| Popis | The story of the South Caucasus is the story of the bridge between Europe and Asia. Armenia and Georgia - two of the oldest known Christian cultures - and their shared medieval past have flourished over the centuries, set in a breathtaking landscape between the Caspian and Black Seas. These are some of the most remarkable cultures in human history: at the crossroads of the Eastern Christian and Iranian worlds, from at least the seventh to the thirteenth century, artistic expressions were born here that have nothing provincial about them and often surpass the production of old Europe in quality and diversity. This richness finds its roots in the divided and at the same time shared Armenian and Georgian history, for throughout the medieval period the two cultures did not cease to interact. However, it is only justified to speak of the region as a 'cohesive' whole if this coherence is based on ontological diversity: Armenian and Georgian culture and art are completely unique, as are the two languages and their respective alphabets. This book is an attempt to transcribe into the language of images what has been described above: the extraordinary dialogue between nature and culture, the great cultural diversity and at the same time the symbiosis between the different historical realities of the Middle Ages. |
