Abstract: The scholarly heritage of Abdurauf Fitrat constitutes a comprehensive research laboratory across multiple branches of philology, including literary studies and linguistics. His contributions to lexicography are significant not only in the field of linguistics but also in literary theory, literary criticism, literary history, and historical poetics. In particular, his two major works devoted to the study of Diwan Lughat al-Turk — namely, “Eng eski turk adabiyoti namunalari” (Samples of the Earliest Turkic Literature) and “Devonu lug‘ot” so‘zlari uchun fihrist” (A Lexical Index to the Diwan Lughat al-Turk) — though written in different genres, are unified through their engagement with lexicological scholarship. The collection “Eng eski turk adabiyoti namunalari” represents one of the first anthologies compiled in the early 20th century, whereas “Devonu lug‘ot” so‘zlari uchun fihrist” is regarded as the first index-dictionary specifically created for Mahmud al-Kashgari’s renowned lexicographic work. This article presents a comparative analysis of the glossary section of “Eng eski turk adabiyoti namunalari” with the wordlist of “Devonu lug‘ot” so‘zlari uchun fihrist”. It also explores the structure and methodology employed in the compilation of the index, shedding light on Fitrat’s principles of dictionary-making. The research employs statistical, descriptive, and comparative methods to analyze the linguistic and literary dimensions of Fitrat’s lexicographical approach.
Key words: anthology, dictionary, lexicography, fihrist, index glossary, literary excerpt.
