Abstract

Review:Saeed Naji is one of the activists of the philosophy program for children in Iran who has done a lot of research in this field. One of his most important works is the story of " the Philosopher's Child, Leila ", which he has adapted from the philosophical story " a Child at School, Lisa," by Matthew Lipman, the founder of philosophy for children. He has tried to preserve the structure and philosophical content of this work, to adapt it to our beliefs and culture. To this end, using the methods of adding, deleting, refining, changing the title and matching, has made changes in the content and structure of Lisa's story. Comparison of these two stories shows that the author's emphasis on localization has affected some components of philosophical adequacy such as credibility, philosophical discourse, open end, etc., and by damaging the philosophical function of Leila's story, this story has caused Philosophical adequacy to act weaker than its predecessor.
Keywords: Adaptation, Thought Stories, Lisa Story, Leila Story, Saeed Naji, Matthew Lipman.
