Abstract
This thesis examines how heroic imagery in literature is translated across cultures – focusing on Uzbek epic narratives and their English counterparts – and what these translations reveal about intercultural communication. The study outlines cultural differences in defining a “hero,” reviews translation strategies for culturally specific heroic references, and analyzes examples (such as the Uzbek epic hero Alpomish) in translation. Through this analysis, it highlights how translators mediate cultural values, either bridging or widening gaps, and the implications for cross-cultural understanding.
