Explanation
Four authors were studied in this section. Mirkarim Osim (“Zulmat ichra nur”) – a historical novella whose hero is little Alisher. Oybek (“Fanorchi ota”, “Bolaning ko‘ngli poshsho”) – a story and a scene from a novella. Mirtemir (“Bulut”, “Shudring”, “Baliq ovi”) – lyric poems about nature and childhood memory. O‘tkir Hoshimov (“Dunyoning ishlari”, “Farzandlarimga o‘gitlar”) – a novella about the mother and counsels. What these works share is the value of kindness, honesty, nature and family; they differ in genre: poem, story, novella and counsel. In review it is important to connect author, title, genre and character.
