Abstract
This article examines the creative legacy of Abdulhamid Sulaymon o‘g‘li Cho‘lpon, one of the most prominent representatives of twentieth-century Uzbek literature and a leading figure of Jadid literature and the national awakening movement, with particular emphasis on his renowned novel Night and Day. The novel is of special significance for its artistic and aesthetic portrayal of a complex historical turning point in Uzbek society, addressing social and psychological conflicts, the awakening of national consciousness, and issues of personal freedom. The study offers a comprehensive analysis of the novel’s plot structure, system of characters, and the author’s distinctive individual style, while also undertaking a comparative examination of the work’s translations into foreign languages.
