THE CHARACTER OF A STRANGE-EDUCATED TEACHER IN JALIL MAMMADGULUZADA'S DRAMATURGY

In this article, the path of the character of the teacher is reviewed in different stages and directions in the context of Azerbaijani literature, and the new content gained by the character in the works related to critical realist dramaturgy is examined. For the analysis, as the most obvious example, the tragicomedies "The Dead" and "Danabash Village School" from the dramaturgy of J. Mammadguluzade were taken. Presentation of the teacher's name in various modifications ("molla", "master", "sheikh", "master", "murshid", "khoja", "logman", etc.) and after being informed about their function, the images of teacher Mirza Huseyn and teacher Hasanov as inappropriate teachers of the new stage are studied and evaluated as representatives of the global problem of the time - foreign education and the regrettable situation caused by it. The issue of native language factor and teaching and learning according to the requirements of the time is justified as an important idea put forward and defended by the author. Two main problems are solved in the presentation of the image of the teacher with different modifications: First, the literary language of Azerbaijan is exposed to foreign influences from time to time, the consequences of not having education in the mother tongue, and secondly, the importance of the teacher, who changes the society by educating, to move away from the traditional-scholastic methods. The education system criticized by Jalil Mammadguluzade alienates the new generation, and the memorization of meaningless texts they do not understand prevents the development of their analytical thinking‎‎.
