Teaching the Theme of Nature in Fiction: Contemporary Problems and Approaches

ABSTRACT

The article examines the current problems and main aspects of studying the theme of nature in the context of modern requirements in the process of teaching literature. The relevance of the topic is justified by the fact that although the theme of nature in the teaching of literature has a long development path, real ideas and observations in artistic facts have been explained in most cases under the influence of ideological direction. However, the events taking place in modern times show that the more necessary the teaching of literature is in terms of the formation of human personality, the more relevant and important the issue of teaching and instilling the attitude towards nature as an integral part of man and existence in general is. During the research, analysis, synthesis, comparison and other scientific-methodological approaches were used, and solid scientific results and conclusions were obtained. The article shows that global climate change, the consequences it causes and the calls for a joint fight against these problems, including the goals set by the COP29 international event held in Azerbaijan, necessitate the formation of new content and requirements in the teaching of literature. In this regard, the teaching of the theme of nature in fiction should be rebuilt in accordance with modern standards. In conclusion, it is emphasized that the attitude towards nature should not be limited to loving it, but that one's understanding of oneself as a part of nature, and considering the fate of nature together with the fate of man, should become one of the main ideas of education.
