Classics and the National Idea

Abstract

For almost twenty years since the independence of the Kazakh people, the focus has been on the question of the national idea and the definition of the main directions of the nation's formation as a nation. It is known that each nation has its own appearance, traditions, mentality, consciousness based on certain ideas. Although living on the basis of a unified socialist structure in the Soviet era, the ideas that determine the direction of development and national identity of the Kazakh people have found their place in literary works, plays and have not lost their original color.Classical worlds based on folklore became a school for the professional development of theatrical art, which developed from amateurism and interest in the early twentieth century. The mastery of young artists (during the early development of theatrical art), who competed in such a large-scale, wide-ranging, uniquely structured works, formed the historyof Kazakh theater for almost a century. Folklore and epic worlds, which gave them creative and spiritual strength, are valuable because they describe the sound of the times, the human spirit, and the influence of the social environment on the freedom and inevitability of the individual.
