اُردو میں افسانوی تنقیدکا نیا پیراڈائم اور آصف فرخی

اُردو میں افسانوی تنقیدکا نیا پیراڈائم اور آصف فرخی"عالمِ ایجاد" کی روشنی میں

ایم۔ خالد فیاض

اکیسویں صدی میں سنجیدہ تنقید کا پورا اسٹکچر بدل گیا ہے۔ تھیوری اور فکشن کے حوالے سے بیانیات کے مباحث نے فکشن کی تنقید کا پورا پینترا ہی بدل کر رکھ دیا ہے۔ اس ذیل میں مغرب میں تو بے شمار کام ہو رہا ہے لیکن ہمارے ہاں بھی چند ناقدین ہی سہی کچھ نہ کچھ عمدہ کام کر رہے ہیں۔ ان میں گوپی چند نارنگ، شمس الرحمن فاروقی اور ڈاکٹر وزیر آغا کے بعد قاضی افضال حسین اور شافع قدوائی کی مثالیں تو سامنے کی ہیں جب کہ ڈاکٹر ناصر عباس نیئر نے فکشن کی اب تک جو تنقید کی ہے اُس کا حاوی رجحان یہی ہے۔ آصف فرخی کی افسانوی تنقید کے بارے میں ہم یہ تو نہیں کَہ سکتے کہ وہ سراسر بیانیات کے ڈسپلن کے تابع ہے اور اس تھیوری سے کہیں انحراف نہیں کرتی؛ ہاں مگر اس تنقید کی نمایاں صورت، بیانیات کے بنیادی مباحث سے توانائی ضرور حاصل کرتی ہے۔

کسی فن پارے میں ‘‘کیا’’ ہے کی بحث اب اُس طرح معنویت کی حامل نہیں رہی جیسے اس سے پہلے مسلسل رہی ہے، اب افسانوی تنقید کا بنیادی سروکار ‘‘کیسے’’ سے ہوتا جا رہا ہے۔ مطلب یہ کہ بیانیات کی بحث (جس میں تھیوری کا عمل دخل ہے) میں یہ دیکھا جاتا ہے کہ ایک افسانوی متن کیسے بامعنی بن رہا ہے یا بنتا ہے، یا یہ کہ کیسے ایک تخلیق کار اپنے فن پارے کی سیٹنگ کرتا ہے کہ وہ بامعنی بن جاتا ہے۔ اس ‘‘کیسے’’ کے ساتھ خود بہ خود ‘‘کیوں’’ بھی جڑ جاتا ہے۔ مثلاً اس افسانوی فن پارے میں کیوں یہی طریقۂ کار اختیار کیا گیا۔؟ کیوں ایسی ہی سیٹنگ...

There is major influence of quotes of Sahabaa’h and taa’baeen on Islamic Jurisprudence. A plain study of Fiqh presents the role of tab’aeen and their quotes in method of extraction.

A Study on Helping Teachers Learn and Use the Investigative Approach in Science

The purpose of this study was to find out how teachers could be helped to learn and use the investigative approach in science. Two teachers from the lower secondary school participated in the study and my role was to help them learn and use the investigative approach through joint planning, modelling and reflective practice. The study was conducted in three stages. The pre-intervention stage showed the teachers' current practice in science, the intervention stage where the investigative approach was introduced and the post-intervention stage indicated the impact of the innovation on teachers' teaching to detect change. The research draws on qualitative data sources such as semi-structured interview, participant observations and teachers' reflective journals. Findings revealed that teachers came with their beliefs about the way children learn science and this was because of their experiences as students and the way they taught was a manifestation of their beliefs. The findings also showed that the change process is influenced by teacher beliefs, understanding of the change process and contextual factors such as time, syllabus, and relationships. The study found that working closely with teachers and encouraging them to reflect on their practices in a conducive, supportive environment helps teachers internalise change thus enabling them to attempt and implement the investigative approach to change their practice. The teachers were positive about the innovation and their self-confidence and understanding of the teaching learning process was greatly enhanced.
