Aphorisms

In the history of world literature there is no poetic work as wise as “A knight in the panther’s skin” by Shota Rustaveli.

Each aphorism from the poem is filled with the highest human aspirations. “A knight in the panther’s skin” itself is an undying hymn of wisdom with its artistic values.

The ideas portrayed in the aphorisms are still relevant. They teach us friendship, love of our homeland and family, loyalty. Those are the values life has no meaning without.

Publishing house Shemetsneba offers its readers a collection of aphorisms translated into four foreign languages. This is a possibility for Georgian and foreign readers to understand and appreciate philosophical wisdom of “A knight in the panther’s skin”.

The collection is dedicated to 850 years anniversary of Shota Rustaveli.
