Abstract:

This session contains reports on issues of current interest in Caucasian studies. Beynen proposes a semantic analysis of the Georgian verbal infix -am-, found, e.g. in vsvam, "I drink," also called present/future stem formant (P/FSF). Grigalashvili discusses the rites found in the Georgian "Martyrdom of St Shushanik" and their relation to other Orthodox rites. Amiridze reports on the use of the Georgian preverb da- in accommodating English items as roots of Georgian synthetic verbs. Baramidze analyses the geolinguistic, geopolitical and philosophical foundations of the Eurasian theory on the basis of a comparative and analytical approach and proposes that in North Caucasian language-speakers the estimating-valuing attitude towards the mother tongue is weakening
