Abstract
This article explores the historical and artistic dimensions of Pirimqul Qodirov’s
novel Yulduzli tunlar (Starry Nights), an eminent work in the Uzbek historical novel
tradition. Focusing on the portrayal of 15th-16th century Central Asia during the
decline of the Timurid dynasty and Babur Mirza’s formative years, the study examines
the novel’s narrative strategies, use of symbolism, and intertextual connections,
particularly with the Baburnama. The analysis reveals the novel’s role in bridging
historical facts and artistic interpretation, providing nuanced insights into the
sociopolitical upheavals of the era, psychological depth of the protagonist, and broader
cultural transformations. The article argues that Yulduzli tunlar not only enriches
Uzbek literary heritage but also contributes significantly to the global genre of
historical novels through its sophisticated blend of historiography and poetic imagery.
