Abstract

When talking about the literary and cultural traditions of the Tskhinvali region, we cannot ignore the personality of Davit Kasradze. Since the beginning of the 20th century, as soon as he appeared in the arena, he made a remarkable contribution to the rapprochement of the Georgian and Ossetian people and the development of cultural values. Davit Kasradze was born in 1885 in the village of Avnevi (a village in Georgia. The village is mentioned in the description of Ioane Bagrationi of 1794-1799. It has been occupied by Russia since 2008) in the Prone valley. He solidified an honorable place among the thinking people of Tskhinvali region. After graduating from Gori Theological School, he continues his studies at Tbilisi Art School. The received education does not satisfy the future writer and scientist. Because of this, at the beginning of the first decade of the new century, he studied philosophy and literature at the Faculty of Philosophy and Literature at the University of Paris. While studying in Paris, Davit Kasradze befriends Mikheil Javakhishvili, and the period of his stay in Brussels is the basis of cordial friendship with Kondrate Tatarashvili and Tedo Sakhokia. In 1919, his "History of Georgia" was published in Russian language, in which the libraries and repositories of Paris and Geneva contributed to a large extent. D. Kasradze's friendship with Geronti Kikodze is also connected to Brussels, who had moved from Geneva to Brussels at that time, where the room and library left by G. Kikodze were used by D. Kasradze during his years living in Brussels. His creative work began in journals: "Jejili", "Nakaduli". The brilliant writer of the Georgian language urged some of his contemporaries to deeply master the richest treasure of their native language. A number of journalistic texts by Davit Kasradze, imbued with deep patriotic feelings, in which the writer tries to awaken national feelings and national self-respect in the progressive population of our country. To achieve the goal, the author often checks the opinions of Georgian classics and relentlessly exposes a number of ill-wishers who intend to change Georgian national consciousness and violate cultural traditions.
