اردو میں خردہ گیری کی روایت

Abstract

Meaning of the word 'animadversion' is strong criticism, a critical or censorious remarks or unfavorable comments. This article will discuss those critical writings in which a piece of writing is analyzed by carrying out all the weaknesses, flaws and defects, and thus it is proved that whether the book under review is valid or totally unreliable. The purpose of this method is to save the critics and researchers of language and literature from misguidance and scattered imagination. Looking at such writings, it may seem as if a fierce critic is pursuing a creator, but the fact is that this method of critique has revealed the actual value of many wellDknown books and authors. Such critics scrutinize an entire book and then present the study and all the shortcomings of the text. Though negative opinions are formed about this kind of criticism but it helps creators, critics and researchers to focus on their workmore carefully. Here are some important examples of animadversions in Urdu which suggest that these critics and researchers boldly captured the personalities and influential institutions of their time. As a result, the status of some books was invalidated and some institutions had to withdraw their publications.
