This paper explores the profound impact of oral folk tradition on the poetic works of the Karakalpak poet Berdimurat Qoblanov, widely known as Berdaq (1827–1900). His poetry serves as a bridge between oral and written traditions, reflecting a deep connection to folk songs, proverbs, and legends. Through a detailed analysis of his poetic style, this study examines how Berdaq preserved and revitalized national identity, ensuring that traditional motifs remained relevant in modern literary discourse. Moreover, the research highlights how Berdaq’s adaptation of oral elements contributed to the longevity and evolution of Karakalpak literature, influencing subsequent generations of poets. By incorporating new scholarly perspectives, this paper sheds light on the cultural and artistic significance of Berdaq’s poetry in the broader context of Central Asian literary traditions.
