SOCIAL-HISTORICAL, LITERARY-CULTURAL NEEDS OF AZERBAIJANI LITERATURE 1960-80S
1960-80s are the period of national-spiritual self-awareness and independence, modernism of Azerbaijani literature. The article analyzes the socio-historical, literary and cultural needs of characterizing this period as a new stage of Azerbaijani literature. After Stalin's exposure, as in other Soviet republics, the political and ideological environment in Azerbaijan softened, and a new spirit, form, and content changed in literature and art. The themes of repression and the South, in general, have become more relevant to other issues that serve national self-consciousness. Literature has moved from the subject of production and economy to the description and explanation of the inner world of man. The life of a simple and "little man" came to the fore.
