Abstract

The relationship between folklore and literature is complex and multidimensional. The topic of the research is the investigation of the medieval Georgian secular chivalrous prose romance „Amirandarejaniani“ by Mose Khoneli (XII c) that was created under the influence of the epic story on the chained demigod Amirani.
