Abstract

This article discusses the artistic trends of the 60s of the twentieth century. The aesthetic concepts of socialist realism, Romanticism, modernism and postmodernism are discussed, as well as the peculiarities of their development in Kazakh literature. The article analyzes the ideological and aesthetic concepts that opposed the socialist realism of that period. The works published during the period of post-socialist realism reflect the ways of development of modernist aesthetics. The features of new characters in literature are revealed. In addition, the article scientifically analyzes the formation of artistic systems and their methods with such features as a special spiritual connection of a person with the surrounding life of that era, personal relations between society and the individual. It is known that in the Kazakh prose of the 1970s and 80s, the well-established modernist aesthetics is closely connected with neo-mythologism. Based on this, relying on the conclusions of the world literary science, we will focus on the problem of neo-mythologism in the works of Kazakh writers. The article describes the influence of modernism and postmodernism on modern Kazakh prose and aesthetic principles of neo-mythologism, reflected in the national prose of the 70s of the twentieth century. The article makes a comparative analysis of scientific concepts of domestic scientists, as well as world research works.
