This article examines the literary and scholarly activities of the prominent Uzbek writer Hamid Olimjon within the complex socio-cultural and ideological processes of the 1920s-1940s. The study analyzes the facets of poetry, publicism, and scholarship in the writerʼs work not as isolated domains, but as an integrated, mutually reinforcing system. Under the constraints of Soviet censorship and political pressure, Hamid Olimjonʼs scholarly courage and national preservation efforts are objectively evaluated, particularly regarding national folklore (the publication of the “Alpomish” epic) and the promotion of classical literary figures (such as Alisher Navoiy and Ahmad Yassaviy). The article addresses the writerʼs stance toward Jadidism through the prism of ideological pressures, shedding light on the methodological paradoxes of his evolution. The findings allow for a reassessment of his legacy free from Soviet dogmas, offering essential theoretical insights for contemporary literary criticism, folklore studies, and intellectual history.
