Abstract

This research paper investigates the rich tapestry of Grigol Uznadze’s poem about rural life, employing a comparative and interdisciplinary approach to unravel its multifaceted dimensions. Drawing on insights from scholars in various fields, including social studies, cultural studies, religious studies, nature symbolism, and comparative literature, the paper explores the themes, symbolism, and cultural significance embedded within the poem. By examining the poem within the contexts of Rural vs. Urban Life, Labor and Agriculture, Nature and Symbolism, Traditional Practices, Sufi Mysticism, and Comparative Analysis, we gain a comprehensive understanding of the poem’s implications. The paper highlights the interconnectedness of these perspectives, underscoring the value of interdisciplinary analysis in uncovering the complexities of rural life representations across different cultures and historical periods. Through a nuanced examination of the poem, this research contributes to a broader understanding of the cultural diversity and universal themes associated with rural life.
