Abstract
The article examines the image of a sage in Tatar oral folk art and Tatar literature. The image is considered in several aspects: according to the genre originality and the figurative system. In Tatar folk tales, it appears as a wise old father, a wise girl and a soldier; in dastans – a narrator-zhyrau; in the works of ancient literature, we find the images of the sage Khozyr Ilyas, in modern prose – the Grandfather of Light. The problem of the hero is one of the most important in the system of literary and theoretical categories. Although there is a well-established idea of the main features characterizing this concept, its diversity and ambiguity leave room for controversy. The article, based on the analysis of critical works of literary and literary-journalistic genres, reveals the inconsistency of judgments, indicating the reasons for the objective and subjective approaches of the authors of these works and various views in the artistic and aesthetic interpretations of the contemporary authors’ works.
