Study of the yakut heroic epos olonkho based on natural science methodology
Abstract
Olonkho is one of the relic epics of the peoples of the Great Steppe, which was the “melting pot” of Eurasia, where many dozens of ethnic groups interacted, most of which disappeared forever, others were preserved as relics, finding refuge in the mountains or rafting along the Siberian rivers far to the north. It was they who preserved the great culture of the peoples of the Great Steppe, which, according to many historians, was once very high and original, especially when compared with the culture of the nomads of the 18th-19th centuries. The heroic epos of Olonkho absorbed social and ideological structures associated with temporal and ethnographic “layers” and other fundamental characteristics of the culture of the peoples of the Great Steppe. As a research methodology, approaches are used that have been tested, primarily in the natural sciences and focused on inter- and trans-disciplinary research. As a result, systemic, synergistic, cybernetic, ecological methods and related cognitive (cognitive-theoretical) models have become widespread in many humanities and social sciences. Their use in this work is based on the initial concepts and principles of these sciences. Some of them were developed directly in the humanities and social sciences, as the ego is presented in the works of L. Gumilyov, M. Bakhtin, N. Luhmann, T. Parsons, P. Ricker, and H. Foerster. The texts of Olonkho have a rational architectonics. All plots and their endless branches have logically substantiated algorithms for their development, use standard sets of tools for their interactions. Olonkho is not just a system with several subsystems. Its texts are intertwined with feedbacks of various types, contain numerous singular (special) points that generate synergistic effects, have multi-tiered control, considered from the point of view of second-order cybernetics, and correspond to the most important ecological approaches.
