Dedicated to the chief Šabdan Baatır, the Codex occupies an illuminating position in a network of oral and written genres that encompassed epic poetry and genealogy, panegyric and steppe oral historiography; that echoed oral performance and aspired to print publishing. The Codex’s fresh articulation of concepts of Kirghiz self-identification was incipiently national, yet remained couched in traditional forms. The Codex thus bridges the interval, often glossed over in cultural histories, between a supposedly archaic state of oral epic tradition and the “afterlife” of epics in modern ethno-nationalist projects.Brill's Inner Asian library ;v. 28.Kyrgyz literatureHistory and criticismEpic literature, KyrgyzHistory and criticismHistoriographyKyrgyzstanKyrgyzstanHistorySourcesKyrgyz literatureHistory and criticism.Epic literature, KyrgyzHistory and criticism.Historiography894.347894/.347Prior Daniel1513119MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910807030403321The Šabdan Baatir Codex3935607UNINA
