Abstract
This scientific article examines the functional and semantic peculiarities of color symbolism in 20th century English and Uzbek literature. Through comparative analysis, the research reveals how color symbolism in these two literary traditions reflects different historical, cultural, and ideological contexts. The study demonstrates that while English modernists used color symbolism to express existential anxiety, spiritual crisis, and social criticism, Uzbek writers employed it as a means of national identity preservation, covert political expression, and cultural resistance. The article analyzes works by key representatives including George Orwell, Virginia Woolf, F. Scott Fitzgerald from English literature, and Abdulhamid Cho'lpon, Abdulla Qodiriy, Oybek from Uzbek literature, revealing fundamental differences in their approaches to color symbolism.
