“Tobut” Va “Maymun Yetaklagan Odam” Hikoyalarida Ekzistensial Makon Talqini

Key Points

• The study investigates the interpretation of existential space in Nazar Eshonqul's stories.
• Philosophical analysis of existential thought (Heidegger, Sartre, Camus)
• Application of modern narratology methods (Herman, Rajun)
• Comparative analysis of the narratives 'Tobut' and 'The Man Led by a Monkey'
• In 'Tobut', space is interpreted within the context of ontology, relating soil, confined space, and the body.
• In 'The Man Led by a Monkey', urban space becomes a stage for absurd existence, with the monkey symbolizing the search for human freedom.
• The analysis proves that Eshonqul's interpretation of existential space establishes a new artistic-philosophical paradigm in Uzbek narrative.
