Revealing The Character Of The Heroic Children In “Sariq Devni Minib”
Keywords:
Heroic children, Sariq devni minib, Courage, Moral integrityAbstract
This study investigates how the heroic children in “Sariq devni minib” are constructed, developed, and valorized within a Central Asian literary framework. Employing a mixed-methods approach—close reading, thematic coding, and discourse analysis—the research identifies core traits such as deliberate courage, moral integrity, ingenuity under constraint, collaborative leadership, and emotional acumen. It argues that heroism is ethically centered on community welfare and protection of the vulnerable, rather than solitary feats. The yellow devil functions as a catalyst for revealing communal values, restoration, and restorative justice. Findings illuminate culturally grounded ideals of youth leadership, resilience, and intergenerational trust.
