Sobir O'nar's Poetics: Synthesizing Folkloric Traditions with Realist and Paranormal Dimensions

Abstract

This paper explores the synthesis of folkloric motifs, realist narrative techniques, and paranormal elements in the modern Uzbek novella Chambilbelning oydalasi by Sobir O‘nar. The study demonstrates how the author fuses metaphysical thinking with national traditions to articulate spiritual transformation and moral renewal through the depiction of clinical death and out-of-body experiences. The work is evaluated through a modernist lens, revealing its philosophical and symbolic complexity.
