Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: At the beginning of the 20th century, women lived in conditions isolated from public and political life due to illiteracy and fanatical traditions, which created a number of difficulties for their personal lives. The intellectual elite of Azerbaijan tried to educate the people, explain their rights and duties, and put forward the idea that "until women are free as individuals, the problems of the people will remain unsolvable!" H. Zardabi, A. Aghayev, M. Shahtakhtli, J. Mammadıoğluzadeh, O. F. Nemanzadeh, A. Nazmi, M. A. Sabir, F. Kocharli, M. S. Ordubadi, J. Jabbarli, M. A. Rasulzadeh and others wrote more on this topic. They were able to draw attention to women's problems, not shying away from the attacks of fanatical religious people, criticizing the forced marriage of girls, the treatment of men as slaves, and drawing attention to the need to provide women with an equal education with men. Each of the artists mentioned above had a unique approach to the issue and artistic generalization. Of them, Mirza Alakbar Sabir's work attracts more attention with its originality in relation to the women's issue. The article examines Mirza Alakbar Sabir's work from the perspective of women's freedom, and his works, which reflect the motifs of the struggle against women's rights, which has become an important problem of the society of his time, have become the object of analysis.
