Abstract

Numerous studies by Georgian and foreign scientists have been devoted to the study of the life and works of the genius Georgian romantic poet Nikoloz Baratashvili.

Despite the above, there are still unpublished materials left in our antiquities.

In the manuscript collection of the Giorgi Leonidze State Museum of Georgian Literature several memoirists' manuscripts are preserved, in which they provide us with the information heard from their ancestors or other people who knew Baratashvili. Information includes the data of Baratashvili's family environment, acquaintance circle, interests, outlook, writings...

Our report is dedicated to the presentation of two such unpublished memoires.
