dc.description.abstractGrace Highley Knapp worked as an American missionary in the Ottoman Empire for 22 years. During her time there, she witnessed many events and wrote two books about them. In the light of her writings and other secondary sources this paper’s aim is to describe the events of the war in Van and Bitlis where many Armenian people were killed. Besides, this research paper focuses on how the missionaries, especially Grace Knapp interpreted those events and what her interpretation tells us about the missionaries’ attitudes towards the Turkish and Armenian people in general. This paper will also focus a little bit on the role of Grace Knapp as a teacher and the contributions she made to the regions where she taught.en_US
