EXAMPLES OF AZERBAIJANI LITERATURE STUDIES IN FRENCH LITERATURE.

Interest in prominent figures of the East, literary examples and historical events in this region became one of the main areas of literary research in world literature, which gave impetus to the creation of great works of art, especially in the literature of European peoples. Starting from the 18th century, French literature showed great interest in oriental subjects: Madeleine de Scuderi, Jean Racine, Charles Louis de Montesquieu, Donnie Didro, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Francois Marie Aryu Voltaire, and in the 19th century Victor Hugo, Georges Sand, Alexander Dumas, Jules Verne. Literary figures such as Theophilus Gauthier, Alfons de Lamartine, Lille de Licont, wrote poems, novels and essays on this inexhaustible topic. In the twentieth century, this tradition was continued in French literature, and in the works of famous writers of that time, Henri Mass, Pierre Lotti, Louis Aragon, Georges Friel, Marcel Egreto, Heydar Bammat, a special place was occupied by oriental themes, valuable literary examples were created. The influence of these examples on French literature was studied. Scientific objectivity, comprehensive involvement of facts and information in the problem, comparative analysis, a critical analytical method, a causal method in studying realities were widely used in studying the problem, and the latest achievements of the country's literary criticism were taken into account.
