Abstract
Dr. Jamil Jalbi (1929-2019), in his criticisms, has not only made theoretical arguments on the subject of "Amalgam of Research and Criticism" but in practice laid the foundation for his critical theory "Amalgamative Style". The artistic style of his History of Urdu Literature (TARIKH-E-ADAB-E-URDU) can be described as the masterpiece of the creative amalgam of research, criticism, culture and linguistics. From this point of view, Jalbi's Criticisms is the most balanced form of two extremes of traditional research and criticism. Although he calls his style a "New Criticism", it would not be strange to call his style "a modern amalgamation". He has devised a new way of transcending the traditional style of Criticism in Urdu literature. Studying his criticisms, it turns out that his theoretical and applied criticism are incompatible. He considers research and criticism to be interdependent. Not only he promotes an amalgam of research and criticism, he also emphasizes the integration of non-literary sciences. He believes that a critic should benefit from pure scientific and social studies. The more a critic studies, the more his critical insight will grow. In his view, the research process would be weak without critical awareness, and so would the criticism without meaningful research. He understands that it is important for a scholar to have a thorough knowledge of the Eastern and Western traditions. In fact, over time, even more artistic aspects of Jalbi's Criticism may be revealed.
