An important part of this collection is manuscripts, which are the literary heritage of Uzbekistan. Basically, they were created on the territory of Mawarannahr or in India in the Baburid period by immigrants from Mawarannahr. Part Two of the volume “The Literary Legacy of Uzbekistan in the Rampur Raza Library Collection (India)” presents works on jurisprudence and philosophy, rhetoric, poetry, medicine and other themes that reveal the richness of the genre of medieval literature.
The publication is intended not only for members of the academic research community, but also for broad domestic and foreign audiences, as well as the young generation who are interested in the rich cultural heritage of Uzbekistan. The project without any analogue in the world is being implemented due to the personal attention of the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan Shavkat Mirziyoyev to the issues of cautious preservation, enrichment and augmentation of the historical, cultural and intellectual legacy of the Uzbek people. The readers of the Illustrated volumes may broaden their concept of the rich culture and art of Uzbekistan and watch the documentary on the disk attached to the Illustrated volume.
