Abstract

In our research, we compared the era, etymology, versions of lament songs, one of the unique monuments of the Kyrgyz people spiritual culture in field materials collected from people, and lament songs in literature, because the status of lamentation has been losing its meaning in modern society. The problem is considered and analyzed on the basis of ethnographic field materials and manuscripts collected from informants, as well as the traditional genre of lamentation for historical figures from the 19th to early 20th centuries. It tells about historical activities who fought for the people freedom, the Kyrgyz statehood against the Kokand policy of the Kokand Kingdom and the Russian Empire. The author's personal views and scientific analysis are also presented as separate conclusions at the end of the article.
