THE IMAGE OF WATER IN THE POETRY OF ANTON UERZHAA

Abstract

The work examines the image of water in the poetry of the outstanding poet Anton Uerzhaa. The poetry of the author Anton Uerzhaa is permeated with deep love and devotion to the ancient Tuvan land, to its nature, especially transparent water sources, many-sided lakes and rivers. In the proposed work, we stopped at the analysis of the cycle of poems by Anton Uerzhaa with a pronounced image of water and water bodies. In the poems of Anton Uerzhaa, many words are used that express the varieties of water resources such as үer ‘flood’, khulbek ‘reservoir, pond’, bulak ‘stream, spring’, eerem ‘whirlpool’. There are many words denoting individual parts of water bodies and water transport, etc. such as chalgyg ‘wave’, balar ‘tina, silt’, heme ‘boat’, kөvүrүg ‘bridge’, sai ‘river stones’, ‘pebbles’, etc. These words in the poetic world of the talented author are rethought, conveying human relationships, feelings, etc.
