PECULIARITIES OF PEDAGOGICAL VIEWS IN THE WORKS OF ISHAQ KHAN IBRAT

Abstract

 Is’haqkhan Ibrat left a rich legacy as a poet, historian, linguist and Islamic scholar. A skilled calligrapher who penned seventeen types of letters, he was one of the first Uzbek publishers who founded “Matbaai Ishaqiya” under his own name. He learned four languages perfectly, namely Arabic, Persian, Indo-Urdu and English. Abroad, he had the opportunity to compare and contrast the life, culture and art of Eastern and Western peoples. He closely studied the advanced science of Europe and collected valuable materials for his scientific works. He considered it necessary to know the languages of the peoples of the East as well as the languages of the West, and studied French in Arabia, English in India, and the oldest Phoenician, Jewish, Syrian, and Greek writings. His contemporary, Ibrahim Davron, writes about this: “Mr. Ishaq Khan, a wise man, knows Turkish, Persian, Hindi, and Russian, and is also adept at writing Russian, French, Armenian, and other letters.”
