Thanks to Bayan Umirbekovna’s research, new directions of scientific research in the field of philology have been developed: problems of genre-style originality of prose in modern literary studies, the peculiarities of the internal evolution of genres and Eurasian motifs as an expression of spiritual harmony in the context of the dialogue of Eastern and Western cultures, the analysis of poetics.
