Analyzing Kazakh folk tales in a psychoanalytic approach

Folk stories of the Kazakhs are one of the richest works of folklore literature in the world, reflecting their national identity. All the characteristics of the Kazakhs can be found in folk stories told through poetry and prose. Also, folk stories reflect the life, social life, aspirations, dreams and tragedies of the Kazakh people. The purpose of our study is to conduct a new analysis by the method of psychoanalysis. For this, it is necessary to theoretically consider Kazakh folk stories. For this reason, in our study, a new analysis will be made from the position of psychoanalytic theory, little studied in the Kazakh literature, by considering "irreplaceable facts" that reflect not only Kazakh history and culture, but also the psychology, lifestyle and dreams of all Turkic peoples. Characters and plots, the gallery of Heroes in folk stories, will be analyzed in the context of monomythology and psychoanalytic theory. The social life of people will be reflected through the psychology of the characters in the stories. Folk stories will be considered from the point of view of archetypal analysis and the concept of a national code. It is predicted that such a study will contribute to the study of Kazakh folk stories. In the dissertation, folk stories are considered within four main groups: Love, Religious, Heroic and Epic.
