This article presents a comparative linguoculturological analysis of symmetry and asymmetry in English and Uzbek literary texts. Symmetry and asymmetry are examined not only as stylistic and structural devices but also as culturally significant phenomena reflecting national worldviews. The analysis focuses on syntactic parallelism, repetition, inversion, semantic opposition, and textual imbalance, illustrated with concrete literary examples. The findings reveal culture-specific interpretations of symmetry and asymmetry within English and Uzbek literary traditions and contribute to the development of comparative linguoculturological studies.
