Published under the auspices of the Shota Rustaveli Institute of the Georgian Academy of Sciences, this first edition represents a culmination of mid-century Soviet Georgian \"Rustvelology\" (Rustvelologia). Imedashvili meticulously analyzes the ideological, aesthetic, and philosophical underpinnings of the epic, situating Rustaveli's humanistic ideals within the cultural renaissance of the Georgian Golden Age during the reign of Queen Tamar. The author examines the poem's reflection of contemporary social realities, courtly culture, and its synthesis of Eastern and Western literary traditions. Issued in a relatively restricted academic print run of 3,000 copies, the monograph remains a fundamental reference text for scholars of medieval Caucasian literature. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Stanza Rare Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44808894152746,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0701\/6359\/5306\/files\/IMG_3916_dcc2f87c-eb06-45f5-999c-85403316b568.jpg?v=1788812386","url":"https:\/\/stanzararebooks.com\/products\/imedashvili-g-the-knight-in-the-panthers-skin-and-georgian-culture-vepkhistqaosani-da-kartuli-kultura-first-edition-1968-in-georgian","provider":"Stanza Rare Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
