These books include 95 Georgian manuscripts, the great majority of which were written here or transferred here from elsewhere during the period from the end of the tenth to the middle of the twelfth century, the era, that is, of the sainted founders of our Monastery and their near successors. As is clear from the colophons of some of the manuscripts of our collection, the "ascetic-philological school" of our Monastery was founded by St. John, the first abbot of the renovated Clementos Monastery. He took care that many sacred patristic and hagiographical works be translated from Greek into Georgian and be copied. He sent his son and successor St. Euthymios to Constantinople while still a child to learn Greek. The latter, with the translations over which he laboured and the model he shaped for the work of translation, distinguished himself as the most important Georgian scholar and was justly surnamed "New Chrysostom". St. John founded here an important scriptorium, inviting trained and learned scribes from the Greek-speaking lands as well as Georgia. Some of them copied out the Greek originals, so that our Monastery would have them in its possession, while others copied the translations into Georgian that were done here, so that they could be distributed to the Georgian monks and faithful throughout the world.
