THE POETICS OF MASHHUR ZHUSUP'S POEMS OF THE EDUCATIONAL DIRECTION

Abstract

This article examines the poetics of the poems of the poet, philosopher, folklorist Mashkhur Zhusup Kopeev of the educational direction. The purpose of the article is to study the poetics of the poet's works of an educational direction in accordance with modern requirements, to popularize the educational aspect of the poet. Since the works of Mashkhur Zhusup, who made a significant contribution to Kazakh literature, were classified by genre, a number of scientific works were researched and written, the relevance of a separate consideration of works of educational orientation has not disappeared. The works of this direction were considered together with poems on religious themes, propaganda themes, and social motives. It can be noted that the works of the poet of the enlightenment direction have their own significance in literature.

The research has a scientific, practical significance. It can be used in the courses «Mashkhurtanu», literature lessons, local history of the early twentieth century and in general on the theory of literature.

Mashhur Zhusup is a poet who wrote in all areas of the genre of literature. Starting with poetry and focusing even on heavy epic works, he left behind major sagas. After all, the works of a scientist who left a twenty-volume legacy are not limited to prose.  Although several scientific works on the poet's work have been written, I still cannot say that they have been fully studied. Since the subject matter of the left heritage is very extensive, the genre character is complex, rich in artistic features, deep consonance with Eastern Turkic literature, the activity of collecting samples of oral folk art, the main idea of his works, the study of his work require many years of painstaking work. The work of this rich heir, which is the basis of our current scientific work, is a drop of great work.

The picture of the social situation of the early twentieth century formed the basis of the works of representatives of that era. Because literature is a mirror of life. The desire for freedom, liberation, the appeal of the population to reading, education, science, political and social problems have become an urgent problem for every nation. Immediately, as to rid the people of this idiocy, he adhered to the idea that reading is knowledge. I tried to «wake up"» the people. From this point of view, it should be recognized that the literature of the early twentieth century is the literature of the liberation aspiration, the «awakening» of the people. Mashkhur Zhusup did not refrain from these questions either.
