In the article the culture of folk laughter is based on the universal-anthropological models in the national cultural system and is more studied as a functional cultural phenomenon through these models. On the basis of theoretical-methodological approach based on socio-anthropological principles, the author presented a model of analysis of the images of folk laugh culture, including Mullah Nasreddin at two levels: ethnic-national and universal-anthropological. The analysis of the heroes of folk laughter at the ethnic-national level is explained by the peculiarities of the cultural environment in which it is formed and the universal-anthropological features are explained by the approach based on the confrontation of nature and culture.
