Abstract

This scientific article analyzes the problems associated with the image of orphanhood in current Uzbek stories. In the stories, the plot of orphanhood, the motive of orphanhood, the theme of orphanhood, and the images of an orphan child are artistic studies. Additionally, the paper investigates the symbolic use of orphanhood as a narrative tool to comment on broader societal issues, such as poverty, family disintegration, and social alienation. The study also addresses the cultural significance of orphanhood in Uzbekistan, exploring how these stories shape public perceptions and inform the discourse on child welfare, education, and the role of the state in providing support for vulnerable populations. Through a close reading of selected works, the study offers insight into the evolving literary treatment of orphanhood in Uzbekistan and its reflection of contemporary social values.
