METHODOLOGY AND PHILOSOPHICAL WORLDVIEW IN ENGLISH AND UZBEK LITERATURE: A COMPARATIVE STUDY

This article presents a comparative analysis of methodology and philosophical worldview as foundational elements in English and Uzbek literary traditions. Drawing on hermeneutic, structuralist, and postcolonial theoretical frameworks, the study examines how distinct epistemological orientations—rooted in Enlightenment rationalism on the one hand and Sufi-Islamic philosophical traditions on the other—have shaped narrative form, aesthetic purpose, and ethical discourse in both literary canons. Through close textual analysis of representative works from each tradition, this research identifies both convergences and divergences in the philosophical underpinnings that guide literary composition and interpretation. The findings suggest that while both traditions employ literature as a vehicle for existential inquiry and social critique, they differ substantially in their conceptions of subjectivity, cosmological order, and the relationship between language and truth. This study contributes to the growing field of comparative world literature by providing a rigorous methodological framework for cross-cultural literary analysis.
