lyricism in the works of Karacaoglan

Abstract

The main heritage of the spiritual culture of the Kazakh and Turkic peoples, which has been formed for many centuries, is the poetry of poets and minstrels. The article examines the vivid manifestations of artistic peculiarities of the lyricism of the mood and the nature in the poetry of Karaсaoglan, the most prominent representative of the Turkic minstrelsy literature of the XVII century. It turns out that the poet's tradition of singing аbout the motherland, rivers, lakes, mountains and pastures is in harmony with the work of Kazakh poets and minstrels, and we look at the depth of historical and cultural roots between fraternal peoples. In Karaсaoglan’s poems, the theme of nature is intertwined with a nomadic way of life, and he sometimes tries to convey his love for his native land with very deep metaphors in his poems sometimes by sharing secrets, and sometimes by conversing. Historical systematization, literary analysis, historical-comparative description, collection methods were used in the research. In the article we aim to translate selected poems of Karaсaoglan from the original, to acquaint Kazakh readers with his poems written in lyricism, and to reveal the deep roots of Kazakh-Turkish literary ties.
