Lexical Characteristics of the Representation of Historical Figures in English and Uzbek Literature

This thesis analyzes the lexical features used in the representation of historical figures in English and Uzbek literature. The study highlights how lexical choices reflect cultural values, historical memory, and the author’s worldview. The research demonstrates that in Uzbek (Eastern) literary tradition, historical figures are predominantly portrayed through honorific, moral, and metaphorical vocabulary, emphasizing spiritual ideals and ethical perfection. In contrast, English (Western) literature tends to employ descriptive, socio-political, and psychologically neutral lexical units, presenting historical figures as real individuals shaped by social and political contexts. The findings confirm that the lexical construction of historical figures is not universal but culturally conditioned, reflecting different aesthetic and ideological approaches in Eastern and Western literary traditions.
