STUDY OF THE FIGURATIVE SYSTEM OF THE NOVEL “SULAK THE WITNESS” BY M. KHURSHILOV

Abstract

The purpose of the article is to analyze the study of the figurative system of heroes in the novel by M. Khurshilov “Sulak the Witness”. In the novel, the author raises important civic problems: about the moral norms of modern life and the education of a new person, about overcoming those conditions and circumstances of reality that hinder the movement of the people towards a better future. By social dividing characters into the classes of the rich – the proponents of evil, and the poor – those who are endowed with high dignities, M. Khurshilov shows the historical necessity of the struggle between the new and the old, the destiny of the triumph of the new. The novel also features female persons that embody the different characters and fates of mountain women before the revolution. Thanks to the use of individual words of the Avar, Arabic and Turkic languages in M. Khurshilov’s novel, the national flavor is brightly recreated.
