Abstract:
Oliver and Marjory Wardrops are founders of English Cartvelology. In 1888,
Oliver Wardrop published his book “Kingdom of Georgia” in London. From
cultural heritage the author tells us about literary and historical values. During
the narration he follows the chronology, accurately describes the facts and the
events, talks about the spiritual values of the Georgians. He also describes the
geographical location of Georgia, its region, tells us about the socio-political
and public life of Georgia. In the book, the author tries to accurately describe
historical facts and events. However, he focuses on the key moments of history
of Georgia. Speaking of Georgian language and literature O. Wardrop begins
with the Georgian script and devotes the most of his time to discussing Georgian literature of many centuries. The book is dedicated to James Bryce, Professor
of Civil Law at Oxford University. O. Wardrop is a good expert of Georgian
history and literature and tries to put Georgian culture in its place among the
world cultures.
