ARTISTIC AND LINGUISTIC NATURE OF LUQMON BURIKHON'S NOVELLAS, THEMATIC SCOPE, AND THE LINGUAPOETIC SPECIFICITY OF THE AUTHOR'S IDIOLECT

This article presents a comprehensive scientific investigation into the artistic and linguistic nature, thematic scope, and linguapoetic specificity of the idiolect of prominent contemporary Uzbek writer Luqmon Burikhon, focusing on his distinguished novella cycle. Situated within the anthropocentric and cognitive paradigms of modern linguistics, the study examines how the author synthesizes ethno-cultural worldview, dialectal linguistic strata, and psychological realism. The analysis reveals the author’s individual conceptosphere, the role of somatic and natural realia, conceptual metaphors, phraseological modifications, and the pragmatic differentiation of character speech across distinct socio-demographic categories.
