During the post-Stalinist literary renewal in Georgia, several fine lyrical poets achieved significant popularity in the 1960s. These poets included:
- Ana Kalandadze, who had previously served as a harbinger of literary renewal during the 1940s when her earliest work was published.1
- Murman Lebanidze.1
- Mukhran Machavariani.1
These writers emerged during a period when the post-Stalinist "thaw" was occurring more slowly in Georgia than in Russia.1
