Abstract
The article explores the reflection of spiritual and patriotic values through the motif of the native land in the works of Tufan Minnullin. The study highlights how national ideals and cultural orientations are embodied in the playwright’s dramaturgy through artistic images, symbols, and narrative structures. Special attention is given to the concept of the “small homeland”, which functions not only as a space of memory and traditions but also as a spiritual source shaping the individual’s worldview and moral choices. The analysis demonstrates that Minnullin’s interpretation of the native land is multifaceted: it expresses the deep connection between people and their ancestors, emphasizes cultural rootedness, and at the same time conveys the idea of patriotic devotion to the nation.
