A poetic evening “The oath of my life”, dedicated to the 125th anniversary of S.Toraighyrov was held at the assembly hall of the S.Toraighyrov PSU.

The event was organized by the “Arcobaleno” Student Theater.

The meeting was held in the format of an “open microphone”: all those present, students and teachers, and guests who are not indifferent to poetry, could get acquainted with the works of Sultanmakhmut Toraighyrov and present their poems.

– Sultanmakhmut Toraighyrov, as well as his work, was a multi-faceted person. This is probably the only poet who wrote his works in different genres - he has novels, poems, lines, articles, notes, writings, journalistic and much more. All of this speaks of his extensive knowledge and curiosity”, says Yerzhan Toraighyrov, director of the “Rukhani Zangyru” Institute.

During the meeting, he, a descendant of S.Toraighyrov, spoke about a diary in Arabic written by his grandfather Shaimardan Toraighyrov, studying the heritage of the great ancestor. The diary contains notes on episodes from Sultanmakhmut Toraighyrov’s childhood, which have never been published before.
