The key goal of the journal is to make the latest scientific and research developments and achievements of TSU known to the public. Today’s technical progress, which results from a rapidly developing economy, needs regular updating to meet higher expectations. The basis of a technology-based economy is both applied and fundamental research. Thus, a well-developed research university contributes to further economic growth and sustainability. Since its foundation, the Ivane Javakhishvili Tbilisi State University has been creating new theories and technologies. Today this is a precondition for new companies and products to emerge in the market. Respectively, an increase in the volume of applied and technological studies and their subsequent commercialization is one of the key tasks of TSU. We will continue presenting the scientific research being carried out at TSU and periodically update you on research results, as well as scientific and statistical data.

  • Mzia Chikhradze Modernism and Identity the Paradigm of Modernism
    Mzia Chikhradze Modernism and Identity The paradigm of modernism places it in a cosmopolitan area. The desire to become integrated into a unified artistic space generates not only common, similar artistic trends in modernist art, but also severely limits the borders between the specific national derivatives within it. Coupled with the fact that “national” became a dangerous and unpopular topic after World War I, the modernism that developed in Central Europe developed as an anti-national phenomenon. Georgia enjoyed a short period of independence from 1918 to 1921. Not only Georgian modernism, but also the distinctive model of the Tbilisi avant-garde flourished during this time. It was based on a creative collaboration between different nationalities, their multinational and intercultural art. The specificity of the Tbilisi avant-garde was characterized by integrating different national characteristics into a unified artistic system. Despite the artists’ differing individual and national backgrounds, a unified artistic language was formed and this unique language determined the emerging art’s diversity and vivid imagery. The art and culture that developed in the bosom of independent Georgia generally carried a trace of Georgian national characteristics. The question arises: How organic and relevant is distinctiveness by national features in the context of modernism, which, as already mentioned, promotes cosmopolitanism. The priority of nationality should be considered as a hindering factor in terms of modernist values. However, the specifics of Georgian modernism and the Tbilisi avant-garde differed from the European ones. Namely, as Italian futurism stated and Tommaso Marinetti, its founding father, wrote in his Manifesto of Futurism: “We want to destroy museums and libraries, fight against morality, feminism, and all opportunist and utilitarian cowardice ..

  • Democratic Republic of Georgia (1918-1921) by Dr
    UDC 9 (479.22) 34 Democratic Republic of Georgia (1918-1921) by Dr. Levan Z. Urushadze (Tbilisi, Georgia) ISBN 99940-0-539-1 The Democratic Republic of Georgia (DRG. “Sakartvelos Demokratiuli Respublika” in Georgian) was the first modern establishment of a Republic of Georgia in 1918 - 1921. The DRG was established after the collapse of the Russian Tsarist Empire that began with the Russian Revolution of 1917. Its established borders were with Russia in the north, and the Mountainous Republic of the Northern Caucasus, Turkey, Armenia, and Azerbaijan in the south. It had a total land area of roughly 107,600 km2 (by comparison, the total area of today's Georgia is 69,700 km2), and a population of 2.5 million. As today, its capital was Tbilisi and its state language - Georgian. THE NATIONAL FLAG AND COAT OF ARMS OF THE DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF GEORGIA A Trans-Caucasian house of representatives convened on February 10, 1918, establishing the Trans-Caucasian Democratic Federative Republic, which existed from February, 1918 until May, 1918. The Trans-Caucasian Democratic Federative Republic was managed by the Trans-Caucasian Commissariat chaired by representatives of Georgia, Azerbaijan and Armenia. On May 26, 1918 this Federation was abolished and Georgia declared its independence. Politics In February 1917, in Tbilisi the first meeting was organised concerning the future of Georgia. The main organizer of this event was an outstanding Georgian scientist and public benefactor, Professor Mikheil (Mikhako) Tsereteli (one of the leaders of the Committee

  • Bringing Methodology to the Fore: the Anglo-Georgian Expedition to Nokalakevi Paul Everill, Nikoloz Antidze, Davit Lomitashvili, Nikoloz Murgulia
    Bringing methodology to the fore: The Anglo-Georgian Expedition to Nokalakevi Paul Everill, Nikoloz Antidze, Davit Lomitashvili, Nikoloz Murgulia Abstract The Anglo-Georgian Expedition to Nokalakevi has been working in Samegrelo, Georgia, since 2001, building on the work carried out by archaeologists from the S. Janashia Museum since 1973. The expedition has trained nearly 250 Georgian and British students in modern archaeological methodology since 2001, and over that same period Georgia has changed enormously, both politically and in its approach to cultural heritage. This paper seeks to contextualise the recent contribution of British archaeological methodology to the rich history of archaeological work in Georgia, and to consider the emergence of a dynamic cultural heritage sector within Georgia since 2004. Introduction A small village in the predominantly rural, western Georgian region of Mingrelia (Samgrelo) hosts a surprising and spectacular historic site. A fortress supposedly established by Kuji, a semi-mythical ruler of west Georgia in the vein of the British King Arthur, provides the stage for the story of an alliance with King Parnavaz of east Georgia (Iberia) and the overthrow of Hellenistic overlords. As a result Nokalakevi has become a potent political symbol of a united, independent Georgia and a backdrop to presidential campaign launches. Known as Tsikhegoji in the Mingrelian dialect, meaning Fortress/ Castle of Kuji, the Byzantine name Archaeopolis (old city) mirrors the literal meaning of the Georgian name, Nokalakevi – ruins where a town was – in suggesting that, even when the Laz and their Byzantine allies fortified the site in the 4th, 5th and 6th centuries AD, the ruins of the Hellenistic period town may have still been visible.

  • 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.

  • Kutaisi Museum Is a Century Old
    Mariam Marjanishvili Doctor of Philology, Assistant-registrar of the Fund of Modern and Latest History, Kutaisi State Historical Museum +995 595 142007 [email protected] 9 Cholokashili str., 5400, Tskaltubo, Georgia (presentation format – short presentation) Kutaisi Museum Is a Century Old Georgia, with its numerous cultural monuments, has always attracted the attention of foreigners with professional interests and private collectors who bought and took these unique items to their own countries. In this respect, we must pay attention to the document sent to the chair of the historical and ethnographic society of Georgia, Ekvtime Takaishvili on May 11, 1916: “The government wants to draw your attention to the fact that in the nearest future, Petrograd Historical Society will send Professor Schmidt from Kharkov University on his journey in Lazistan and Trabzon. As there are a lot of Georgian antiquities kept in these places, we strongly believe that you should also send a person to these places who will be allotted the task of examining, describing and, if possible, bringing anything for our museum. This person will need a document from the viceroy according to which no one will interfere with his (or their) activity and even support his scientific research… From our side, we are sending Vukol Beridze, who is eager to take on this most important and necessary responsibility” (5286/12 N34). It is clear that being under Russian empire, Georgian people had to struggle to protect and keep their cultural heritage. In order to preserve the cultural heritage, the Georgian elite who received their education in Europe and Russia, established a Caucasian Museum in Tbilisi in 1852.

If necessary, a further version will appear online on Friday 19 August. A Note on Presentation Seminar convenors made a variety choices about how to present their abstracts. Some chose to give a breakdown of the timing of individual seminars, others to give their seminar sessions specific names or subthemes, and so on. Some convenors included biographical information for speakers; others did not. Some listed papers in the order in which they will be presented; others did not, or were obliged to reorganise their seminars due to withdrawals. Rather than seeking to impose consistency – which would have required the removal of information from most seminar descriptions – the editors of this document have presented material largely as it was sent to the organisers. Some changes have been made to formatting for reasons of space; delegates’ email addresses have been removed; and we have sought to eliminate repetition of information that is available in the programme.

Originally built in the 9th century, it has been significantly remodeled, especially in the 17th century. The monastery now functions as nunnery and is one of the major pilgrimage sites in Georgia, due to its association with St. Nino, the 4th-century female evangelist of Georgians, whose relics are shrined there. Sighnaghi – is a town in Georgia’s easternmost region of Kakheti and the administrative center of the Sighnaghi district. It is one of the country’s smallest towns with the population of 3000. The town was developed in the 18th century by the king Erekle II as a refuge for the population against Lezgin and Persian attack. The name sighnaghi comes from a Turkish word for shelter - “signak”. Sighnaghi has wonderful views over surrounding hills, the Alazani valley and the Caucasus beyond Most of Erekle II’s 4km-circumference defensive wall still stands, with 23 towers and each of its six gates named after a local village the town is surrounded by. Part of the wall runs along Chavchavadze on the hilltop on the northwest side of town, where you can enter the tiny Stepan Tsminda Church inside a tower.
