Leonidze's verse "Qivchaghi's appointment" is an individual interpretation of the folk ballad, where qivchaghi is a real enemy and oppressor. The associative influence of the folk "Qivchaghi" was so strong that the enamoured knight of the "Qivchaghi's appointment" has become as an enemy and oppressor in the readers subconscious. The words Qivchaghi, barbarian, Chingiz – Khan, Tamerlan and other used in Leonidze’s creative works are accepted as the symbols of devotion, novelty, courage and vital energy. It is supposed that the knight of "Qivchaghi's appointment" was presented by the author as a symbol of vital energy. We think, that such reflection of Qivchaghi's disposition will make more interesting the research of the lyrical verses.
