THE ARCHETYPE OF «HOME» AND «HOMELESSNESS» IN MODERN KAZAKH PROSE

Abstract

The article analyzes the manysidedness of the concept of «archetype» in works of art. This concept was introduced into scientific phrases and grounded by the Swiss psychoanalyst Carl Jung. C. Jung, considers the unconscious and divides it into two types: beyond the will of man, temptations, as an archetype of personality (individual unconscious) and the unconscious, common to humanity or a certain nation, ethnos, tribe, as a collective unconscious.

The purpose of the article is to provide an analysis of the functioning of the archetypes «Home» and «Homelessness» based on the material of works of modern Kazakh prose, which are multi-aspect and include many problems: the history of the country, the family, the formation of the Kazakh spiritual character, personality, the search for happiness, etc. In addition, the archetypes «Home» and «Homelessness» represent the socio-cultural space of human life, in which society is reflected as a mirror.

The methodological basis of the research was the ideas of C.G. Jung and other scientists-psychoanalysts, literary critics, aestheticians, philosophers who laid the foundations of the concept of the archetype.

This study analyzed the manifestation of the archetype «house» in literature and art as an artistic means of expression based on images and motifs preserved to this day in the mythology and folklore of the Kazakh people, traditions and prejudices, in the general collective unconscious.The article can be used as an additional educational material in preparation for lectures and seminars on the discipline «Modern Kazakh literature» in higher educational institutions.
