Abstract. The article is an analysis of Karachay-Balkar folk songs belonging to the historical-heroic genre. Using a continuous sampling method, five main models of artistic conflict, determined by factors of a historical, geographical and ethnocultural nature, were identified and described. Among them are geopolitical, environmental, religious, class and family conflicts. Their features are examined on the basis of such works as «Princess Zurum», «Dyugerbiy», «Bijneger», «Sorrowful Song of the Sogaevs», «Ashtotur and Prince Batok», «Bekbolat Makhiev», «Let’s go to the Baksan village». The conclusion is drawn about the importance of preventing and resolving conflicts of any kind through cultural dialogue.
Keywords: oral folk art, Karachay-Balkarian folklore, historical-heroic song, conflict, collision, anthropocentrism, poetics
