Reviewing the Goals of “Young Iran’s Association” According to Cultural and Social Reformation in the Late Ghajars and its Role in Formation of “Jafar Khan has come from Europe” a Play by Hasan Moghadam

اين مقاله مي كوشد به تبيين نقش "انجمن ايران جوان" در اصلاحات فرهنگي و اجتماعي اواخر دوران قاجار و همچنين فعاليت حسن مقدم در اين انجمن كه به خلق و اجراي نمايشنامه جعفرخان از فرنگ آمده منتهي شد، بپردازد. پس از انقلاب مشروطه و در راستاي تجددگرايي، انجمن ها و تشكل هاي متعددي شكل گرفتند كه هدف اصلي آنها اصلاحات و تغييرات نوگرايانه در ايران بود. در سال 1300 شمسي، انجمني به نام "سروش دانش" كه چندي بعد به "ايران جوان" تغيير نام يافت، تشكيل شد. انجمن متشكل از افراد تحصيل كرده و داراي انديشه اي بود كه دستيابي به اهداف خود را عمدتا در راستاي فعاليتهاي فرهنگي و هنري و مطبوعاتي پايه ريزي ميكردند و خط مشي خود را در مرامنامهاي انتشار ميدادند. توجه به حقوق زنان و امكان تحصيل آنها از ديگر ديدگاه هايي بود كه اعضاء انجمن آن را به عنوان يكي از اهداف مهم خود برميشمردند. خرابيهاي تهران و ديگر شهرهاي ايران، اختلاف شديد طبقاتي، فقر و فلاكت مردم رعيت و كارگر و نبود امكانات كافي تحصيل براي كودكان و نوجوانان، به شكل يك دغدغه جدي براي انجمن ايران جوان مطرح بود. فرهنگ سنتي مردم از يك سو و انتقاد از تقليد كوركورانه فرهنگ غربي از سوي ديگر، دستمايه اي براي خلق نمايشنامه جعفرخان از فرنگ آمده توسط حسن مقدم شد و انجمن ايران جوان آن را در تالار گراند هتل تهران به اجرا رساند. نتيجه اينكه انجمن در راستاي اهداف برگزيده خود، با برگزاري سمينار با موضوعات روز، چاپ روزنامه و مقاله، اجراي نمايشهاي موفقي از جمله جعفرخان از فرنگ آمده كه نام آن به عنوان ضرب المثل در بين مردم رواج يافت و نقدهاي بسيار درخشاني از نشريات معتبر آن دوران دريافت كردند، در جهت تجددگرايي در جامعه نفوذ كرد و نه تنها مورد توجه روشنفكران و سياسيون قرار گرفت، بلكه جايگاه خود را در ميان توده مردم نيز تثبيت كرد و آنها را با خود همسو كرد.
