Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study investigates the formation of the multi ethno-national societies of the Caucasus region in the early modern and modern periods. Special attention is paid to the family of translators and other middlemen who were shuttling between their home base and the imperial centers, associating with not only their co-religionist minorities, but acting with various communities of the imperial societies, thus bypassing cross-cultural communications. Self-recognition or identity formation especially within the questions of Orientalism was also investigated. This study reveals their ambiguous standings towards the imperial entities in the Caucasus facing transformation to the modern age.
