THE IMAGE OF A LONG-SUFFERING WOMAN IN CREATIVITY JUBRAN KHALIL JUBRAN AND HUSSEIN JAVID (COMPARATIVE STUDY)

A figurative model is a living model, one way or another created in the imagination of a writer, which stimulates his creative fantasy when describing a specific character in its various manifestations, and also helps to find the necessary linguistic means, materials and images for creative work when creating this character. The image of a long-suffering woman occupies an important place in literature, especially in the works of Arab writers. Jubran Khalil Jubran and Huseyn Javad are two outstanding authors whose works are full of deep social and philosophical reflections on the fate of women. This study is aimed at analyzing the image of a long-suffering woman in their works. This study examines two female images: from the novel Broken Wings by the Lebanese writer Jubran Khalil Jubran (1883-1931) and from the play Maral by the Azerbaijani writer Huseyn Javid (1882-1941), in order to identify similarities and differences between them. The image of the long-suffering woman occupies an important place in literature, especially in the works of Arab writers. The purpose of this study is to analyze the image of the long-suffering woman in their works. Both works touch upon the problems of the position of women in Eastern societies. This is the image of a submissive woman in one of the first novels in Arabic literature, «Broken Wings», as well as in the play «Maral», the first dramatic work in Azerbaijani literature that depicts the suffering of women in Caucasian society at that time. The methodology of this study is based on the approach of the American school of comparative literature. As a result, it was concluded that the two writers took a similar path in achieving their main goal - to convey the image of an Eastern woman striving to gain freedom.
