Abstract
The aim of the research is to identify the specificity of literary interpretation of the category of memory as a component of the ideological-artistic system in the epic prose of the Balkar writer A. Teppeev. The novels of the writer ("Heavy Millstones," "Will," "Syrat Bridge") are examined in terms of the functioning of the motif of memory in them. The scientific novelty of the work lies in the fact that through the analysis of these works, methods of embodying the stated problem are revealed: creating the images of storytellers as keepers of folk memory, representing the ethno-cultural concept of stone filled with symbolic content, incorporating folklore reminiscences into the narrative, and actualizing national origins. The research notes the significant role of ethno-cultural and oral poetic traditions in the development of spiritual continuity. It defines the conceptual significance of memory (historical, ancestral, spiritual) in shaping the artistic worldview and expressing the author's position. It is emphasized that in the context of narration, memory is interpreted as one of the key factors in preserving national identity in the history of the people.
