Human and society in Nizami humanism

Abstract

The history of Azerbaijani culturology consists of three stages of historical evolution:
1. Culturological thought in Azerbaijan during ancient times and the Middle
Ages
2. Culturological thought in the 13th–18th centuries
3. History of culturological thought called Azerbaijan enlightenment The great Azerbaijani poet Nizami Ganjavi’s creative activity falls into the first stage of this evolution – “history of culturological thought during ancient times and the Middle Ages”, which consists of three parts:
1. Religious mythological trends (Avesta, Zarvanism, Manichaeism, Mazdakism)
2. Azerbaijani Eastern Peripateticism (Bahmanyar, Najmaddin Nakhchivani, S. Urmavi)
3. Azerbaijan renaissance (Kh. Shirvani, N. Ganjavi, N. Tusi) [1, p. 134] A systematic approach to the history of culturological thought attracts attention with the grand and magnificent examples of the great poet’s creative activity. The universal themes that he touched on illuminate the history of thought with the ideological and aesthetic shades. Especially the works of human challenges, which are known as the humanist trend of the Renaissance, are the product of the poet’s broad and comprehensive worldview. Nizami Ganjavi can be considered the first creator of the world renaissance not only in Azerbaijan, but also in the world as a whole, as well as the trend of humanism of the Renaissance can be associated with the name of Nizami and thus, Nizami Ganjavi can be considered the creator of humanist ideas. Therefore, all the works of the poet are universal.
