THE WORKS OF PIRIMKUL KADYROV – A MASTERPIECE OF UZBEK LLITERATURE

Abstract

The article examines the work of People's Writer of Uzbekistan Pirimkul Kadyrov (1928–2010) as a phenomenon of 20th-century Uzbek literature. Based on an analysis of the author's key works – the novels "Black Eyes", "Diamond Belt", the historical dilogy "Starry Nights" and "Babur" – the distinctive features of the writer's artistic world are identified: profound historicism, psychologism, and a reflection of the national worldview. Special attention is paid to the novels about Zahiriddin Muhammad Babur, which are rightfully considered masterpieces not only of Uzbek but also of world historical prose.
