Guliev Fakhraddin Abdulkerimoglu

The article is devoted to the study of the relationship between Turkic folk poetry and the theory of functional systems in the context of evolutionary epistemology. The epistemological significance of the theory of functional systems in the study of the evolution of man and his cognition is indicated, which makes it possible to establish such properties of evolution as the nonlinearity of the path of development, the harmonious relationship between structure and function, functional and structural hierarchy and fractality, anticipating reflection, as the basic principle of the organism's adaptation to the external world. Turkic folk poetry in its genesis and development mechanism is a poetic interpretation of the principles of the theory of functional systems, demonstrates the scientific and methodological potential of system genesis and the concept of advanced reflection. The theory of functional systems and Turkic folk poetry, complementing each other, can form a methodological basis for a holistic study of the nature of human cognition and its creativity.
