Gender creativity in Bashkir literature of the 21st century: current state and prospects for study

The article examines issues of gender creativity in national literatures. The relevance of the study lies in the insufficient knowledge of this problem in relation to Bashkir literature. The disclosure of this issue will allow us to study the works of female authors from a new perspective, take a closer look at the creative laboratories of female writers, the approaches and artistic techniques that they use, etc. The purpose of the article is to pose the problem of gender creativity in modern Bashkir literature, its state today and prospects for study. Despite the fact that this problem has been sufficiently studied in Russian science, in Bashkir literary criticism it has not yet been given an appropriate assessment and there is no monographic study, while issues of gender prose or poetry require it. The objectives were to consider the artistic and aesthetic uniqueness of the women's novel by T. Garipova and G. Yakupova. The analysis of the problem statement revealed that women's novel requires different approaches to study. Applying masculine methods of research to it does not allow us to express all of its artistic, ideological and aesthetic features and originalities. Because the basis of the events depicted in a woman's work is a purely female attitude to life, female logic and deep psychologism in its revelation and development in the work. Without comprehending all these features, it is impossible to understand the nature of the women's novel, its feminist principles, which are often present in such works, which in many ways differs from masculinity. Without claiming to be final, the article makes an attempt to reveal this problem using the example of the creativity of Bashkir women writers.
