The independence of each country determines the unique values of that nation. Independence is reflected in the politics, social status and spirituality of the people. From time immemorial, the Kazakh people through the art of words conveyed in their minds the idea of freedom, patriotism and independence. The article analyzes the national and cultural nature of art of speech in the period of independence on the basis of te[ts. The purpose is to determine the value of a literary work of the new era in the nature of free thought, national cognition. It is known that in the period of growing integration between the sciences, the nature of speech, philosophical and mental peculiarities prevailed.The ancient heritage of the people – from folklore to the desire for independence – is highly respected. Folklore is a special art. Folklore, going beyond philology, includes such disciplines as ethnography, ethnology, music, psychology. Folklore is a phenomenon of artistic creation, it arose and developed on the basis of everyday life and in connection with many other manifestations of worldview syncretism. Therefore, folklore develops in connection with the history, culture and life of the people and testifies to the worldview of a person. The concept of tradition is widely used in both folklore and literature. But they are different from each other. Folklore is a part of everyday phenomena, the totality of which is studied by ethnography; fiction is part of social and cultural phenomena. Together, these two concepts determine the characteristics of the art of speech of each nation, the artistic essence, the national idea and structural-figurative features. This feature of the art of the word constitutes a cultural code. The cultural code is a mental, national feature of the people. Its origins have stabilized the idea of independence. Key words: independence, nation, value, code, folklore, fiction.
