    Georgia’s Philosophical Landscape – Spiritual Foundations and Perspectives Anastasia Zakariadze, Irakli Brachuli ANNALS of the University of Bucharest Philosophy Series Vol. LXVI, no. 1, 2017 pp. 135 –154. GEORGIA’S PHILOSOPHICAL LANDSCAPE – SPIRITUAL FOUNDATIONS AND PERSPECTIVES ANASTASIA ZAKARIADZE 1, IRAKLI BRACHULI 2 Abstract This article discusses the main trends of Georgian philosophy: its basic principles and perspectives, the importance of the Western, especially the European cultural heritage, and the Georgian contribution to the history of ideas in a global perspective. Metaphysical questions of cognition, truth, identity, virtue and value, wisdom and power, as well as issues of ethical, social, political and aesthetic values, phenomenological, philosophical-theological and linguistic research are central to Georgian philosophy and exemplify its continuing relevance vis-à-vis the Western tradition in its broadest sense. Although philosophical ideas in Georgia rarely matured into a well-balanced, self- sufficient system, one may distinguish as original conceptions some ideas of Christian Neo-Platonism and Aletheological Realism . Keywords: Georgian philosophy, European standard of philosophizing, Christian Neo-Platonism and Aletheological Realism, phenomenological-existential research, linguistic turn, philosophical-theological studies.
