Abstract
The article deals with the works of writers who played a big role in the rise of literature and culture in terms of postmodern concepts of the Tatar and Turkish literatures of the late 20th–early 21st centuries, and explores ideological, aesthetic and philosophical ideas and techniques reflected in them. The object of our research is the prose works of the Tatar writers F. Bayramova, Z. Hakim, N. Gimatdinova, G. Gilmanov, M. Magdiev and F. Yakhin, and the Turkish writers I. Anar, O. Pamuk and E. Shafak, who made significant contributions to the development of national culture. We interpret the philosophical views of M. Magdiev, N. Gimatdinova, G. Gilmanov and Z. Khakim, the features of their artistic thinking and their creative views in the literary and cultural context of the late 20th–early 21st centuries, the work of F. Bayramova and F. Yakhin is interpreted in terms of mythology and metaphysics. The novels of Turkish writers are studied in connection with Arabic and Oriental literature, within the framework of the the laws of post-modernist poetics.
The article explores and systematizes information and facts from various sources, related to the postmodern paradigm in Turkish literature, and attempts to create an overview of its current state. For the first time, the modern Turkish writer Elif Shafak’s work has been included in scientific circulation. Scientific research is based on the comparative-historical, typological and hermeneutical methods, on the rules and principles of the cultural-historical school.
