TEACHING NEW POETRY IN COMPREHENSIVE SCHOOLS

Abstract

Jadid literature is one of the phenomena that brought a profound
transformation to Uzbek cultural and social life, serving as a means to modernize
society and elevate national consciousness and culture. Emerging in the late 19th
and early 20th centuries, this movement found vivid expression not only in
journalism and drama but also in poetry. The key characteristics of Jadid poetry
include patriotism, enlightenment, progressive ideas, and a focus on awakening the
people. Today, teaching Jadid literature and poetry in general education schools
holds great significance. It not only provides students with historical knowledge but
also fosters their critical thinking and strengthens their national identity. This article
comprehensively analyzes the importance of Jadid literature, the distinctive features
of Jadid poetry, and the issues related to its teaching in general education schools
