Voices of Change: Social Criticism in Jadid Playwriting

Behbudi's work is examined as a significant literary phenomenon that reflects the social realities of the country, marking the first Uzbek drama. In the play “Parricide”, Behbudi condemns a wealthy man as an indifferent father who neglects the upbringing of his son. In contrast, Qodiriy highlights another aspect of the issue through the portrayal of the selfish and greedy Fayziboy in “Unhappy Groom”. This article argues that the representation of both wealthy men as self-serving individuals, solely pursuing their own interests, introduces a novel concept. Furthermore, it discusses the congruity of the ideas and interpretations presented in the dramas of Behbudi and Qodiriy, as well as their distinctiveness.
