This study provides a comparative analysis of the representation of the Terek River in Russian and Georgian literary works of the 19th century, focusing on the parable of water flow depicted as a beast, particularly a lion. The analysis reveals that the lion symbolizes the power of anti-Russian emperor. The study suggests that this symbolic meaning, representing rebellion, may have originated from Georgian cultural and political contexts of the 19th century, and later spread among Russian and Georgian poets and writers.
