Rustaveli’s Three Realities

Summary/Abstract: The goal of the article is to carry out a typological analysis of the artistic space of The Knight in the Panther’s Skin from the innovative angle of the chronotope and liminality theories. The reality, which is emphasised in the title, is of course, conventional due to the fundamental reason that literature itself is a major conventionality and a “play” with definite notion. Correspondingly, any kind of reality that can be discussed in a fictional text, including The Knight in the Panther’s Skin, is an intermediary between the possible and indispensable, a conditionality that takes shape within the frames of the creative talents of the author and acquires unique transformational skills within the frames of a text. In our opinion, the conditional reality represented in the text by Rustaveli is determined by three models: Artistic, historical, and transcendental. Of them, the artistic reality is a wholeness of the chronotope of the narrative and the individual chronotopes of characters.
