This is the first comprehensive cultural & historical introduction to modern Georgia. It covers the country region by region, taking the form of a literary journey through the transition from Soviet Georgia to the modern independent nation state. Georgia's recorded history goes back nearly 3, 000 years. The Georgians converted to Christianity in 330 & their Bagratuni monarchy endured for over 1, 000 years. The Soviets ruled the region from 1921 but their vigorous repression did little to eradicate the strong Georgian sense of nationhood & under Gorbachev, Georgian independence became inevitable. Nasmyth's lively & topical survey charts the nation's remarkable cultural & historical journey to statehood. Having travelled extensively in the country over a period of five years, Peter Nasmyth is exceptionally qualified to write on Georgia. His authoritative, dynamic & perceptive book is based on hundreds of interviews with modern Georgians, from country priests to black marketeers. Georgia: In the Mountains of Poetry will be essential reading for anyone interested in this fascinating region as well as for students & researchers requiring an insight into life after the collapse of the old Soviet order in the richest & most dramatic of the former republics. ...
