This article analyzes the ideological foundations of the
dramatic works of Turgut Özakman and Abdurauf Fitrat, two prominent
representatives of Turkish and Uzbek modern literature. Both playwrights
reflected national awakening, social transformation, and the struggle for
cultural and political independence in their dramas. Through a comparative
literary analysis, this study examines themes such as national identity,
reformism, resistance, and the role of intellectuals in society. The findings
demonstrate that although Özakman and Fitrat emerged from different
historical contexts, their dramatic works share common ideological concerns
rooted in national revival and modernization. At the same time, differences in
stylistic expression and historical circumstances shape their distinct dramatic
visions.
