Ioane (Georgian: იოანე ბაგრატიონი) (16 May 1768 – 15 February 1830) was a Georgian prince (batonishvili), writer, lexicographer and encyclopaedist.[1]
Biography
[edit]A son of George XII, the last king of Kartli-Kakheti kingdom, eastern Georgia, by his first wife Ketevan Andronikashvili, Ioane commanded an avant-garde of a Georgian force annihilated by the Persian army at the Battle of Krtsanisi in 1795.[citation needed]
Following the battle, the kingdom entered a period of economic crisis and political anarchy. To eradicate the results of a Persian attack and to overcome the retardation of the feudal society, Prince Ioane proposed on 10 May 1799, a project of reforms of administration, army and education. This project was, however, never materialized due to the weakness of George XII and a civil strife in the country. In 1800, he commanded a Georgian cavalry in the joint Russian-Georgian forces that defeated his uncle, Alexandre Bagrationi, and the Dagestani allies at the Battle of Niakhura.[citation needed]
Upon the death of George XII, Kartl-Kakheti was incorporated into the expanding Russian Empire, and Ioane was deported to Russia. He settled in Saint Petersburg where he wrote most of his works with a didactic encyclopedic novel Kalmasoba (1817–1828) being the most important of them.[citation needed]
He is also an author of a naturalist encyclopedia (1814), a children encyclopedia (1829), a Russian-Georgian dictionary, a Georgian lexicon, and of several poems.[citation needed]
His manuscripts were discovered in 1861 by a Georgian scholar, Dimitri Bakradze, who published them in an abridged version in 1862.[citation needed]
Biography
[edit]In 1787, Prince Ioane married Ketevan (1772–1832), daughter of Prince Zurab Tsereteli, Mayor of the Palace (sakhltukhutsesi) of Imereti. They had one son:[2]
- Prince Grigol (1789–1830), who was briefly proclaimed King of Georgia during a brief 1812 revolt against Russian rule before joining the Russian military.
