This 1978 edition of Shota Rustaveli’s immortal epic, "The Knight in the Panther's Skin," represents a vital link in the history of Georgian-Azerbaijani literary relations. Published by the "Elm" press of the Academy of Sciences of the Azerbaijani SSR, the text provides a deep dive into the internal logic of the Rustavelian world through a carefully curated Azerbaijani rendition, including the arrangement of the poem’s philosophical and romantic stanzas prepared by the prominent scholar and public figure Dilara Aliyeva. As a vital primary source, this volume documents the enduring cultural synthesis between the two neighboring nations, specifically within the academic framework of the Nizami Museum of Azerbaijani Literature. This particular copy is of exceptional value as it bears an original autograph and dedication from Dilara Aliyeva, dated December 8, 1978, shortly after the book's release. Aliyeva was a renowned specialist in Georgian-Azerbaijani literary ties, making her personal inscription a significant historical artifact.  The hardcover edition, printed in a standard format, is a significant bibliographical rarity for collectors of Rustaveliana, Caucasian studies specialists, and those interested in the scholarly legacy of Dilara Aliyeva.
