  • Church – Consolidating the Georgian Regions
    Church – Consolidating the Georgian Regions Metropolitan Ananya Japaridze Saint Ilia the Righteous said from the very establishment of the holy Church of Georgia, that it presented a strong power consolidating the whole population of the state. It was not locked within the narrow ethnic borders but was the belonging of different ethnos residing in the state. According to Holy Writ, it never differentiated Hellenist from Jew, Georgian from non-Georgian, as its flocks were children of Georgia with mutual responsibility to the country and citizenship. Even Saint Nino, founder of the Georgian Church, came from Kapadokia. Saint of Georgian Church, martyr Razhden, and Saint Evstati Mtskheteli were Persian. Famous 12 fathers struggling against fire-worship and Monophysitism were Assyrian (Syrian). Neopyth Urbani Episcope was Arabian. The famous Saint Abo Tbileli came from Arabia too. The Saint Queen Shushanik was Armenian etc. The above list shows that Georgian church unified all citizens of the country in spite of their ethnic origin. At the same time, the Georgian church always used to create a united cultural space. The Georgian Church was consolidating regions and different ethnic groups of Georgia. The Georgian language was the key factor of Georgian Christian culture. Initially, Georgian language and based on it Georgian Christian culture embraced whole Georgia, all its regions. Divine services, all church acts, in mountains and lowlands from the Black Sea to Armenia and Albania were implemented only in Georgian language. Georgian language and Georgian culture dominated all over the Georgian territory. And just this differentiates old Georgia from the present one. It’s evident that the main flocks of Georgian Church were Georgians of West, South and East Georgia.

Georgia was much featured in the mythology of ancient times, chroni- cled by historians and travelers who ventured to the farthest reaches of the known classical world. Stretching from the Black Sea to the Caspian, Georgia lay athwart important East–West trade routes. Through the vagaries of history, Georgia enjoyed independence one thousand years ago, only to be subsumed by the Russian Empire in the nineteenth century. More recently, the republic existed within the borders of the Soviet Union. In 1991, the Soviets’ relaxed hold on their constituent republics allowed the proud and restive Georgians to proclaim independence. With a num- ber of contending political groups, Georgia today fi nds itself in fl ux.

  • The Relations of the Catholic Church with Georgian Christianity in Modern History
    Journal of Eastern Christian Studies 67(3-4), 347-373. doi: 10.2143/JECS.67.3.3149539 © 2015 by Journal of Eastern Christian Studies. All rights reserved. THE RELATIONS OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH WITH GEORGIAN CHRISTIANITY IN MODERN HISTORY JOHN FLANNERY THE ORIGINS OF CHRISTIANITY IN GEORGIA The historical origins of Christianity in Georgia are ancient. Tradition has St. Andrew and St. Matthias the Canaanite both preaching the Gospel in Western Georgia, while other sources posit the presence in Eastern Georgia of Bartholomew and Thaddeus, also claimed as the evangelisers of neigh- bouring Armenia. The prevalence of Christianity in eastern Georgia is dif- ficult to quantify before the fourth century, with the conversion of Mirian III (r. 284-361) and his family, following which Christianity came under state protection. His conversion by Saint Nino is generally dated to around 337,1 and the event is recorded in the Latin text of Rufinus’ Ecclesiastical History (c. 402), while the oldest existing record in Georgian dates from the 7th c. Conversion of Kartli, and a much more elaborate version appears in the 9th or 10th c. Life of Nino. The conversion of the west Georgian kingdom was more gradual, with Christianity being officially embraced in 523.2 Early Christianity in the cosmopolitan pre-modern Caucasus, situated at the crossroads between Europe and Asia, was characterised by tremendous diversity, inclusiveness and a degree of syncretism. Under the ecclesiastical jurisdiction of the Apostolic See of Antioch from the second decade of the 1 The conversion of the West Georgian kingdom was more gradual, with Christianity being officially embraced in 523.

  • Creating an »Orthodox« Past: Georgian Hagiography and the Construction of a Denominational Identity Emma Loosley Leeming*
    Creating an »Orthodox« Past: Georgian Hagiography and the Construction of a Denominational Identity Emma Loosley Leeming* In the early Middle Ages, Georgia consisted of two kingdoms. The western part was called Egrisi by the local inhabitants, and Lazica by the Byzantines and to the east of the Likhi range of mountains was Kartli, known as Iberia to outsiders. Egrisi was ruled from Constantino- ple for much of this period with vassal overlords, but Kartli was harder to control and its leaders often played the Byzantine and Persian Empires off against each other in order to maintain some autonomy over their territories. Until the early seventh century Kartli was under the religious jurisdiction of the Armenian Catholicos and officially non-Chalcedonian (miaphysite), but at the Council of Dvin in 610 the Kartvelians rejected Armenian ecclesias- tical authority and declared an autocephalous Georgian Church. This new Church joined the Chalcedonian fold and accepted the authority of the patriarch of Constantinople. One of the defining events of Georgian ecclesiastical history is the arrival of the Thirteen (As)Syrian Fathers in Kartli in the sixth century. The vitae of these shadowy figures and their origins and doctrinal beliefs are still rigorously disputed today. The information given (or deliberately obscured) in eighth and ninth century accounts of the (As)Syrian Fathers is cru- cial for our understanding of how Kartvelian confessional identity evolved and was conflated with ideas of Kartvelian nationhood. This paper will explore the construction of Kartvelian national identity through the lens of ecclesiastical history and examine how past events, in particular the narrative of the (As)Syrian Fathers, were deliberately obfuscated in the quest to create an »Orthodox‹ past.

  • Zaal Andronikashvili the Glory of Feebleness the Martyrological
    Zaal Andronikashvili The Glory of Feebleness The Martyrological Paradigm in Georgian Political Theology For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. (Matthew 6:13) Thine, O Lord is the greatness, and the power, and the glory, and the victory, and the majesty: for all that is in the heaven and in the earth is thine; thine is the kingdom, O Lord, and thou art exalted as head above all. (1 Chronicles 29:11) A monument to Saint Georgia was erected on Freedom Square in Tbilisi on 23 November 2006. The unveiling of this monument on Tbilisi’s central square, which differing times bore the names Paskevich-Yerevanskij1 and Lenin Square, among others, was a symbolic step. In modern political mythology Saint George, who replaced Paskevich and Lenin (the Russian and Soviet imperial representatives), is not only Georgia’s guardian saint but an allegory of Georgia who, in this mythological narrative, fights against the dragon personifying the imperial legacy and the enemy of freedom. How- ever, the symbolism of the monument does not celebrate a victory over evil, but makes a promise of a future victory. In the fight against evil he brings an eschatological idea to modern political contexts and vice versa (he proj- ects modern political contexts onto eschatology). In spite of the secular in- terpretation, Saint George’s monument represents a variation on the basic paradigm of Georgian political theology. In my article I shall speak on this very paradigm. Georgian historiography has recently become interested in political theology.2 The comparative political theology of eastern Christendom is al- most unresearched.3 For this reason I am unable in the present article to dis- cuss this issue exhaustively.
