Abstract: (En) Subsequently, I will briefly outline the process of integration and assimilation of Armenians in Transylvania. In regard to this, I will also examine the development (and change) of their image, and I will shortly present Ihe question of the Armenian self-image and identity. The reason why I sketch only the Hungarian image of Armenians is partly clue to scarcity of the sources, and partly because the reference group for Armenians were Hungarians. It was Hungarians to whom Armenians compared themselves and with whom they integrated; thus, also the Armenian self-image has developed to certain extent as an answer to the Hungarian picture of this group.
(Ro) Studiul doreşte să prezinte procesele de asimilare şi aspiraţiile de integrare, emiţând aprecieri importante asupra imaginii armenilor, precum şi asupra schimbării identităţii armenilor. Autoarea arată că armenii ardeleni, după ce au emigrat în ultimul sfert al secolului 17, s-au integrat relativ uşor în societatea ardeleană, la care au contribuit în mare măsură prin aderarea la Biserica Catolică. Din studiu reiese că în urma integrării reuşite la sfârşitul secolului 19, se ajunge la o asimilare totală, în urma căreia asimilarea culturală şi structurală au fost urmate de identificarea totală, în urma căreia armenii ardeleni şi-au asumat definitiv identitatea maghiară.
