- Abstract
The article deals with the problem of mythopoetics in the Yakut literature, in particular, in the works of the first Yakut classical writers A.E. Kulakovsky, A.I. Sofronov, P.A. Oyunsky. Early mythology becomes a sign of one of the sources for the emerging Yakut literature and its national identity, reflecting the original mythological consciousness of the people. Mythological traditions pass into the category of written literature, as they realize its artistic functions. The first writers revealed the ideas of their works through mythopoetics, used mythopoetics in creating unique images and plots. In difficult times for the Yakut people, writers had to create allegorical works in which mythopoetics became a way of allegorical expression of the content of works. Thus, mythopoetics played a huge role in the work of the first Yakut writers. They, using mythopoetics, were able to create their major philosophical works, significant in the Yakut literature to the present day. Writers raised the problems of the survival of the people in the tragic circumstances, deepening and broadening the universal sound of their works.
