The end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, characterized by the expansion of enlightenment, development of education, press and art in Azerbaijan, marked by many cultural events, went down in history as the formation of national thought and national statehood. But these facts have been ignored for many years, and were presented from a subjective and biased point of view during the Soviet times. However, the cultural heritage of that period, especially the reforms implemented in 1918-1920 to give equal rights to all citizens, regardless of ethnic, religious and political affiliation, gender, state attributes and reforms in education, science and culture, restored the state independence of the Azerbaijan people. In this sense, the study of cultural processes and modernization in Azerbaijan, including cultural reforms during the Azerbaijan Democratic Republic (1918-1920) is relevant both in the terms of studying historical experience and the successful implementation of cultural construction and integration into the world in modern times. The main purpose of the study is to explore the cultural basis of the process of historical renewal and modernization in Azerbaijan, to use the results of this experience in building a modern democratic civil society. The cultural analysis of modernization processes in Azerbaijan became the object of research in the article and the problem was evaluated from the standpoint of East-West conceptual ideas, the logical results of the enlightenment process resulting from the establishment of the Republic were summarized and the main directions of cultural construction in the republic were highlighted.

The Diversity of Asia in the Issues of Culture, Religion and Ethics, Torun POLAND, 2019
The geopolitical settlement of Azerbaijan, as lands situated between Iran and Russia, determined significantly the whole historical process of formation of the country and the nation. Thus, the modernization of its social and cultural life bears in itself facts that can be considered unique because of their chronology and the peculiar situations of the society in which they developed. Azerbaijan encountered surely obstacles of various nature on the way to the formation of an effective socially well balanced Europeanization. In this respect, the contribution of Azerbaijani patriots is outstanding. Thanks to their efforts, it can be stated that among Muslim countries Azerbaijan pioneered in many fields of social improvement. Indeed, the historical process that took place there at the end of 19th–beginning of 20th century is the example that universal ideas such as secular education of masses, women and children rights, freedom in the Arts, democracy and equality of gender are possible to be efficiently infused in Muslim society with long-lasting benefits.

The problem of the research is the Azerbaijani civilization. Azerbaijani civilization occupies a special place among other relevant civilizations with its unique preconditions, content and essence. The presented problem is studied from the main historical aspect. For this, a set of research methods is used. Among them, genetic (study of historical events and processes from their origins), historical comparison, periodization and typology methods take the main place. As a result of the research, it is determined that the historical and cultural development of Azerbaijan confi rms the legitimacy of the separation of the Azerbaijani civilization as an independent object of scientifi c research. It is determined that the Azerbaijani civilization has passed a very complex development path. Its main context is the historical development features of Azerbaijan. From this point of view, stages that leave serious traces in the development of Azerbaijani civilization (fi rst state unions, Atropatena-Albania (Caucasus) period, etc.) are distinguished.

The story creativity of Azerbaijan writers as Mammadguluzadeh’s and Hagverdiyev’s is very similar to the British writer James Joyce’s. Considering all this, the mutual study of genre stories of both literature based of these authors works is one of the critical issues in the study of literature.
