Georgian Monks on Mount Athos: Two Eleventh-Century Lives of the Hegoumenoi of Iviron by Tamar Grdzelidze (2009)

This is the first English translation of the Georgian Lives of Euthymios the Hagiorite (955-1028) – along with John the Iberian – and George the Hagiorite (1009-1065). Commemorated as saints of the Orthodox Church, Euthymios and George were distinguished hegoumenoi on Mount Athos during the eleventh century who greatly influenced both the Church of Georgia and Georgian culture.
