The Image of Family in Handbooks of the Georgian Language and Literature

Summary/Abstract: The author aims at reconstructing the image of family emerging from handbooks ofthe Georgian language and literature. She points to the relations between next of kin (husband— wife, parents — children, daughter‑in‑law — in‑laws,grandparents — grandchildren) and persons in the family circle (family — neighbours, family — guests), as well as the functions performed by the family members (economic, socialising, guardianship). She indicates whether the handbook portrayal of family strenghtens or transgresses the existing (Georgian) stereotypical conceptions of family.
