Abstract

This article deals with the poetic work and the critical literary genre created by Alisher Navai of the XX century in Herat. Navai’s creation on the literary critique genre has presented a new tendency in analyzing the literary works of his contemporaries.For instance, Navai’s “Majalis un-nafais” is a critical literary work devoted mostly to analyzing of scholars’ works written in Persian. The great poet invents two types of critical genre in the Islamic literary world. The author further examines Navai’s critical method-ology as a unique work of art presenting traditional themes and genres. As a result, he became a pioneer of the creative methodology in the Persian literary world.
