تنقید:
تنقید عربی زبان کا لفظ ہے۔جس کے معنی جانچنا، پرکھنا ، کھرے اور کھوٹے کو الگ کرنا ہیں۔
تنقیدکی ضرورت و اہمیت:
تنقید کا سلسلہ تخلیق آدم سے شروع ہوا۔ جب اللہ تعالی نے حضرت آدم ؑ کو پید اکیا تو فرشتوں نے اللہ سے گزارش کہ کہ یہ انسان دنیا میں جاکر فساد اور لڑائی جھگڑے کرے گا۔ اس کی تخلیق کی ضرورت کیوں پیش آئی؟عبادت کے لیے تو ہم کافی ہیں۔ اس کی تخلیق پر نظر ثانی کی جائے۔اللہ نے فرشتوں کوغرض تخلیق آدم? سے آگاہ کیا۔سب سے پہلے آدمؑ پر تنقید کی گئی یعنی تخلیق پر تنقید ہوئی۔
نقاد بھی اسی دن پیدا ہوگیا تھا جس دن پہلی تخلیق ہوئی تھی۔اس حوالے سے پہلا شخص سقراط تھا۔ اس سے فلسفے کی بنیاد پڑی۔اس نے اپنے ہاتھ سے کچھ نہیں لکھا لیکن اس کی باتوں کو اس کے شاگرد افلاطون نے مکالمے کی شکل میں لکھا اور اس کتاب کا نام" مکالمات افلاطون"ہے۔اس کتاب میں زندگی کے تمام موضوعات پر بات کی گئی ہے۔ اس میں ایک مثالی ریاست کے موضوع پر بھی بات کی گئی ہے۔یوں ہم کہہ سکتے ہیں کہ تنقید کی ابتداء یونان سے ہوئی۔
بوطیقا ارسطو کی کتاب ہے۔ بوطیقا میں ارسطو نے نقل، فطرت، شاعری کی اصل، شاعری کی اقسام، المیہ کے اصول وغیرہ پر بحث کی ہے اور شاعری کا ایک آفاقی نظریہ پیش کیا ہے۔ ’’نقل‘‘ جمالیات کی ایک بنیادی اصطلاح ہے۔ ارسطو اس لفظ کا اطلاق شاعری پر کرتا ہے۔ پروفیسر بوچر کے الفاظ میں ارسطو کے ہاں نقل کا مطلب ہے حقیقی خیال کے مطابق تخلیق کرنا اور خیال کے معنی ہیں اشیا کی اصل جو عالم مثال میں موجود ہے، جس کی ناقص نقلیں اس دنیا میں نظرآتی ہیں۔ عالم حواس کی ہر شے عالم مثال کی نقل ہے۔

Among the amazing variety of forms of poetic expression by the folk of the Punjab region, this essay has selected three genres: mahiya, dhola and jugni. The study is meant to compare these three genres of Punjabi folklore, in their evolution, structure, expression and themes. The study finds that the three genres are very old in time origin and tracing their exact origins in history is impossible, only few hints are available. Their structures are variable, as mahiya has a fixed structure, dhola has rather loose structure giving more freedom to the singer-poet, and jugni has a specific meter in certain lines, but it has freedom to repeat some lines for perfect expression of the melody. The structures in fact follow the tunes, distinct for each genre. Three genres have many themes common, but jugni has spirituality as dominant theme, dhola has expression of love as dominant them and mahiya has now become quite inclusive, but it originated as expression of love and it still retains that character in its core. The folk heart of Punjab has endeared these three genres so much that these are appreciated far and wide in original tunes, but new experiments of tunes and themes are also underway. Being a true mirror of simple unsophisticated villagers these folk songs would lose popularity if these villagers become sophisticated hence the need for their preservation is highlighted in this study.
