Artistic interpretation of the image of Alisher Navoi in Uzbek literature

Abstract

Independence gave all the creators of our country the opportunity to think and create in a new way, to promote our high literary and aesthetic ideals, to show the historical truth truthfully, and to create works about great historical figures.

Such developments in fiction were also reflected in the works of many  writers. It can be seen that many foreign and Uzbek literary scholars and representatives of a number of branches of science studied the problem of historical fact and interpretation, the category of natural-aesthetic ideal. Their works covered issues related to literary studies in different degrees according to the goals and tasks they have set for themselves.

 This article deals with great historical figures of Uzbek literature, illumination of the problems of historical facts and imaginary interpretation of historical figures, the factors that caused the creation of a historical work, and the assessment of an artistic work. It also discusses the issue of attitude to historical figures in the Uzbek prose of the independence period, particularly, the problem of the expression of the figure of Navoi in the article. The article studies historicity and the artistic interpretation of the image of a historical figure in modern Uzbek literature which assumes great importance.
