Аннотация:
The father figure in literature has always been a central archetype reflecting social, cultural, and spiritual realities. In Eastern literatures of the 21st century, the poetic interpretations of the father reveal not only universal values but also national peculiarities. This article comparatively analyzes the image of the father in Uzbek, Japanese, Chinese, and Turkish literatures. The study shows that while in Uzbek literature the father is mostly represented as wise, kind, and guiding, in Japanese works he is often associated with psychological conflicts; in Turkish novels, father–son contradictions prevail; and in Chinese prose, fathers are depicted within the struggles of social injustice and rural life. Such comparative research allows us to reveal the dynamic functions of the father figure in the cultural memory of different nations.
