Product Information

The latest title in the CEU Press Classics series presents three stories by the Georgian writer Aleksandre Qazbegi (1848-1893). Memoirs of a Shepherd poignantly chronicles the young author's seven years as a shepherd with Georgian mountaineers. Eliso is written from the perspective of a beautiful Chechen girl and offers one of the most searing accounts on record of the forced migration of their people from their homeland to Ottoman lands. Khevis Beri Gocha, the name of a Georgian village chief, is a classic tale set in the sixteenth-century about a tragic misunderstanding between a severe father and his loving son.

Author Biography
Qazbegi was one of the most prescient and gifted chroniclers of the Georgian encounter with colonial modernity. His stories offer an invaluable counterpoint to the predominantly Russian narratives that have shaped scholarly accounts of the nineteenth century Caucasus. Biographic notes on the author, a number of classic photos and an essay by the editor help place the stories in time, place and historic context.
