This scholarly monograph, Psychological and Social Aspects Suicide Tragedy in English Literature, offers a comprehensive and methodologically grounded investigation into the representation of suicide as a multifaceted phenomenon within two distinct yet dialogically interconnected literary traditions. By drawing on a diverse corpus of texts-from canonical English works to emblematic Uzbek literary narratives-the study elucidates how suicide is constructed not only as a deeply personal and psychological experience but also as a socially mediated and culturally encoded act. It positions suicide within a complex matrix of literary aesthetics, sociocultural discourse, and human existential reflection. Interdisciplinary in scope, the research integrates perspectives from literary theory, psychology, sociology, and comparative cultural studies to examine the underlying causes, symbolic articulations, and ethical implications of suicidal behaviour as portrayed in literature. Through close textual analysis and critical interpretation, the monograph uncovers the psychological profiles of literary characters.
