Abstract

This article presents a comparative-theoretical analysis of the interpretation of the phenomenon of self-understanding in the works of John Fowles, one of the major figures of English postmodern literature, and Utkir Hoshimov, a leading representative of Uzbek prose. The study examines such works as The Magus, Daniel Martin, The French Lieutenant’s Woman, and Dunyoning ishlari, focusing on the inner world of the individual, the crisis of identity, the psychological layers of the search for selfhood, and the artistic strategies through which these aspects are revealed under the influence of postmodern worldviews.
