УРБАНИСТІК ӘДЕБИЕТ ЖӘНЕ ОНЫҢ ЗЕРТТЕЛУІ

Abstract

In Kazakh literary studies, the images of the city and the steppe have so far been studied in separate scientific articles, but it was only in a relatively recent decade that the image of the city began to be studied. After all, it is known that both Kazakh prose and poetry until the last century described rural life, not urban, and there are reasons for this. The city as a separate image or urban literature as a separate branch of literature still requires fundamental study. The research article examines the concepts and studies developed by foreign scientists in this area as prerequisites for the study of urban literature in Kazakh literary studies. Based on the method of comparative research, we were guided by the ongoing searches for the urban text and the image of the city. In particular, new conclusions were drawn based on the works of R. Barth, N. Schmidt, Y. Marinina and other scientists.
