  • Maia Tsertsvadze Participants of the Conspiracy of 1832 As
    Maia Tsertsvadze Participants of the Conspiracy of 1832 as presented in the epistolary heritage by N. Baratashvili Abstract: A small-sized epistolary work (18 personal letters) by Nikoloz Baratashvili, a Georgian romantic poet (1817-1845) presents significant material, not only for the exploration of the author’s way of life and creative works but also for the characterisation of the socio-political life of Georgia in the first part of the 19th century. Due to his noble origin (on his mother’s side Nikoloz Baratashvili was a direct descendent of the Kartli-Kakheti branch of the Bagrationi Royal family), Nikoloz Baratashvili lived among the country’s political and cultural elite. As well as this, he had an active contact with the participants of an orginised conspiracy of the nobles of 1832 against the Russian Empire. Moreover, the participants of this event make up a major part of the people mentioned in his personal letters which gives the letters certain significance from the point of view of historiography of the conspiracy. The present research aims at collecting the biographical data regarding the participants of the conspiracy and exploring their interrelationship to the poet. Key words: Nikoloz Baratashvili, epistolary works by Nikoloz Baratashvili, the conspiracy of the year 1832, Russian Imperial Policy in the Caucasus Participants of the Conspiracy of 1832 as presented in the epistolary heritage by N. Baratashvili An important acquisition of Georgian literature - Nikoloz Baratashvili’s epistolary heritage deserves our attention from a number of points./angles. Despite its small size (only 18 of his personal letters have reached us) it presents valuable material regarding, primarily, the life and creative works of the author, his political beliefs, worldview, world perception and a spiritual biography of the poet.

  • For Beauty, Nation and God the Creation of the Georgian National Treasure
    Venezia Arti e-ISSN 2385-2720 Vol. 27 – Dicembre 2018 ISSN 0394-4298 For Beauty, Nation and God The Creation of the Georgian National Treasure Alžběta Filipová (Ivane Djavakhishvili Tbilisi State University, Georgia) Abstract The following paper traces the origins and increased interest in the cultural heritage of Georgia on behalf of the local intelligentsia in the 19th century. After describing the circumstances that may have led the new generation of Georgian scholars to a systematic exploration of ancient remains in the Caucasus and medieval ecclesiastical monuments and treasuries, the paper will focus on the main archaeologists of Christian antiquity in Georgia, Dimitri Bakradze and Ekvtime Taqaishvili. Finally, the study outlines the creation of what has been called the Georgian National Treasure. The treasure items, collected from monasteries and settlements all over Georgia and protected from robberies and impetuous art collectors, were sent into exile in 1921, shortly before the short-lived Georgian Democratic Republic’s annexation to the Soviet Union. The thirty-nine boxes, containing manuscripts, icons, precious liturgical vessels and other priceless items, were sent from Batumi to Marseille, via Istanbul, and stored in France until 1945, when Ekvtime Taqaishvili, who had taken care of and protected them over those 24 years, accompanied them back to Tbilisi.

  • Aleksandre Gabisonia Formation of the Georgian National Discourse
    Aleksandre Gabisonia Formation of the Georgian National Discourse Introduction This article will discuss the formation of nationalism in Georgia. Even though national aspirations were somewhat present in medieval Georgia, at least among the ruling elite, the paper will not examine the medieval period. The year 1918 when Georgia achieved political independence and preceding events served as the turning point. The paper will consider the main social institutions, political trends, elite strategies and social reactions in the nation- alism discourse of the period. Georgian independence declared on May 26, 1918 was short lived — it was lost in 1921 when the Bolshevik army invaded Georgia. The three years of independence and earlier events are very important to look at. The libera- tion movement of this period was the first expression of Georgian national- ism. Leader of the movement, Ilia Chavchavadze (1837-1907) — who also was the publisher and owner of the first Georgian newspaper and the national bank — is considered the father of Georgian nation and was canonized by the Georgian Church. His famous trinity “Language, Fatherland, Faith” served as the basis of independent Georgian state and remains the cornerstone of Georgian identity. The main social institutions of the period were printed media, educational system, banking sector, folklore and museum. With these social tools the elite wanted to introduced national awakening among Geor- gian population and subsequently achieve cultural and political autonomy from the Russian Empire. Despite obvious emphasis on faith and language, nationalism dis- course of this period can be regarded as civic rather than ethnic. This can be argued based on the policy towards Muslim minorities, strong efforts to reach social equality through anti-feudal policy, permanent financial sup- port for local peasants from the national bank and Western orientation of the leaders of liberation movement — it is well-known that Chavchavadze and his companions were heavily influenced by liberation movements in It- aly and Ireland.

They were fragmented for several centuries and became more intense in the XVII-XVIII centuries. Since the second half of the XVIII century when Russia’s southern border reached the Caucasus ridge, Russia’s political and ecclesiastical interests in Georgia have grown. This interest is well reflected in the agreements concluded between Russia and Georgia during this period. lthough the treaty between Kartl-Kakheti and Russia in 1783 did not address the issue of the autocephaly of the Georgian Church, Article 8 of the treaty severely restricted its rights. The A Archbishop of the centuries-old Autocephalous Church of Georgia was to occupy the eighth place in the Russian Holy Synod after the Peter I, Bishop of the Tobolsk Eparchy. When signing the treaty, the King of Russia Georgian ambassadors (Garsevan Chavchavadze and Ioane (1682-1721) Mukhranbatoni) protested this article since the Georgian and Emperor (1721-1725) Archbishop was to be ranked fifth among the first-tier Russian bishops according to the previously agreed draft version of the agreement.

  • The Publication: Specifics of Development of Civil Society In
    Ilia State University On the Specifics of the Development of Civil Society in Georgia In: Modernization in Georgia. Theories, Discourses and Realities. Editor Giga Zedania. Bern, Berlin etc.: Peter Lang, 2018, S.229-270 Oliver Reisner, Jean Monnet Professor Tbilisi, 2018 This publication has been produced with the assistance of the European Union. Its contents are the sole responsibility of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of the European Union. 9 On the Specifics of the Development of Civil Society in Georgia Oliver Reisner This chapter analyses the development of civil society in Georgia from the Tsarist Empire in the nineteenth century until today. I will discuss its specific function and role, configured during its modernization path. These differ significantly from Western ones. After one successful but almost forgotten precedent of adapting Marxism to the needs of local communities in the beginning of the twentieth century under Georgian Menshevik social democracy, today still requires an indigenization based on citizenship and less on ethno-cultural traits inherited from Soviet nationality policy in order to depoliticize the nation. Keywords: civil society – citizenship –nation – participation – democracy. The Concept of “Civil Society” Civil society means, first of all, the defence of the individual from arbitrariness of the state (John Locke), support for the rule of law and the balance of powers (Charles Montesquieu), educating citizens and recruiting political elites (Alexis de Tocqueville), and finally institutionalizing in the public sphere a medium of democratic self- reflexivity, in which critical discussion of matters of general interest is institutionally guaranteed (Habermas, 1989). It is constituted in a nonstate sphere of action by a multiplicity of plural, voluntarily founded associations, which are articulating and autonomously organizing their specific material and normative interests.

  • A Concise History of the Holy Apostolic Church of Georgia
    Metropolitian Ananias (Japaridze) A Concise History of the Holy Apostolic Church of Georgia Metropolitian Ananias (Japaridze) Editors: Priest Konstantine Giorgadze English translation: Maia Akhvlediani Publishers Ivane Gorgidze “A Concise History of the Holy Apostolic Church of Georgia” is Metropolitan Ananias‟ account of the labour and ministry which the Church of Georgia carried out throughout many centuries while serving the purpose of the spiritual salvation of the nation. The Holy Bible is first referred to in this book as a historical source of the Church of Georgia. The four-volume work comprises the three periods of her history, extending from the first century to the twentieth inclusive. The present edition represents its abridged version. 1 Foreword Beloved children of Christ, let us praise the Lord our God with our words and deeds for He brought us into existence, He created heavens and earth, mankind, nations and peoples. We read in the Holy Scripture that in the beginning people were one nation and spoke one language – “Now the whole earth was one language and one speech” (Genesis 11.1). However, after having destroyed the Tower of Babel, the Lord‟s will was to have many nations with many languages on earth. So it was that primordial nations were formed and upon each of them was bestowed their own part of the earth called “homeland” or “Motherland”. People had an obligation to take care of it, defend it from enemies. First kingdoms were formed and people were compatriots to each other; they were also neighbours and friends. Fidelity and self-sacrifice to the people‟s good were the two virtues, well- pleasing to the Lord for they were fruit of love, and God is love as the Holy Scripture proclaims: “Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one‟s life for his friends” (John 15.13).
