CORPUS-DRIVEN INNOVATIONS FOR INTERPRETING JADID TEXTS

The literary and cultural outputs of the Jadid movement, which sought educational and social reforms in Central Asia during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, hold significant historical and linguistic value. Modern corpus-based approaches provide novel avenues to explore these texts, uncovering nuanced patterns of discourse, rhetorical devices, and sociocultural content embedded within them. This article delves into how corpus methodologies enhance the interpretation of Jadid literature, discussing key analytical frameworks, tools, and strategies. Furthermore, it emphasizes the importance of integrating discourse analysis with corpus tools for language educators, historians, and scholars of linguistics. By applying corpus methods, researchers can yield more robust insights into the reformist ideas of the Jadids and their linguistic styles, strengthening our collective understanding of Uzbekistan’s intellectual heritage.
