Maulana Jalaladdin Rumi's Masnavi is an encyclopedia of the Islamic culture of Iran. Because it includes many stories and demonstrates Rumi's thoughtfulness regarding psychological problems of his time, one will have no doubt to admit that Masnavi is a great work of art and literature and has to be pondered on and examined closely. That is why there is an attempt here to study the sexual issues and problems of LGBT, especially due to the fact that such issues have not yet been scrutinized by the Maulana scholars out of the fear of the orthodox reactions of their public or those of the elite audience. The study questions of this project are: which sexual disorders have been implicated by the stories, and what is Rumi's opinion about the people with different sexual identities? The aim of this study is to inspect Maulana's opinion about LGTB and, at the same time, This research shows that different types of sexual disorders have been designated and criticized by Rumi in the form of humor and anecdotes. These include: homosexuality, pedophilia, bestiality, sexual exploitation, castration, exhibitionism. The two sexual unorthodox groups of people who were reproached at Rumi's time are: the Mokhannath and Sa'tari which are now known as transgender. What is interesting is the fact that Rumi considered their sexual differences to be innate and God-given. This is a huge contradiction at the heart of his philosophy that can be examined and clarified.

Wolf is an animal who is found in many parts of the world and it has always attracted human attention to itself for its compatibility with different climates and its unique features in lifestyle and hunting; and it has entered the myths of various tribes. In the myths of many peoples of eastern and western, especially among the Romans, Turks, and Mongols, the wolf has similar functions such as the ancient ancestor, breeding, guiding, fertility, support and protection, etc… and is worshiped as a Totem. But in Iranian mythology, there are no such acts, and very limited tasks are assigned to the wolf. In Persian epic texts, Turanians are often associated with wolves. This comparative study seeks to find the answer to the question of what wolves do in the myths of other nations, and which creatures have these acts in Iranian mythology. According to this study most of these works in Persian mythology are doing by Simurgh; although the similarity between Simurgh and Falcon (Varghan) makes this presence more prominent. Another function that the wolf has in the myths of other nations, it has been seen in lion and Bahram of Persian mythology.

Bohtory is one of the prominent Arab poets in Abbasid era. His poetical works contains many descriptive and praiseworthy poems that deal with Iranian history, culture and art in various forms. According to the content and texture of the word, recreates the great kings, musical instruments, architecture, clothes and names of Iranian cities, etc. Therefore, studying how and why Iranian culture and thinking is better influenced is very important. Therefore, the present study, relying on the intertextuality approach that explores the influence of texts from each other, has considered Iranian history, culture and art as a per- text. Then, the various forms of the presence of this hidden-text in the context of the poems and words are examined better and its implication and semantic levels are analyzed. The result of this study indicates that Bohtory, by mentioning the geography of the land of Iran and mentioning its cities well in his poems, has praised the geography of Iran for welcoming his Iranian praisers. By likening his praises to the Iranian kings and ministers, he forms a descriptive system of Iranian sultans with the meaning of power and monarchy. The poet also pays attention to the types of Iranian art such as music, architecture considers the secret of the permanence of his praise of the Iranians in their efforts to preserve and revive Iranian rituals and customs.

Using Catford’s shifts (1965), this study is an attempt to investigate four English translations by Clarke (1879), Davie (1882), Edwards (1911) and Wickens (1984) of selected poems from the Bustan of Saadi, the eminent Persian poet and writer. Five poems were randomly selected from the Bustan. Every line of the selected poems was investigated by the raters and placed in the related shift type specified by Catford (1965), namely level shift and category shift which in turn includes class shift, unit shift, structural shift, and intrasystem shift. Some lines were placed under more than one shift type as more than one change could be identified in them. The results revealed that the structural shift was the most frequently used shift by the four translators of the poems in the Bustan. Level shift followed by unit shift were the next most frequently used shifts. It was found that the four translators had a somewhat similar trend in terms of using shifts towards translating the selected poems of the Bustan of Saadi. Also, it can be concluded that structural and level shifts were inevitable in some places during the translation process.

From the point of view of reflective hermeneutics, story and anecdote belong to two different discourse worlds. Although no narrative is without action and empty of time, critical analysis of the narrative contrasts the presupposition of the homogeneity of action and its time with the story. Thus, it can be said that the challenge of storytelling is to make language follow the thought and metaphor of understanding and concern of the story, deepening the integration of language and storytelling. What revolves around the present article is presented in its most influential form in the three minutes of time and the story of the French "Paul Ricoeur". Critically analyzing action and time, he says: The close correlation between imitation and plot has caused theorists not to notice the presence of the hidden component of "creation" that fills the story with thought, and its action and representation in The story is equated with the repetition of the action in the story. The latter assumption leads to a neglect of practical configuration and understanding. Using his approaches, the present article compares the narration of "Pir Changi", which is one of the joint stories of Attar and Rumi, in an analytical-content manner, and comes to the conclusion that the story, contrary to the tale, is full of"extroversion", "practical understanding", "autonomy" and "sculpting".

The Karpman Triangle is a social or psychological paradigm that explains the interaction between people in a transaction analysis designed by Stephen Karpman. This paradigm identifies three psychological roles that subconscious individuals typically play in everyday situations; In the drawing model of the Karpman triangle, there are three sides. One side is called the savior, the other side is called the victim, and the other side is called the abuser. Each person has a main role and the most familiar role. Carpman calls this position the starting point. Although everyone has a role that they are most familiar with, when a person is placed on a triangle, he or she automatically rotates through all the situations and changes the maps. A leading article based on a psychoanalytic analytical approach will attempt to explain Tuba's character based on the Karpman triangle. What emerges from the retelling of Tuba's character in the novel is that Tuba's character rotates according to the Karpman triangle. And he moves in all three roles and plays a role in all three positions. It goes from the savior to the victim, and from the victim to the persecutor, in which the wandering is almost repeated and appears more in the role of the persecutor and the victim. Tuba gets stuck in the Carpman triangle and is in fact captivated by mental bases that result in nothing but despair and helplessness.

Language as social phenomena symmetric to conversational change is exposed to change trend to language economy in language making as a most prominent lingual event, especially in modern conversation and somewhat completely different from premodern conversation has seen. In linguistic definitions the rules that governs lingual phonetic and conjugational changes tends to facilitating pronunciation and simplifying form and structure of sentences and phrases in grammar are called rule of spend less energy in speech and writing (language economy).one of the most important effects of this rule on language forms, is going out of formal standards and gradual movement toward spoken language and informal language. Jamalzadeh is one of the first writers that has used spoken language in to his works, and that’s why he has been introduced as a prominent writer. In this article we show that one of the most important reasons that brought jamalzadeh's works to spoken language level is following his mind to language economy rule. According to this we have studied some of language economy processes in different parts of his works such as "Yeki boud Yeki naboud" the first short story of him.

Gertrude Bell, a British tourist, diplomat, and travel writer, spent many years of her life in the Middle Eastern countries such as Iran, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Jordan and Palestine. Not only was she a literary figure, for writing several travelogues and translating selected sonnets of Hafiz into English, but also her writings served as a cover and excuse for further activities in favor of the British government. In this regard, her travelogue The Desert and the Sown (1907) is of importance. Not only did this travelogue become very popular in Europe, but also it can be argued that it guaranteed the situation of the occupation of Palestine and the British imperialist and interventionist policies in the coming decades of the twentieth century in the Middle East. Therefore, this study examines and analyzes the aforementioned travelogue through Edward Said’s theory of Orientalism and new historicist practice in order to analyze and evaluate its Oriental discourse which consists of otherization of Arabs and cultural superiority of the Westerners over the Easterners. According to the Edward Said's orientalism critical perspective we conclude that Bell was not neutral when she faces with middle east and eastern culture. As a result, it seems that she was a political woman more than a sole writer and she tries to colonize the eastern countries.

Imitation by image, behavior, display and speech that had exited in the culture of some ancient nations represents a kind of belief in the unity with the phenomena and the sanctity of being through this imitation. Plato used this term to design literary theory and to oppose the poetry. The influence of the Mimesis theory has caused to a plan of this theory in every period of history of the literary critique of Europe and the Islamic world, and different views on this theory led to new ideas. The aim of this paper is to explain the agent role of poet in creating poetry based on Mimesis theory in terms of Plato, Aristotle, and New Platonism's viewpoint by a comparative study through a library study and a descriptive-analytic method. Meanwhile, the viewpoints of some thinkers such as Democritus, Sydney, Coleridge, Benedetto Croce, Walter Benjamin, Theodore Adorno, Gadamer were also discussed and comparatively studied. This comparative study shows that the actual role of the poet, according to Mimsis's theory, is a negative and detrimental role of truth in Plato's view. But Plotinus consider the active role of the artist as cultivation, understanding and the power of visualization and expression. Aristotle consider the poet to play the active role of discovering and constructing the angles of a poetic creation plan. The poet's actual role is based on Adorno-Benjamin's readings of this theory of assimilation with nature and, in Gadamader's view, recognition.
