A. Krivoshapkin's novel The Coast of Destiny: an ethnographic сontext

Abstract

The article considers the writing of People’s writer of Yakutia Andrey Krivoshapkin on the example of his novel The Coast of Destiny. This work is of great interest for literary studies, the ethnological sketches of the novel have not been studied enough. The article gives a new interpretation of ethnographic realities from the life of the Evens. Using concrete examples from the text of the novel The Coast of Destiny, the qualitative characteristics of the phenomena of ethnoculture – the realities of ethnography and folklore of the Evens are shown. Andrey Krivoshapkin demonstrates a complex of rituals, customs and taboos associated with them on artistic material.

The novel presents an artistic and aesthetic understanding of the cultural and historical heritage of the Evens (Lamuts) - the material and spiritual culture of the ethnic group. The article actualizes the problem of preserving and popularizing knowledge about traditional and modern culture, language, folklore and ethnography of one of the most ancient peoples of the North, Siberia and the Far East. Value transformations under the influence of globalization make the study of Andrey Krivoshapkin's novel The Coast of Destiny even more relevant. An analysis of the work of the Even poet, prose writer, publicist, who made a great contribution to the development of Even literature, is also important and necessary in the practice of school and university education.
