Abstract

Independence has enabled creators across our nation to pioneer novel concepts, embracing our lofty literary and aesthetic standards while accurately representing historical truths. This shift in fiction is evident in various authors' work, attracting attention from local and international literary scholars, who have investigated the balance between historical fact, interpretation, and aesthetic ideals. This article explores the portrayal of major historical figures in Uzbek literature, particularly Navoi. It considers how historical facts are interpreted and factors influencing the creation of historical works. The appraisal of an artistic piece and the portrayal of historical figures in Uzbek prose during the independence period is also discussed. Thus, the significance of historicity and artistic interpretation of a historical figure in contemporary Uzbek literature is underscored.
