SARKHAN OGLU KHALILOV, Agaverdi. The text sources, the genre structure and the ritual bases of the Oghuz epos. []. , 18, 85, pp. 442-449.   02--2022. ISSN 1990-8644.

The main objective of this research is to study the Oghuz epic in the oral and written traditions, the genre structure and the ritual foundations of the epic in order to reveal the details of the Oghuz epic culture. The theoretical and methodological basis of this research are the scientific and theoretical ideas of famous folklorists of oral popular literature, including the epic tradition of the people. Chronicle versions of Oghuz epic texts from the Middle Ages, "The Book of Dede Gorgud' and various texts of the Oghuz epic written as "Oghuzname ", were consulted for the analysis. The approach used in the research was the comparative-typological method, but also the characteristics of the Oghuz epic tradition were revealed on the basis of historical-comparative and theoretical-typological analysis. The scientific novelty of the research is that, although the traditional epic texts of the Oghuz reflect the structures of traditional rituals, in the work the similarities of the structure of the epic, ritual and the details of the traditional writing of epic texts are also analyzed.
