ЧЕЛОВЕК И ПРИРОДА В ТРАДИЦИОННЫХ ВОЗЗРЕНИЯХ ТЮРКО-МОНГОЛЬСКИХ НАРОДОВ ЮЖНОЙ СИБИРИ*

Целью статьи является изучение восприятие природы в традиционном мировоззрении тюркских и монгольских народов Южной Сибири. Хронологические рамки работы охватывают конец XIX – середину XX веков. Выбор таких временных границ вызван, прежде всего, состоянием базы источников по теме исследования. Основными источниками выступают исторические и этнографические материалы. Работа основывается на комплексном, системно-историческом подходе к изучению прошлого. Методика исследования опирается на историко-этнографические методы – научного описания, конкретно-исторического и реликта.

Коренные жители Южной Сибири в процессе длительного взаимодействия с окружающей средой и в результате адаптации к ней сформировали наиболее приспособленную к данным природным условиям культуру. Значительное место в ней отводится традициям, связанными с экологическими воззрениями и нормами. Основу экологического сознания народов этого региона составляла идея неразрывной связи человека со средой обитания – родиной, т.е., с тем местом, где он родился, жил и умирал. По сути, оно являлось тем пространством, в котором осуществлялась вся жизнедеятельность человека. В мышлении верующих природа воспринималась в качестве живого и чувствующего существа, что нашло отражение и в соответствующем практическом отношении к ней. В традиционном мировосприятии человек не выделен из природы. Отсутствует жесткая граница между ним и окружающим миром, который в мифологическом сознании как уже отмечалось, имел частичное или полное отождествление человеку.
