In Georgian.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis 1974 collection of essays by the prominent Georgian linguist and philologist Shota Dzidziguri is a significant contribution to the study of the Georgian language and its literary heritage. Published in Tbilisi by the Merani publishing house, the volume brings together a series of scholarly investigations that bridge the gap between pure linguistics and literary criticism. Dzidziguri, a master of Kartvelian studies, explores the stylistic nuances of classic Georgian texts, the evolution of the literary language, and the deep-rooted connections between linguistic structures and national poetic identity. The text provides a deep dive into the internal logic of the Georgian verb and syntax, including the arrangement of archaic forms preserved in medieval literature and their transformation into the modern vernacular.\u003cbr\u003eAcross 573 pages, Dzidziguri examines the works of major Georgian writers through a philological lens, offering unique insights into the creative workshops of masters such as Rustaveli, Guramishvili, and Vazha-Pshavela. This volume is not only an academic resource but also a cultural defense of the Georgian language’s richness and autonomy during the late Soviet period. Printed in a relatively small run of 3,000 copies, this hardcover edition reflects the high scholarly prestige associated with Merani’s academic series in the 1970s. For the researcher of Caucasian languages or the bibliophile interested in the history of Georgian intellectual thought, these essays serve as a vital primary source for understanding the mid-century synthesis of Georgian linguistic science and literary theory.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Stanza Rare Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43963139358762,"sku":"EB-306364099864","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0701\/6359\/5306\/files\/57_bdb28a8e-31dc-4b6e-b1a9-fd33222d8c2e.jpg?v=1768161728","url":"https:\/\/stanzararebooks.com\/products\/shota-dzidziguri-literary-and-linguistic-essays-1974-georgian-%e1%83%ab%e1%83%98%e1%83%ab%e1%83%98%e1%83%92%e1%83%a3%e1%83%a0%e1%83%98","provider":"Stanza Rare Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
