LITERATURE OF THE PEOPLES OF DAGESTAN OF THE PRE-OCTOBER PERIOD IN THE METHODOLOGICAL CONCEPTS OF ACADEMICIAN G. G. GAMZATOV. THE CIVILIZATIONAL ASPECT

Abstract

The methodological foundations of the scientific research of the famous Dagestan scholar – literary critic, academician G. G. Gamzatov are considered. It is noted that the cultural and aesthetic experience of mountaineers accumulated by generations is translated in the works of G. G. Gamzatov into theoretically based concepts that affect the processes of development of the multinational artistic system of Dagestan in the pre-October period. These concepts, based on the cyclical paradigms of humanitarian knowledge, build a sequence of semantic dominants that have ensured not only the national identity, but also the spiritual community of the Dagestan peoples.
