Abstract

The epos “Geser” in the form of oral and written vaults is known over a vast territory — from Tibet and Mongolia to southern Siberia and the Lower Volga. According to the researchers, the Mongolian Geseriad was established among the ancient Mongol-speaking tribes of Kukunor on the basis of the oral Tibetan version of the monument. Geser is not only the hero of the epos, his image is also associated with the mythological, religious, folklore and literary traditions. This article is devoted to the history of publication and storage of the handwritten texts of “Geser” in “clear script” in Russia and Europe, as well as the history of recording and publication of oral versions of the legend.
