    Abstract

    In the article is studied the theme of Georgian and Georgia in Bakhtiyar Vahabzade’s creativity. It is indicated that the creativity of the poet is rich in terms of genre, form, type, and style and different. The harmony of human and nature, the idea of historicity and modernity is reflected in his poetry, publicism, prose, scenario, and dramaturgy. It is these social motives that determine the Georgian theme in the poet’s work. Therefore, the poet is interested not only in the nature and beauties of Georgia, but also in the fate of his compatriots living here. One of the first nations to be martyred in the national liberation struggle was the Georgian people. In his poem “Two Headed Eagle” he depicted Russia’s “oppression” against peoples and nations, and “creation of conflict” between countries. Another factor of B.Vahabzade’s creativity was to follow the creativity of Azerbaijani poets lived in Georgia and highly evaluated them in terms of artistic aesthetic. It is known that Georgian poets and writers dedicated several poems and stories to Azerbaijan. This process also occurred in Azerbaijani literature: S.Vurgun, S.Rustam, R.Rza, M.Dilbazi, O.Sarivelli, M.Araz, A.Babayev and others glorified the Georgia. This process was different in B.Vahabzade’s creativity. His creativity included works that were ideologically compatible with Georgian literature; and he wrote the article by drawing attention to the creativity of Azerbaijani poets that lived and created here. At the same time, his poems were translated into Georgian.
