Alisher Navoi’s Khamsa: Publications and Research

Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This article is dedicated to the study of the publication history and research of Alisher Navoi’s Khamsa poems across different periods. It analyzes the dissemination of manuscripts from the 15th century onwards, as well as lithographic and critical editions published from the second half of the 19th century to the 20th century. Special attention is given to ideological modifications and omissions in Khamsa during the Soviet era due to censorship. Additionally, the article examines publications issued after independence, highlighting their characteristics, including the omission of religious and Sufi elements in earlier editions and the removal of such restrictions in the post-independence period. This study serves as a valuable source for understanding the publication history of Navoi’s legacy and developments in textual criticism.
