精彩内容 One of the three epics of China, Kyrgyz people's masterpiece Manas was already listed into China's National-level Catalogue of Representative Works of Intangible Cultural Heritage in 2005. In 2009, it was also placed into the United Nations' List of Representative Works of Humankind's Intangible Cultural Heritage. Acclaimed as a living fossil of Kyrgyz Nationality's culture, the heroic epic Manas showcases what Kyrgyz people have long been yearning for and aspiring after. As a folk literary masterpiece with national character, it eulogizes the heroic feats achieved by Kyrgyz people's dauntless khan and his outstanding descendants from his later seven generations while they campaign for the happiness and well- being of the whole ethnic group. Consisting of eight parts, the epic contains more than 235,000 lines in all. Each part is named after a certain protagonist. Titles of different parts are as follows: Manas (volume one), Semetei (volume two), Seitek (volume three), Kenenim (volume four), Seyit (volume five), Asilbaqa and Bekbaqa (volume six), Sombilek (volume seven) and Qiktey (volume eight). The stories of the epic circulate widely not only among Kyrgyz minority members living in China but also among the Kyrgyz people settling down in Central Asia. Only a small part of the folk stories are chosen and then adapted into Legend of Manas.
