Quote | “If the author of “Georgics” lived and worked during Caesar’s reign and the classical period of Italian glory, then David Guramishvili lived in the country, ravaged by foreign invaders and pillaged by local brigands […] The Emperor has not shown such patronage towards him (Guramishvili, E. K.) as Octavian has for the poet of his Court, to whom he has returned his lands and always held him in high honors. (pg. 270) |
