Motive of the Book in the contemporary Tatar literature
The article deals with the motif of the Teacher - Book - Fate triad in Tatar Literature. Based on the work of contemporary authors (I. Abuzyarov, Sh. Idiatullin, R. Haris, R. Valeev, R. Mukhamadiev, F. Latyfi, G. Bashirov, etc.), the analysis of the symbolism of the motif of the Book as a link in the relationship between the image of the Teacher and the Fate of the people in literature in the Tatar and Russian languages is carried out. The motif of the Book is considered in the context of the authors' attentive reference to folklore, Arab-Persian literature, medieval poetry, the oeuvre of the top authors in the history of Tatar literature (Kul Gali, Mukhammedyar, G. Tukay, M. Jalil, etc.) and key works (the epic “Idegey”, bayt “Sak-Sok”, etc.), which have become the source of works of nowadays. Contemporary authors continue the tradition of the XXth century (G. Tukai) of referring to the works of Russian authors - A.S. Pushkin, L.N. Tolstoy, N.A. Nekrasov, F.I. Tyutchev, M.Yu. Lermontov, S.A. Yesenin, V. Khlebnikov, M.I. Tsvetaeva, O.E. Mandelstam, and others, whose work traditionally influenced the development of poetic skill and determined the development of genres of Tatar literature. Modern Tatar literature is characterized by the importance, traditional for the ethnic culture, of the symbol of the Book as knowledge and literacy, a source of knowledge, treasure, etc., as well as of a religious nature: the meaning of the transreligious motif of the Holy Scriptures and the mythological concept of a human Fate, put on paper. The mythological motif of the Teacher - Book - Fate triad in the contemorary Tatar literature synthesizes traditional ideas and reveals evolutionary changes.
