THE RELATIONSHIP OF FOLK ORAL LITERATURE WITH TUYUKS

Abstract

This article analyzes the scientific and theoretical foundations of the connection of the tuyuk genre with folk oral literature. The formal and substantive features of tuyuk are studied in comparison with such genres of folk oral literature as epics, riddles, proverbs, askiyas, and songs. The inextricable connection of metaphors, hyperbole, and symbolic images with tuyuks and the traditions of folk oral literature is proven by examples. The transfer of folk simplicity and richness of content to written literature is also analyzed, and its role as a genre reflecting the national worldview is revealed.
