The publisher's foreword frames the volume explicitly within this commemorative context, presenting five decades of Georgian poetry under Soviet rule as a chronicle of the republic's \"social and national rebirth.\" The anthology assembles work by multiple generations of twentieth-century Georgian poets in Russian translation, each represented with a brief introductory portrait illustration. This format gives the book something of the character of a portrait gallery of modern Georgian letters. The volume was a substantial production undertaking for its time: a large-format cloth binding with gilt and colored stamping, illustrated endpapers, individually commissioned poet portraits, and an accompanying pictorial dust jacket, issued in a modest run of 3,000 copies. As both a literary anthology and an artifact of Soviet Georgian cultural self-presentation at a symbolic anniversary moment, it holds interest for collectors of twentieth-century Georgian literature in translation and of Soviet-era anniversary and jubilee publishing.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Stanza Rare Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44585395257386,"sku":null,"price":80.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0701\/6359\/5306\/files\/IMG_8579_a4a96039-3644-4870-b07b-93114fc693c5.jpg?v=1784208898","url":"https:\/\/stanzararebooks.com\/products\/anthology-of-georgian-soviet-poetry-antologiya-gruzinskoy-sovetskoy-poezii-tbilisi-merani-1971-in-russian","provider":"Stanza Rare Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
