PHILOLOGY,  SOCIOLOGY AND CULTUROLOGY №14
Karakalpakstan is a land of ancient 
civilization which occupies the whole 
northwestern end of Uzbekistan. The 
world’s second largest museum, The 
Savitsky State Museum of Arts, is situated 
in this wonderful country. It is a real 
treasure of cultural heritage of 
Karakalpakstan. This country can also 
boast of unique monuments of bygone 
civilizations such as settlement Tuprak-
Kala, Janbas-Kala and Ayaz-Kala fortress-
es and archaeological complex Mizdakhan 
that includes numerous historical monu-
ments. There lived outstanding repre-
sentatives of Karakalpak literature like 
Berdakh, Ajiniyaz and etc. Ajiniyaz’s most 
famous work “Buzatau” tells of the 
Karakalpaks’ piligrimage. Berdakh is re-
garded as the first historian of the 
Karakalpak people, who raised historical 
facts, names and information about the 
history and ethnography of the country in 
his work “Shezhire”. Inspired by this pic-
turesque places, kind-hearted people and 
world-renowned brilliant minds, there 
came a beloved and respected poet named 
Ibrayim Yusupov. It is difficult to name a 
poet who wouldn’t dedicate the most sin-
cere lines to the Motherland. Ibrayim 
Yusupov is the greatest one who could 
demonstrate his loyalty and love to his 
motherland skillfully in his poetry. He 
was born on May 5 in 1929 in the village 
of Azat in Chimbay region of 
Karakalpakstan. He is considered to be a 
classical poet who raised Karakalpak po-
etry to the top of its flourishment. I.Yu-
supov’s eternal poetry was accepted not 
only by the Karakalpak people but also all 
the Turkic people as well. Uzbek poetess 
Zulfiya Isroilova by appreciating the tal-
ent of the poet writes that “Ibrayim Yu-
supov is a poet with his individual style, 
rich language and burning feelings” 
[1,10p]
The theme of Motherland and love for 
his country takes an honourable place in 
the lyrics of the poet. Let’s pay attention to 
the poet’s “Qaraqalpaqti ko’p maqtama 
ko’zimshe” (“Don’t praise Karakalpaks to 
their face”)poem:
He sacrificed his only horse
He cut it for receiving guests
He went on foot, being glad for guests,
