Summary/Abstract: For two hundred years after writing “The Fate of Kartli” by Nikoloz Baratashvili, the discussion about this writing never stopped in our literary studies. It was never considered, that a reason for contradiction generated against the backdrop of the Treaty of Georgievsk (a source of inspiration) is closed, because in fact, the treaty had been cancelled after Act of Independence (1918) was adopted by the National Council of Georgia, whereby Independence of the Democratic Republic of Georgia was declared. However, today we have to study the huge amount of scientific literature, which has been accumulated about this writing since the second half of the 19th century. The special literature devoted to the poet is quite rich and we can read three basic views, three different interpretations of “The Fate of Kartli” in it.
