About this book
For the first time the rich historical,
cultural and ethnographic background was analyzed in such a detailed way and
interpreted in the context of aesthetic approach to the object and subject
of the research.
“… This work by Professor G. Janabayeva is
a composite interdisciplinary study combining a great number of methods,
historical data, theory of aesthetics, folklore, folk and applied arts, and
literary theory. This study of Karakalpak folk art possesses a scientific
and practical value because it illustrates the spiritual and aesthetic
experience of Karakalpak people, introduces to the theoretical and empirical
arsenal of new material aesthetics, and demonstrates its methodological
guidelines and categories.
… The value of the research by Professor
Galiya Dabylovna Janabayeva is not only in that it was the first research to
present a philosophical and aesthetic analysis of Karakalpak folk art
compositions; its value is in that the author gave the most complete
description of aesthetic consciousness of Karakalpak people in the context
of world historical and artistic processes, revealed the dialectics of the
national and the universal in popular culture…”
The author demonstrates subtle
understanding of poetic, decorative and applied art, showed mastery of
literary analysis and research abilities in the field of aesthetic
knowledge.
G.D.Janabayeva makes an important
contribution to the history of aesthetic thought, theory and history of
popular art culture, ethnic and art education; its materials can give a new
impetus to studies of folk-art traditions of different ethnic groups.
