Abstract

What the Rose did to the Cypress?" is a Persian folk tale that emerged in the 13th–14th centuries and gained widespread popularity across Central Asia. In Uzbekistan, this literary epic exists in both lithographic and manuscript forms under various titles such as “Qissai Sanobar”, “Gul and Sanobar”, “Kitobi Sanobar”, “Shahzoda Sanobar”. This article explores the plot of the written epic and offers a comparative analysis with the epic Zevarxon.
