  • 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.

  • The Ossets in Georgia
    ANZOR TOTADZE THE OSSETS IN GEORGIA: MYTH AND REALITY Publishing House “Universal” Tbilisi 2008 The present book highlights the anatomy of the Georgian-Ossetian conflict and on the basis of analysis of Georgian and foreign literary sources and official demographic data it discusses the issues of Ossets migration to Georgia in the XVII-XIX centuries and of the aboriginal population of Tskhinvali. It also displays the absurd consideration of the Ossetian dilettante scholars on “South Ossetia” joining Russia in 1774, the unprecedented facts of distorting the history of Georgia and their efforts to misappropriate the Georgian cultural heritage. By the offcial statistical data living standard of Ossets in Georgia is the highest in the former Soviet Union. editor: Academician Mariam Lordkipanidze review: Professor Anzor Sakhvadze Professor Vazha Gurgenidze © A. Totadze, 2008 Publishing House “UNIVERSAL” 19, I. Chavchavadze Ave., 0179, Tbilisi,Georgia : 22 36 09, 8(99) 17 22 30, E-mail: [email protected] ISBN 99940-61-90-9 2 ANATOMY OF THE CONFLICT “I would like to be unbiased and clear up whether there were some hasty, senseless activities of Ossets, who intensified the contradictions through provocation. I would also like to say such events took place then. I mean declaration of sovereignty, which was fully orientated to Moscow with the prospect of uniting South and North Ossetia in the future. Aspirations of South Ossetians to join their Northern tribesmen can be understood from the human viewpoint. However, from the geopolitical viewpoint it is a mistake. The main Caucasus Ridge is a natural border between Georgia and Ossetia and any efforts of removing this border will cause permanent conflicting situation between Georgians and Ossets.

  • Language Policy and National Identity in Georgia
    Language Policy and National Identity in Georgia A thesis submitted for the degree of PhD to Queen Mary University of London 2011 Rusudan Amirejibi-Mullen Linguistics Abstract Language has been long recognised as a powerful marker of national identity, as has its role in transforming multi-ethnic societies into unified nations. Such is the case of multi-ethnic and multilingual Georgia, where language has today become a crucial factor in interethnic relations and in the Georgian nation-building process. This thesis sheds light on the nature of kartveloba (Georgianness) by examining Georgian language policy over the entire history of the nation. Despite the country’s long-standing civilisation and its established culture, Georgian statehood began to decline from the second half of the thirteenth century, until the country was eventually incorporated into the Russian empire at the beginning of the nineteenth century. Since then, there have been several attempts to instigate a ‘national revival’: 1) the cultural/linguistic movement of the nineteenth century, 2) the struggle to build a nation-state in 1918-1921, 3) the national liberation movement during the Soviet period (1921-1991), and 4) nation- state building in the post-Soviet period. All of these periods display common features with regard to language policy. 2 After investigating language policy and identity developments in the pre- modern period, this thesis examines Georgia under Russian rule (both Tsarist and Soviet), which made the country vulnerable to ethnic conflicts, and tries to explain the violent outcomes. The thesis goes on to examine public debate of language and minority issues, as well as efforts to elaborate inclusive language and ethnic policies in contemporary Georgia.

  • Apolon Tabuashvili the IMPORT of GUN BARRELS and THEIR PRICE
    284 Apolon Tabuashvili МАИАСК Вып. 9. 2017 УДК 930 DOI 10.24411/2219-8857-2017-00010 Apolon Tabuashvili THE IMPORT OF GUN BARRELS AND THEIR PRICE IN GEORGIA th th * IN 17 — 18 CC. Fire arms were manufactured in Georgia from 17th — 18th cc. Because of this the fire arms were widely spread among the population. The Georgians actively used guns in the 17th and especially 18th cc. Furthermore, the production from Tbilisi spread to the neighbouring countries. Flintlock guns consisted of three major details: barrel, flintlock mechanism, and stock. The sources confirm that the flintlock mechanisms and stocks were produced locally. As to the gun barrels, the situation was quite different. Imported gun barrels from Crimea were generally used to produce fire arms in Tbilisi and the rest of Georgia. It was because of Crimean gun barrels that the most commonly used term for a gun in Georgia was “Kirimi”/”Khirimi”. The Ethnology and Modern History Guns Fund of the Georgian National Museum (Simon Janashia Museum of Georgia) also hosts hundreds of guns with imported Crimean gun barrels produced in the 18th c. Tbilisi. The import of gun barrels was well documented in the Georgian customs tax tariff, which enables the scholars to establish guns’ prices in those times. Key words: Georgia, Crimea, fire arm, Crimean barrel, Tbilisi, prices. About the author: Apolon Tabuashvili, Doctor of History, Associate Professor, Ivane Javakhishvili Tbilisi State University.

  • Branches of Bagrationi Royal House (Pdf
    Additional information №7 Offshoot Branches of the Bagrationi Royal House in the 16th-18th centuries From the second half of the 15th century onwards Georgia witnessed various dynastic confrontations and internal political battles. While the Royal throne became weaker, the struggle between the Georgian princes to inherit their respective domains became even stronger. The dissolution of the kingdom and the subsequent separa- tion of estates led to the formation of offshoot branches within the Royal House of the Bagrationis. This political instability eventually led to the emergence of the Kartli, the Kakheti and the Imereti Bagrationi Royal dynasties. The negative economic and social situation which prevailed in the kingdoms of Kartli, Kakheti and Imereti, led to the establishment of several offshoot royal branches. Unfortunately, “provincial kings” played a regressive role which, apart from other reasons, facilitated the dissolution of the united Kingdom of Georgia. (Provincial Kings in XIV-XV Century Georgia by D. Ninidze, Tbilisi, 1995). After the collapse of the united Kingdom of Georgia various representatives of the Batonishvili from the Bagrationi family, who were present in independent kingdoms, started struggling for their rights. The main reason for this tense situation in the Royal House was complicated. Close and distant relatives of the Royal family, par- ticularly the offshoot branches of the Bagrationis, made claim for their respective rights and legal status. Although the rules of succession to the Royal throne were frequently violated, their representatives succeeded to obtain cer- tain legitimate rights. This resulted in the emergence of a new branch, besides numerous others of the Bagrationis. They made their political and economic claims, while the conditions for obtaining their relevant statuses no longer existed.
