| Description | Folklore works have a special place in the system of centuries-old culture and spiritual values of people of Uzbekistan. They attract attention with the artistic embodiment of traditions, human feelings and various religious views that have been alive since ancient times. Folklore examples include traditional archaic images that have preserved the influence of mythological, animistic, totemistic, fetishistic, shamanistic, and magical views belonging to the first layers of the development of poetic thinking, as well as household concepts related to the lifestyle of ancient ancestors of Uzbekistan. A wide road was opened during the years of independence. After all, by studying them, it becomes possible to learn the artistic interpretations of ancient mythological views in folk songs. In particular, figurative artistic expressions related to colors embedded in the content of folk songs attract special attention. For this purpose it is necessary to determine the factors that are the basis for the transformation of existing colors from non-aesthetic to aesthetic phenomena and research its historical and mythological roots, and for artistic interpretation of views related to colors in folk art, properties should be studied as a whole. In Uzbek folklore, in recent years, the interest in the study of images created based on mythological ideas has had a significant effect. In particular, there is a strong desire to study the basics of their absorption into the composition of genres, to clarify the reasons for their traditionalism. On this basis, the language of folklore works is literally the language of symbols. Understanding symbols in folklore makes it possible to reach the essence of any work. In the system of symbols in folklore, images related to colors are widespread in all peoples of the world and are distinguished by the fact that they have entered into a traditional form. This brochure is intended for folklorists, ethnographers, students and readers interested in the national values of the Uzbeks. |
