The article deals with the concept of the author and personality in the literary work based on the novels The last duty by A. Nurpeyisov and Prisoner of the Glory prison, It’s too early to sing, There is a paradise on Earth by K. Zhienbai. Currently, the study of the person and related issues in literature is not limited to the genre, the work structure or the ideological content, but it is considered from the point of view of the author’s and the person’s literary concept. According to scientists, the literary concept of personality is one of the main principles of the literary analysis. In this model of analysis, it is possible to recognize all the heroes created by the writer. If the author’s concept expresses the writer’s assessment of the life phenomena, his philosophical view on the integrity of the world, the literary concept of the person determines the ways of its realization. A. Nurpeyisov (1924-2022) is an outstanding figure of Kazakh literature. His novel-dialogue The last duty is a significant literary work of the independence period. The whole novel is based on the stream of consciousness. The literary position of the author is assigned to the image of Zhadiger. Self-sacrifice and responsibility, boundless love for the native land are its main characteristics. The spiritual integrity of the author is visible by images of Zhadiger and Elaman (“Blood and Sweat” trilogy). Neither Elaman nor Zhadiger could tolerate extreme abuse. The main principles of the literary concept of personality such as: the hero’s desire for selfawareness in a difficult moment, his own attitude to life and strong bonds, the place of a person in society and human values are analyzed. K. Zhienbai’s novels describing the
environmental consequences of Aral and Baikonur region are his continuous works. Themes, time and places of events are common. Although the professions and services of the heroes are different, they are close people, natives of the same region. Each of them deeply feels the consequences of ecology. But they do not leave their homeland and migrate to other regions. His heroes are living in that region and intend to develop their native land. They are innovative people who have felt the breath of modern times. In the author’s description, several contrasting life scenes intersect in one region. Aral is a region of human environmental suffering, Baikonur is a world spaceport; Korkyt ata mausoleum is a sacred place of Turkiс people. The writer creatively develops this
contrast in his works.
