Depiction of the image of Huseyn Javid in Nakhchivan architecture

Abstract

Azerbaijani culture, art and architecture occupied a special place in the cultural life of the Near and Middle East due to the socio-economic and political conditions of the late 19th and early 20th centuries and the faster development of capitalist relations than in other Muslim Eastern countries. The study and promotion of Huseyn Javid’s work, who lived and created at the same time and made unparalleled contributions to Azerbaijani culture, is an integral part of the state’s cultural policy in Azerbaijan. Even after the great leader Heydar Aliyev managed to return Javid’s grave from Siberia to Baku in 1982, he did not spare the philosopher-poet his moral patronage and earned the poet his second acquittal. Later, the creation of Javid’s House Museums in Nakhchivan and Baku, the construction of his mausoleum, the printing of his collection, and the holding of 100 and 120-year jubilee events are also connected with the name of the great leader Heydar Aliyev. Like Heydar Aliyev, during the reign of his visionary and wise follower – the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan Mr Ilham Aliyev, a lot of work has been done in the field of elevating the name of Huseyn Javid, commemorating the writer’s memory with respect and honor, and promoting Javid’s creativity at the state level. The 125th, 130th, 135th and 140th anniversaries of Huseyn Javid were celebrated at a high level by the relevant decrees of the President Mr. Ilham Aliyev.
