اردو میں اس روایت کو بھی خاصہ دخل ہے کہ تنقیدوں کی تنقید وضع کی جائیں۔ اس سے انکار نہیں کہ اردو میں تنقید کی روایت مغرب سے آئی ہے اور اسی بندھے ٹکے اصولوں پر اب بھی تنقیدی ادب کا سفر جاری ہے۔ گویا یہ کام بھی کم اہم نہیں کہ ماہرین اور مشاہیر کے تنقیدی ادب پر توجہ دی جائے۔ زیر نظر کتاب ’تنقیدی مطالعے‘ میں مشاہیر ادب کے تنقیدی کاموں کا جائزہ لیا گیا ہے۔ اس سے تنقیدی ادب کے مطالعے میں طلبا و طالبات کو تنقیدی وسعت کا اندازہ مل سکتا ہے۔
