THE HARMONY OF INDIVIDUAL SPEECH AND THE LANGUAGE OF THE ERA IN QODIRIY'S NOVELS: A CASE STUDY OF MEHROBDAN CHAYON
Keywords:
Abdulla Qodiriy, Uzbek historical novel, individual speechAbstract
Abdulla Qodiriy’s Mehrobdan Chayon (1929) stands at the crossroads of Uzbek literary modernism and traditional narrative, uniting the voices of vividly individualized characters with the polyphonic idiom of an era marked by reform-minded Jadid intellectuals and Soviet linguistic policy. This article investigates how Qodiriy achieves stylistic consonance between the speech peculiar to his protagonists and the socio-historical language environment of late-nineteenth-century Turkestan as retrospectively refracted through the 1920s. The findings contribute to Uzbek literary studies by offering a replicable method for tracing harmony between micro-speech and macro-language in historical novels, suggesting new avenues for comparative research on Central Asian realism.
