Summary
The publication relates about matchmaker, an exceptionally
colorful figure in Georgian literature. It represents a personage,
who plays a certain role in life, i.e. feels herself on the stage
while being in the actual reality. This image without mask is
unimaginable. The phenomenon of a matchmaker is a theatrical
image by itself and this was not left unnoticed by the Georgian
stage.
There are portrayed exceptionally interesting character
personages in literary works by I. Chavchavadze, A. Tsagareli,
D. Kldiashvili by use of the image of matchmaker. The writers
managed to transfer this colorful character in their novels and
made it a literary personage. The portrayal of the personage
is realistic and unique in each case. They appear before us as
characters of different nature, temperament, and culture. The
essence of this figure gives the authors opportunity to express
their attitude towards false, made up activities as a whole by its
generalization.
Existence of this kind themes, ideas, and personages proves
that artistic work of a writer is inconceivable in isolation; it
becomes a participant of the literary processes, although every
writer builds an artistic world in a unique way even when its
essence lies in well known themes or problems.
