Presentation of the stamp took place yesterday, October 27, at the Ivane Javakhishvili State University during a conference entitled “Dante\u2019s works, part of the world’s cultural heritage” organized by the Tblisi chapter of the Dante Alighieri Society, in collaboration with the Department of Romance Philology of the University. During the conference, a bilingual Italian-Georgian edition of Dante\u2019s work “Vita Nuova” was also presented. Both initiatives are the outcome of a project of collaboration between the Italian Embassy in Tbilisi and various local institutions: the Ministry of Culture, Sport and Youth of Georgia, the Culture Commission of Georgia and the Georgian Post Office.\u00a0<\/p>\n

During the Week of the Italian Language in the World, other initiatives took place in Georgia, organized with the support of the Italian Embassy. Among them, on October 25, the National Rustaveli Theater presented the ballet \u201cBeatrice\u201d, inspired by the \u201cDivine Comedy\u201d with music by the noted Italian composer Dario Marianelli, winner of the Oscar and Golden Globe. The show will also go on stage in Batumi the second largest city in Georgia, in a short time. \u00a0<\/p>\n

Also, on October 21, the movie \u201cInferno\u201d was shown at the Silk Factory Art Gallery.
