Теория литературных родов и жанров в романтизме в казахской литературе

Abstract

Kazakh literature has come a long way, undergoing transformations lasting more than a century. The territory on which the works were created goes far beyond the boundaries of the modern territory of Kazakhstan, including the era of the Kazakh Soviet Socialist Republic, the times of the Russian Empire, and the Kazakh Khanate. In this regard, we can say that Kazakh literature has absorbed the features of many cultures and traditions. In the 15th - 18th centuries, the romanticism of Kazakh literature was based on situational and everyday models, as a result of which it acquired the features of realism; the approximation of its characteristics to Western models began relatively recently. At the beginning of the formation of literature, the creators concentrated on epics, but when, having adopted the features of Western and Russian culture, they began to master new forms, it became obvious that Kazakh culture is very susceptible to further transformations and stages, and unusual "steppe" romanticism can be easily expressed in other genres of literature.
