CREATIVE INDIVIDUALITY OF SALIKH GURTUYEV

An understanding of the creative evolution of Balkarian poet S. Gurtuev and the main stage changes in his thematic orientation and style-forming models are presented in the article. Attention is focused mainly on the worldview and civic manifestations of the author's artistic and critical consciousness, his aesthetic program. The early 1960s was an historical moment of the new options for interpreting the traditional Soviet literature's concepts. That time Gurtuev's socialist concepts and ideologemes acquired specific object content and emotiveness. The integration of the lyrical experience into the ethno-identification component of consciousness has became a feature of the poet's poetic reflection. The feeling of the homeland, the understanding of the unity with the people is also expressed in the artist's figurative system. The patriotic modality of his work is actualized in the lyrical reflection of the 20th century's events (the Great Patriotic War, the expulsion of the Balkar people (1944-1957); an anxiety for traditional ethnically-forming normals and imperatives that are not sufficiently stable in the realities of our time sounds more and more clearly at the final stages. In this regard, the appeal to the "natural symbols" in the national identity's search is manifested in the works with a nostalgic component (Tbilisian and Hungarian cycles, poems about Zelena Gur, dedication to the mother, etc.). Particular attention in the article is paid to the models of deciphering the key concepts of Gurtuev's poetics ("yellow horseman", "tree", "mountain") and their organic connection with the specifics of the ethical and aesthetic ideas of the Karachays and Balkars is revealed.
