This article explores the linguoculturological features of symmetry and asymmetry in English and Uzbek literary texts. Symmetry and asymmetry are considered not only as stylistic and structural devices but also as culturally conditioned means of artistic expression. The study reveals how these phenomena reflect national mentality, aesthetic ideals, emotional attitudes, and worldview in literary discourse. Symmetry in English texts emphasizes order, rationality, and balance, while in Uzbek texts it is closely connected with poetic tradition, folklore, and collective cultural memory. Asymmetry in English literature often highlights psychological depth and creative experimentation, whereas in Uzbek literature it conveys emotional intensity, individuality, and artistic spontaneity. The comparative analysis demonstrates that symmetry and asymmetry are complementary, enhancing both the expressive potential and cultural significance of literary texts.
