Onomastic Metaphors in The Works of Utkir Hoshimov
View through CrossRef
This article explores the use of onomastic metaphors in the literary works of Utkir Hoshimov, a prominent Uzbek writer known for his rich and culturally nuanced language. Onomastic metaphors—those derived from proper names such as personal names, place names, and ethnonyms—serve as a significant stylistic device in Hoshimov’s narratives. They not only enrich the imagery and expressiveness of the text but also reflect the national mentality, historical consciousness, and sociocultural context of the Uzbek people. The study analyzes selected examples from Hoshimov’s major works to identify how proper names are metaphorically transformed to convey emotional, symbolic, or evaluative meanings. These metaphorical usages highlight the deep interconnection between language, identity, and cultural memory in Uzbek literature.
