This article provides a comparative analysis of parody and intertextuality as key poetic categories of postmodern literature, examined through the prism of English and Uzbek prose. Drawing on the theoretical views of leading scholars of postmodernism, the study reveals the deconstructive and playful nature of parody in English literature, while highlighting its national and aesthetic interpretation in Uzbek prose. The article also demonstrates, on a scholarly basis, how intertextuality functions as a mode of intertextual dialogue and manifests differently in the two literary traditions. The research contributes to identifying both the national and global characteristics of postmodern literature.
