My personal library consists mainly of historical
literature, containing such disciplines as Prehistory, Archaeology, Early,
Classical and Early Medieval History of Caucasia, Anatolia, the Middle East,
Mediterranean and Eastern Europe, New History, Anthropology, Ethnology,
Polities and Geopolities; the rest belongs to Sociology, Philology, Folklore,
Linguistics, Arts, etc. Some books of my collection are of the
19th and even of the 18th centuries.
Most of the books are in Georgian and Russian, but microfilms and xerocopies
mainly in English (besides monographs there are copies of selected articles
from special journals, covering the period of 50-70 years), as well as in
German, Russian, Georgian and French. Some books and copies are in Persian,
Arabic, Turkish, Italian, Romanian, Bulgarian, Spanish, Polish, Czech,
Slovakian, Greek, Armenian, Azerbaijanian, Ukrainian, etc.
I am looking for such a place for my
collection where I could share it with other scholars and students, focusing
their interests on various aspects of Caucasian (and Middle Eastern) Prehistory
and History.
Due to a large amount of microfilms
(extremely favourable condition for quick scanning) it would be possible to
create a data-bank for the Caucasilogical Studies in a short time.
