It was in this environment that Georgia's most venerated ruler, Queen Tamar, ascended to the throne. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe Man in the Panther's Skin belongs not just to one period in the history of one nation, however, but to all of humankind, as one of the world's great monuments of intellectual creativity. This epic poem uniquely glorifies humankind's individual essence, its God-given perfection, its ethical and social mission, and its inexhaustible capacity to fight for justice and good. The sermon delivered by the poet on the limitlessness of the latter is encapsulated in his famous words, \"Good hath overcome ill; the essence of (good) is lasting.\" It is widely recognized that Shota Rustaveli's humanist ideals predate by almost two centuries that well-known event in humankind's intellectual development known as the European Renaissance and its accompanying aesthetics. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe condensed prose retelling of the poem is intended to help spread interest in the poem among new audiences worldwide, with commentary to draw the foreign reader's attention to key passages and help them to identify and interconnect the poem's major plotlines and themes.\u003ci\u003eA Condensed Prose Retelling by Avtandil Arabuli\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eTranslated by Geoffrey Gosby\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eWith Illustrations by Hungarian painter Mihály Zichy (1827-1906)\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 150\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.32 x 8 x 5.25 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 11, 2020\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53062637584691,"sku":"9789941478604","price":32.63,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/6nKsjcMPLU9789941478604.webp?v=1771441876","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/the-man-in-the-panthers-skin-a-condensed-prose-retelling-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
