Abstract
In David Guramishvili’s work love is considered not only as human passion, but mainly as a way to get closer to God. Therefore, it is special phenomenon for the poet. In this regard, it’s very interesting antique, Christian and renaissance views on love and comparison of David Guramishvili’s worldview to them. Love in “Davitiani” is shown, as the expression of divine affection. Therefore object of love - woman - is shown in two different ways – a woman - as a mediator between man and God and a woman as expression of a deity. This two ideas stand on an antique and orthodox viewpoints. Also similar concepts are shown in literature of middle ages, renaissance and baroque. These examples show interesting similarities of poet’s worldview to them. Analysis of “Zubovka” make it clear, that meeting with loved one allegorically means Christ and expresses lyrical hero’s wish to unite with divine love. For the author divine love is expressed metaphorically by “being in love with the light. “To become lover of the light”…- writes poet. Here he means directly love of God, which is considered love towards “sun’s sun”. Lyrical hero’s “love towards sun” strengthens the idea, that story in “Zubovka” is not only depicting loving relationship, but firstly it is considered hymn of love of man and god. David Guramishvili considers marriage as the pinnacle of love. This idea is based on poet’s parable-allegorical writing principles. The poem “happy summer” in the final part of “Davitiani” preaches finishing boy-girl love relationship with marriage, the poem is also considered the hymn of divine marriage. The title of poem means happiness and renewal of reconciliation of man with god; the conditional title of the poem is also interesting (Thorned shepherd). According to poem, thorn is symbol of fulfilment of divine will. Main ideal of the poem – finalization of boy-girl love with marriage, is perceived as allegory of sanctified man returning to god with the way of love. In this regard changing the faces of lyrical characters and understanding of their thoughts are very important, which is dictated by author’s self reflection and establishment of personal “me”. In “Davitiani” is shown the world model by “David Guramishvili, that is rebuilt by divine order. This is completely founded on “new testament”- Christian preachment – reconciled man with god by the power of love and draws similarity with the works of predecessor (Rustaveli) and heir (Vazha-Pshavela) alike.
