persian, Old Slavonic, Ethiopic, Japanese and others. Unique examples of translation are kept here, the origins of which weren’t saved.

Matenadaran was founded by Mesrop Mashtots and Sahak Partev in 405, in royal settlement of Vagharshapat. In 1920 Matenadaran became national. In 1939 Matenadaran was replaced to Yerevan. The construction of the building by the project of Mark Grigoryan began in 1945, but in 1947-1953 it was stopped.  In 1953 the construction was started again and in 1959 it was over. In the same year Matenadaran turned into a science-research institute and placed in the newly constructed building. From 1982 till 2008 the director of Matenadaran was the academician Sen Arevshatyan. From 2008 till 2016  – doctor of philological science Hrachya Tamrazyan. 

Now the director of Matenadaran is Vahan Ter-Ghevondyan.

The working volumes of Matenadaran, provided in 1959 are not satisfactory any longer: only manuscript fund increased by 6000 books, the archives and library funds have increased unprecedentedly.  To modernize the preservation and restoration systems in the institution and to install new technologies a large science complex is being built adjacent to the main building of Matenadaran.

One day, while Cinderella was in the garden picking pumpkins, a letter arrived at the house. It was an invitation to the king’s summer ball.

Cinderella’s stepmother and stepsisters were very excited.

«The prince will be there!»
«He is so handsome!»
«He is so rich!»
«He needs a wife!»

The stepsisters spent weeks preparing for the ball. They bought new dresses, new shoes, and new handbags.

On the day of the ball, Cinderella helped them put on their dresses and do their hair.

«Oh, I have a wonderful idea!» exclaimed the youngest stepsister. «Cinderella, come to the ball with us! It will be more fun if you are there!»

«Oh, but you don’t have anything to wear…» laughed the oldest stepsister. «You can’t meet the prince wearing those dirty old clothes. What a shame. Maybe next time.”

Cinderella tried not to cry. She finished dressing her sisters and then went down to the kitchen. She sat beside the fire and sighed.

«Things will get better one day,» she told the cat.
«Meow…» the cat replied.

Just then, there was flash of light, and an old woman appeared in a corner of the kitchen.

«Who… who are you?» stammered Cinderella.

«I am your fairy godmother” said the old woman. «You are an orphan, and all orphans have a fairy godmother.»

The fairy godmother stroked the cat.

«This cat tells me how kind you are. And how you always wish for things to get better one day. Today is that day, Cinderella. You are going to the king’s ball. Fetch me a pumpkin!»

Cinderella ran into the garden and picked a big, orange pumpkin. The fairy godmother touched the pumpkin with her magic wand and it turned into a golden carriage.

«Come here, little mice!» she said to the mice in the wall. She waved her wand again, and the mice turned into six beautiful horses to pull the carriage.

«But I don’t have a dress!» said Cinderella.

«Stand still,» said the fairy godmother. She waved her wand again, and Cinderella’s dirty clothes turned into a spectacular silver dress. Two beautiful glass shoes appeared on Cinderella’s feet.

«Now go to the ball!» said the fairy godmother. «But you must be home by midnight! When the clock strikes twelve, your dress will turn back into rags, and your carriage will turn back into a pumpkin.
… Have fun!»

And with another flash of light, the fairy godmother disappeared.

«I’m going to the ball!» said Cinderella.
«Meow…» said the cat.
