Abstract. This article analyzes the methods of creating the image of Zahiriddin Muhammad Babur in the historical works of European and Uzbek writers and the skill of artistic depiction of the characters' speech. The study considers the figure of Babur not only as a historical figure, but also as a complex artistic image, and highlights the aesthetic views of writers and the methods of reflecting the spirit of the era through his portrait. The article, along with a deep psychological analysis of the image of Babur in Pirimqul Kadirov's novel "Starry Nights", studies how Babur's personality, inner experiences and historical decisions are depicted in European literature (in particular, biographical novels based on the life of Babur). It also analyzes the character of the characters, their social and spiritual world through the speech of the characters.The article reveals the peculiarities of the European and Uzbek literary schools in creating the image, the artistic interpretation of the figure of Babur, and how historical truth and artistic truth are combined. This scientific work may be useful for literary critics, philologists, historians, and researchers in the field of Babur studies.
