THE FEMALE CONCEPT IN O‘TKIR HOSHIMOV’S IKKI ESHIK ORASIDA: A LINGUOPOETIC AND COGNITIVE INTERPRETATION

Abstract

This article explores the linguopoetic and literary interpretation of the female concept in O‘tkir Hoshimov’s novel Ikki eshik orasida. Drawing upon cognitive linguistics, linguocultural theory, discourse analysis, and literary stylistics, the study investigates how female identity is constructed through linguistic structures, symbolic imagery, and implicit psychological narration. The analysis demonstrates that Hoshimov portrays women as multidimensional subjects embodying emotional endurance, moral resilience, and cultural continuity. Particular attention is paid to nonverbal psychological representation, conceptual metaphors, and stylistic devices that shape the emotional and aesthetic depth of female characters. The findings reveal that the female concept in the novel functions as a culturally and cognitively significant construct reflecting both national worldview and universal human experience
