The process began in the fall of 2011, when the Language and Cross-Culture component of Peace Corps Georgia launched a Georgian Country and Culture Guide project and PCVs from different regions volunteered to do research and gather information on their specific areas. After the initial information was gathered, the arduous process of merging the researched information began. Extensive editing followed and this is the end result.

In it, I study the hagiographies written about the royal female saints of Ely by the Flemish monk Goscelin of Saint-Bertin in the late eleventh century as a form of postcolonial literature and memory creation. Goscelin was a renowned writer of Anglo-Saxon saints’ lives. Through his hagiographies he not only created images of England’s Christian past that emphasized its pious, sophisticated rulers and close ties to the papacy, he engaged in political commentary and criticism.

Do Minorities Misrepresent Their Ethnicity to Avoid Discrimination?
Working Paper Series 644 (ISSN 1211-3298) Do Minorities Misrepresent Their Ethnicity to Avoid Discrimination? Nikoloz Kudashvili Philipp Lergetporer CERGE-EI Prague, October 2019 ISBN 978-80-7343-451-9 (Univerzita Karlova, Centrum pro ekonomický výzkum a doktorské studium) ISBN 978-80-7344-508-9 (Národohospodářský ústav AV ČR, v. v. i.) Do Minorities Misrepresent Their Ethnicity to Avoid Discrimination?* Nikoloz Kudashvili and Philipp Lergetporer† October 6, 2019 Abstract Discrimination against minorities is pervasive in many societies, but little is known about strategies minorities may apply to minimize discrimination. In our trust game with 758 high- school students in the country of Georgia, ethnic Georgian trustors discriminate against the ethnic Armenian minority group. We introduce an initial signaling stage to investigate Arme- nians’ willingness to hide their ethnicity to avoid expected discrimination. 43 percent of Ar- menian trustees untruthfully signal that they have a Georgian name. Signaling behavior is driven by expected transfers and non-pecuniary motives. This strategic misrepresentation of ethnicity increases Georgian trustors’ expected back transfers and eliminates their discrimi- natory behavior. Keywords: discrimination, trust game, experiment, signaling, adolescents JEL classification: C91, C93, D83, J15, D90 * We would like to thank Michal Bauer, Randall Filer, Zareh Asatryan, Vojtech Bartos, Leonardo Bursztyn, Luigi Butera, Alexander Cappelen, Glenn Dutcher, Uri Gneezy, Daniel Hamermesh, Štěpán Jurajda, Andreas Menzel, Nikolas Mittag, Fatemeh Momeni, Will Pyle, Matthias Sutter, Gega Todua, Jan Zapal and seminar par- ticipants at the Ifo Institute, CERGE-EI, the Economic Science Association meeting in Berlin, the IAREP-SABE meeting in Dublin, and the Nordic Conference on Behavioral and Experimental Economics in Kiel for very helpful comments.

Unedited Slavonic Version of the Apology on the Cross and on the Holy Icons Attributed to Patriarch Germanus of Constantinople (Cpg 8033)
Vladimir A. Baranov Novosibirsk UNEDITED SLAVONIC VERSION OF THE APOLOGY ON THE CROSS AND ON THE HOLY ICONS ATTRIBUTED TO PATRIARCH GERMANUS OF CONSTANTINOPLE (CPG 8033) The Apology on the Cross, and on the Holy and Most Blameless Icons, and against the Heretics, in the manuscript tradition attributed to Patriarch Germanus I of Constantinople (715–730)1 survived in Georgian and Old Church Slavonic translations. The Georgian translation of the eleventh cen- tury by Ephrem Mtsire2 was critically edited by Fr Michel van Esbroeck, s. j. in 1995. Fr Michel van Esbroeck took the face value of the text and attributed it to Patriarch Germanus, connecting it with the Iconophile position of the Patriarch during the Arab siege of the Byzantine capital in 717/718 (with his promotion of the miraculous powers of the Virgin’s Icon) as opposed to the promotion of miraculous powers of the Cross by the Emperor and future ini- tiator of Iconoclasm Leo III.3 The Slavonic translation of the same treatise of an unknown date is con- tained in a manuscript of the beginning of the seventeenth century, «Êíèãà 1 For the biography and literary activity of Patriarch Germanus see: L.

DESCRIPTORS *Asian Studies; *Bilingualism; Burmese; Cultural Context; *Dialects; Dialect Studies; Dravidian Languages; Language Classification; *Language Variation; Linguistic Borrowing; Multilingualism; Regional Dialects; Social Dialects; *Sociolinguistics; Tibetan IDENTIFIERS *Asia (South); *Code Switching; Indo Aryan Languages; Munda Languages; Tibeto Burman Languages ABSTRACT This work attempts to provide an overview of liuguistic diversity in South Asia and to place this diversity in a cultural context. The work tries to describe the current state of knowledge concerning socially conditioned language variation in the subcontinent. Each of five major language families contains numerous mutually intelligible and unintelligible dialects. Different dialects of a language may be required for 'written and spoken use and for different social groups. Bilingualism and multilingualism are common for communication between groups. Language choice is important for education, politics, radio and television. Chapter 2 of this book enumerates criteria used in the taxonomy of language forms, discussing a number of theories of dialect formation from the points of view of linguistic innovation and diffusion of linguistic change. Chapter 3 surveys literature on classification of South Asian languages. Chapter 4 considers South Asia as a distinct linguistic area and Chapter 5 evaluates literature on South Asian social dialects. Chapter 6 examines linguistic codes encompassing elements from more than one autonomous language.

NEW INFLUENCES ON NAMING PATTERNS IN VICTORIAN BRITAIN Amy M. Hasfjord 176 Pages This thesis examines a major shift in naming patterns that occurred in Victorian Britain, roughly between 1840 and 1900, though with roots dating back to the mid-18 th century. Until approximately 1840, most new names in England that achieved wide popularity had their origins in royal and/or religious influence. The upper middle classes changed this pattern during the Victorian era by introducing a number of new names that came from popular print culture. These names are determined based on a study collecting 10,000 men’s and 10,000 women’s names from marriage announcements in the London Times. Many of these new names were inspired by the medieval revival, and that movement is treated in detail.

Georgia was much featured in the mythology of ancient times, chroni- cled by historians and travelers who ventured to the farthest reaches of the known classical world. Stretching from the Black Sea to the Caspian, Georgia lay athwart important East–West trade routes. Through the vagaries of history, Georgia enjoyed independence one thousand years ago, only to be subsumed by the Russian Empire in the nineteenth century. More recently, the republic existed within the borders of the Soviet Union. In 1991, the Soviets’ relaxed hold on their constituent republics allowed the proud and restive Georgians to proclaim independence. With a num- ber of contending political groups, Georgia today fi nds itself in fl ux.

The Finest Wine of Georgia Map of Mukhrani Estates Georgia, and More Specifically the Caucasus Region, Is the Birthplace of Winemaking
The finest wine of georgia Map of Mukhrani Estates Georgia, and more specifically the Caucasus region, is the birthplace of winemaking. Archaelogical digs have found traces of winemaking here going back as far as the Stone Age. Rich soil, the climate, the variety of grapes as well as the traditional wine- making methods have all played a role in the production of the elegant and varied wines produced by the Mukhrani Estate. In ancient Greek times, the clever and diligent population of “Geo-rgia”, meaning the land of farmers, put these rich natural resources to good use. East Georgia, and in par- ticular the region around Mukhrani, ranked among the most important terroirs, and is even considered to be one of the cradles of winemaking in the world. The image of Dionysus, in the vicinity of the Mukhrani Estate, is a proof of the ancient art of winemaking of the region. According to Hugh Johnson in his book “History of Wine”: the Georgian name ‘gvino’ spread to the whole of Europe and the World and changed to: vino, vin, wein, wine… Château Mukhrani has become renowned over the world for its splendid palace and cellars, wonderful gardens, pristine vineyards and farms. The harmonious symbiosis between fertile soils and history, traditions and modern technologies, has created the masterpieces we call Château Mukhrani Wines. Descendant of Bagrationi Royal Family Ivane Mukhranbatoni (1812 – 1893) Lieutenant General of Russian I mperial Army. The Governor of Western Georgia. A Prominent Georgian Entrepreneur. A Founder of new traditions in Georgian Winemaking … With love for wine When Ivane Mukhranbatoni, of the Bagrationi dynasty, returned from France in 1876, where he learned about the fine art of winemaking in the Bordeaux and Champagne regions, he started producing wonderful Georgian wines on the ancestral Mukhrani Estate land.
