ТИПОЛОГИЯ МИФОЭПИЧЕСКИХ ЖЕНСКИХ ОБРАЗОВ (НА ПРИМЕРЕ ТВОРЧЕСТВА СОВРЕМЕННЫХ ХУДОЖНИКОВ АЛТАЯ)

Abstract

The article considers the characteristic features of the depiction of the images of a woman-mother and a woman-warrior in the visual arts on the example of the plots of Altai mythology. The paper also analyzes the specificity of the reflection of female archetypes from the standpoint of the cultural-aesthetic and folklore-historical context. On the basis of the study, conclusions were drawn about the significant role of female images in the mythological consciousness of the peoples of Altai. The widespread use of such subjects by contemporary artists of the region is due to the goal of preserving continuity and spreading traditional ethnic culture. Mytho-epic images in the interpretation of modern artists reflect the sacred meanings of the works of Altai folklore, conveying the semantic meaning of their content through artistic images.
