Kokand

“Kokand” as a book category encompasses works about the historic Silk Road city and the former Khanate of Kokand in today’s Fergana Valley, Uzbekistan. It includes histories of the khanate’s politics and diplomacy, Russian imperial conquest, and the short‑lived Kokand Autonomy of 1917–18; studies of religion and letters (Naqshbandi Sufism, Chagatai/Turkic‑Persian literary culture, Jadid reform); and explorations of urban life, bazaars, and renowned craft traditions such as ikat/atlas textiles, ceramics, and woodcarving. Architecture and place—Khudayar Khan’s palace, mosques, madrasas, and oasis irrigation—feature prominently, alongside ethnography of the valley’s multiethnic society. The category can span academic histories, travel writing, photo essays, fiction, and memoirs that together trace how Kokand’s crossroads position shaped Central Asian culture and modernity.
