This study investigates the cultural and ideological dimensions of literary translation in Central Asian literature by analyzing Christopher Fort’s 2019 English rendering of Abdulhamid Sulaymon o‘g‘li Cho‘lpon’s seminal novel, Night and Day (Kecha va kunduz). Drawing upon Lawrence Venuti’s theoretical dichotomy of domestication and foreignization, the research evaluates how culture-specific items (realia), historical socio- political hierarchies, and localized phraseological units are negotiated across distinct linguistic landscapes. Through a qualitative, comparative-descriptive micro-textual analysis of the source and target texts, the paper demonstrates that Fort moves away from traditional Anglophone trends of totalizing domestication. Instead, he implements a visible, academically grounded model of foreignization, utilizing phonetic transliteration and extensive paratextual mechanisms like footnotes and glossaries. The findings reveal that this strategic approach effectively safeguards the distinct socio-religious identity and political subtext of the Jadid era from ethnocentric assimilation, while selective domesticating adjustments maintain narrative fluency for international readers. Ultimately, this paper underscores the ethical role of foreignization in preserving minority literary heritage and offers a valuable methodological blueprint for contemporary Central Asian translation studies.
