  Although Joane Petrizi’s work received increasing attention in the course of time and Georgian thinkers always emphasized his intellectual heritage, a thorough-going scholarly treatment of Petrizi’s works only really began in the 20th century. Without a doubt, the most important stage in Petrizi research is represented by the publication of a scholarly edition of Petrizi’s philosophical works. The edition began in 1937 with the publication of the second volume of Petrizi’s Proclus work—the Intertpretation of the “Elementatio theologica” of Proclus. This volume was edited by Sh. Nutsubidze and S. Kaukhchishvili; it includes a comprehensive and valuable study of Petrizi’s philosophy in which the teaching of the Georgian philosopher is viewed as reflected by his contemporaries and analysed with reference to Byzantine and Georgian medieval thought.
