This article studies and analyzes the direct and indirect influence of Western literature on the work of Abdulhamid Chulpon. This article explores the Western elements in Chulpon’s poetic corpus, focusing on his engagement with Romanticism, symbolism, and individualism—movements and concepts that emerged primarily in Europe but found resonant expression in his verse. In particular, the mutual influence and similarities of the work of the Russian poet Alexander Blok on Chulpon's poetry are analyzed. Through intertextual comparison and historical contextualization, the paper argues that Chulpon’s adoption of Western literary forms was not mere imitation but a creative adaptation that sought to articulate the aspirations and anxieties of a nation in transition.
