Contemporary quarter-calf over marbled boards with gilt tooling and title to spine; 501 1 pp. Title page lightly toned; boards rubbed still about very good. First edition. An early ethnographic linguistic and historical study of the Caucasus by a Russian ethnographer and statesman of French origin Ivan Ivanovich Shopen 1798-1870. Shopen began gathering materials on the region as part of his military appointment in 1829 creating a record of Armenia then a new territory of the Russian Empire. In 1840 when his first study of Armenia was published Shopen was appointed a member of the statistics committee of the Ministry of the Interior. Shopen was fascinated by the Caucasus and continued his scholarly work publishing several more books on the subject. This book is his last and contains a historical and philological analysis of ancient Armenian and Georgian literary works and historical sources as well as commentary on existing theories of the etymological origins of the words Kavkaz Caucasus and Kazbek. Among the works treated are the Armenian writings of Movses Khorenatsi Movses of Kaghankatuk Kagkantovathsi and the Georgian history of King Vakhtang of Kartli. This edition of these works became foundational for the study of the region in the Russian Empire. KVK OCLC show copies at Harvard NYPL Princeton and Yale. hardcover books
