This interdisciplinary volume explores various identities and their
expressions in Georgia from the early 19th century to the present.
It focuses on memory culture, the politics of history, and the
relations between imperial and national traditions. It also
addresses political, social, cultural, personal, religious, and
gender identities. Individual contributions address the imperial
scenarios of Russia's tsars visiting the Caucasus, Georgian
political romanticism, specific aspects of the feminist movement
and of pedagogical reform projects before 1917. Others discuss the
personality cult of Stalin, the role of the museum built for the
Soviet dictator in his hometown Gori, and Georgian nationalism in
the uprising of 1956. Essays about the Abkhaz independence
movement, the political role of national saints, post-Soviet
identity crises, atheist sub-cultures, and current perceptions of
citizenship take the volume into the contemporary period.
