Abstract

The study examines one of the important periods in the formation of the Tatar literary language - the 19th - the beginning of the 20th centuries. A detailed picture of the functioning and interaction of language variants is given, the important role of fiction in its formation is determined. The significance of the process of contacting languages, the dialogue of cultures, the coexistence of religious ideas, figurative and symbolic codes is shown on the example of monuments of literature. The special place of Arabic-Persian borrowings in the development of the literary language is emphasized. The question is raised about the intellectual status of the recipient, his potential ability to understand related Turkic languages and functional styles of the Tatar language. The great contribution of the national humanitarian intelligentsia to the enrichment of the literary language is shown, the phenomenon of the Tatar enlightenment is indirectly considered. The paramount importance of literary translation in the functional expansion of the styles of the Tatar language and the strengthening of its aesthetic component is indicated. Special attention is paid to the newspaper “Tarzhiman”.
