Abstract

Every nation can live as a full-fledged nation when it does not lose its own cultural code. Modern Literary studies has given a new impetus to the scientific study of the nature of the national code in works of art. The fate of the nation has always been an eternal theme that continues from time immemorial and this is reflected in the literature. In this regard, literary criticism emphasizes the importance of considering the place and role of Kazakh literature in the world literature in terms of national values. Our main goal is to analyze the idea of becoming an eternal nation in our literary heritage, calling for the improvement of the national spirit and national consciousness, national traditions and language, the preservation of our culture to make the object of scientific and theoretical analysis with new methods of research.The article deals with the manifestations of literary archetypes in ancient Turkic monuments, Zhyrau poetry. It is proved that the motives of “search of the promised land”, “elder sage”, “wanderer” as the oldest literary archetypes are transformed as a result of social division and change of public consciousness. Comparing the ancient religious and literary monuments of Kultegin, Tonikok with the poetry of Asan Kaigi, Bukhar Zhyrau, the features of the archetype are revealed with the help of a comprehensive analysis.
