Mshak (Armenian: Մշակ meaning The Toiler) was an Armenian language literary and political daily newspaper (weekly when established) published from 1872–1920[1] in Tiflis, Russian Empire (now Tbilisi, Georgia). It was founded by Grigor Artsruni.
Mshak was famous particularly for its serialization of notable Armenian literary works, such as Jalaleddin. Mshak was also known for its publication of liberal ideas, promoting the creation of a united Armenian state inside the Russia.[2] In 1921, after the Soviet invasion of Georgia, Mshak, along with other anti-Bolshevik media, was closed.[3][4]
