The problem of happiness in Niko Samadashvili's poetry

Abstract

The guarantee to stay forever in the memory of his descendants, ac­hieving happiness, perfect existence for Niko Samadashvili was not to achieve pragmatic goals, material security, not possession of gold and silver, but to serve the sublime human ideals, the search and capture of „words from pure gold“, the receipt of spiritual treasures. The poet, who had not a penny behind him, believed that despite the physical death, the creators rise from the dead, like the birds of the Phoenix in a fairy tale, and become the ideals of generations. It is with this faith that his unique masterpieces were created.
