A great Georgian poet of the 12th century. He is believed to have been born around 1160-1170. He is the author of the epic poem "The Hero in the Tiger's Skin" (c. 1180-1210), an immortal masterpiece of Georgian literature. The poem features three heroes who help Nestan, a woman who rebels against her forced marriage, and who fight bravely and self-sacrificially for justice and happiness. What is new about this poem is the portrayal of the inner psychology of the three heroes. It contains both Indian and Arabic elements, and also has something in common with European chivalry tales. It was published in 1712 under the supervision of Bakhtang IV. There are as many as 50 Georgian editions.
