The knight in the panther's skin /Summary/

                                                       The knight in the panther's skin

                                                                         Summary

Every nation invests all its creative genius in one person who subsequently becomes the self-portrait of the given nation.  Shakespeare is such a genius in the case with England, Goethe with Germany, Dante Alighieri with Italy, and Pushkin with Russia.  In Georgia, we see ShotaRustaveli. It is amazing that the era of literary renaissance in England started in the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries, while tracing its roots to the sixteenth century in Germany, the fourteenth century in Italy, and the nineteenth century in Russia.  As for Georgia, believe it or not, the Georgian literary renaissance emerged in the twelfth century!

This epic poem has nurtured the Georgian people since the twelfth century, and I believe that the world has yet to rediscover this marvelous treasury of wisdom and love!

            Those interested and intrigued can become acquainted with this masterpiece in the English language.  The first translation of the poem was completed in 1912 by Marjory Wardrop, followed by the translations by VeneraUrushadze in 1970, R. H. Stevenson in 1977, and others.
