Description
Summary:The Philosophy Program for Children or Fabak, known worldwide by the acronym (P4C) to improve children's thinking, was presented in 1962 by Lipman, who is a professor at Columbia University. With regard to the components of philosophy for the child and the three literary, intellectual, and psychological competencies, there can be found anecdotes in Persian literature in which at least one or two philosophical themes and concepts appropriate to indigenous culture have been used. Since, according to the objectives of the Philosophy Program for the Child, there must be selected anecdotes that are in line with the standards and principles of Fabak, the two books of Siyasat-Nameh written by Khajeh Nizam al-Molk Tousi and Qaboos-Nameh from Onsor al-Maali Keykavus can be a prominent example of Persian literature in this field. These two books are valuable Persian works, full of ethical concepts and educational teachings expressed in the story. By examining the stories, in line with the features of the Fabak stories, we find that most of the stories in the two books are both engaging and child-friendly in terms of processing as well as themes. In this essay, he has attempted to explain the philosophy program for the child according to the founder of the program, Lipman, and others such as Philip Kam, and to explain the characteristics of intellectual stories. Therefore, content analysis and deductive analysis have been used to do this and to explain the underlying data.
