THE REFLECTION OF THE ETHNICAL TERMS “CAUCASUS” AND “CAUCASIAN” IN GEORGIAN LITERATURE Irma Ratiani Iv. Javakhishvili Tbilisi State University, Shota Rustaveli Intitute of Georgian Literature I. Chavchavadze av. 1, Tbilisi, Georgia Telephone (+995 32)99 53 00 E-mail: [email protected] Received on 11 April, 2011; accepted on 27 December, 2012 Abstract. Contemporary Georgian Literature offers interesting interpretations of the terms “Caucasus” and “Caucasian,” but the discussion about this problem was started much earlier, in the beginning of 19th century, when the livening up of the ethnical concepts of “Caucasus” and “Caucasian” was witnessed in Georgian literature and public thinking. The historical shift of Georgia into the new epoch of colonialism, which can alternatively be called “The Epoch of Russian Colonialism”, caused the accentuation of the above mentioned concepts. Russia used the privilege of the orthodox country, confronted Georgians with non- Christian people of the Caucasus and deprived them from their political independence. The reaction of Georgians towards Russian colonialism was characterized by double standards, which were clearly reflected in Georgian literature of the period of Romanticism, first of all, in relation to the interpretation of the concepts “Caucasus” and “Caucasian.” The genuine goal of the colonial policy and their social strategies were pointed out clearly in the 1850–60s. The Georgians’ response to colonialism was modified and the previous ambivalent status was replaced by the radical confrontation: the main goal became the idea of the peaceful Caucasus on the condition of protection of national identities.
