About the Department of Literature of the Independence Period and Literature Theory

The Department of Literature of the Period of Independence and Literary Studies is one of the first departments at SamSU. It was founded in 1927 under the name "History of Uzbek literature". Such great literary scholars as A. Fitrat, S. Ayniy, A. Sadiy, V. Abdullayev, and O. Sharafiddinov contributed greatly to the formation of the department.

In 1984, the department of modern Uzbek literature was separated from the department. Since 2015-2016 academic year it was merged and called "Department of Uzbek language and literature". Since 2017, the department has been operating under the name "Department of Literature of the Independence Period and Literary Studies." Literary scholars who have worked in the department over the years have achieved a number of successes. The results of these works are "Introduction to Literary Studies" by N. Hotamov, Sh. Kholmatov, "History of Modern Uzbek Literature" by D. Shermukhammedov, "Theory of Literary Studies", "Foundations of Art Creation", "Theory of Literature" by H. Umurov, which serve as textbooks for students of philological departments of higher educational institutions of our republic.

From the very beginning, the department's staff have been combining pedagogical work with research work and have achieved good results. Samarkand scientists in different years defended doctoral dissertations on modern Uzbek literature. Among them are: Orif Ikromov (1970), Sadulla Mirzaev (1973), Nuriddin Shukurov (1973), Rahim Mukimov (1975), Hotam Umurov (1984), Shavkat Kholmatov (1986), Isroil Mirzaev (1991), Shavkat Khasanov (2004), Abdurahim Soliev (2012 ), Azmiddin Nosirov (2017), Mahfuza Davronova (2019), Usmon Kobilov (2019), and many graduate students, doctoral students, and young researchers have in different years defended PhD theses with the help of the department. Most of them work at universities and pedagogical institutes, institutions, publishing houses, newspapers and magazines in different cities and regions of Uzbekistan, have contributed and are contributing to the development of science, school and education in our country.

The activity of "Shalola" and "Followers of Behbudi" circles has become more active under the department. Members of the circles are honored by their participation in various events at the university and regional levels. One of the future goals of our department is to support the activities of faculty members who are currently pursuing doctoral theses, to help them achieve their goals. Professors and lecturers of our department conduct trainings based on new pedagogical technologies in accordance with modern requirements.
