Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The article discusses the problem of the author's position in the novel "Ūiyq" by the writer S. Dossanov. The current themes of the novel comprehensively illustrate the life of the Kazakh people at the beginning of the twentieth century, the spiritual revolution, the events of historical difficult periods and the state of youth striving for something new. The definition of the author's position as a creative person, along with his unique originality, is one of the most pressing problems of literary criticism today. The flow of characters and events that occur in a work of art, the author's imagination, thought, cognition, and artistic decision in transmitting the reality of life are analyzed. The article defines the author's efforts to create an artistic image of famous figures of Alash such as Akhmet Baitursynuly, Alikhan Bokeikhanuly, Mirzhakyp Dulatov and other historical figures, as well as a description of historical periods, storyline, poetic appeal. The image of Asylkhan (Asylzhan) in the work is embodied as an innovative person, adapted to the times. He is not only educated, but also astute, he believes in the future of his country, and he is one of those who lay the bricks of this bright future. The white-headed eagle, which the writer took as the basis for the events of the entire novel, is taken as a symbolic image and observes with watchful eyes the joys and sorrows, good and evil of the native land. It can be seen that the thoughts expressed by the white-headed eagle are the high position and naive faith of the author, who is worried about the future of the country. The work as a whole is analyzed from the structural-poetic, and content view.
