THE IMAGE OF THE LYRICAL HERO IN U. KHOJANAZAROV’S LYRICS

Abstract

This paper examines the concept and artistic representation of the lyrical hero in the works of U. Khojanazarov. Although the problem of the lyrical hero has been explored to some extent in Karakalpak literary studies, it remains insufficiently analyzed in Khojanazarov’s poetry. The research outlines the theoretical background of the concept and provides a focused analysis of its manifestation in the poet’s lyrical oeuvre. The study concludes that Khojanazarov’s lyrical hero represents a synthesis of individual and collective experiences, embodying universal human values and the moral integrity characteristic of modern Karakalpak poetry.
