To this end, the correlation of verb/object order was examined with the adpositional phrase and the results were compared based on the aforesaid approach. The research question investigated the correlation between adposition and verb/object order in each of these three varieties. First, the data collection was carried out through a semi-structured interview that was devised based on a questionnaire including a compilation of 66 Persian sentences that were translated into Taleshi, Gilaki, and Tati during interviews with 10 elderly illiterate and semi-literate speakers, respectively, from Hashtpar, Bandar Anzali, and Rostamabad of the Province of Gilan for each variety. Then, the transcriptions were examined in terms of diversity in adpositions, including two categories of preposition and postposition. The findings of the study indicated a strong correlation between the order of verbs and objects with postpositions.

  • Causes of the Rise and Flourishing of Civilizations
    www.ijcrt.org © 2021 IJCRT | Volume 9, Issue 5 May 2021 | ISSN: 2320-2882 Causes of the rise and flourishing of civilizations Habibullah hazem Abstract A cursory glance at human history makes it very clear that civilizations are born as human beings, reach maturity and growth, and collapse and die due to more internal causes. The death of civilizations is something that history has talked about a lot and it is called forgotten civilizations. In the science of history and more in the philosophy of history, the issue of how the causes and factors of the emergence, flourishing and destruction of civilizations are mentioned and history analysts study these causes and factors. According to them, the mentioned causes and factors are natural and in the field of events related to natural and human laws. But in intra-religious analysis, looking at causes and factors is done from another angle; The Qur'an, with the aim of guiding human beings, looks at events from an educational point of view. On this basis, each of the events is closely related to the issues of punishment and encouragement of human beings and finds meaning and meaning with monotheism and its belongings. Although it is necessary to look at the events and their causes from the perspective of philosophy of history and natural traditions and laws, but these traditions are closely related to human actions and behavior. In a comprehensive analysis, although earthquakes, floods and other natural disasters are related to natural laws, but human actions are effective in its creation and emergence, and these actions can have a positive and negative impact on natural laws and nature.

The bird names have been listed and classified according to the scientific codes. An etymological study has been presented for scientific names, including genus and species. If it was possible we have provided the etymology of Persian and Gilaki native names of the birds. According to our best knowledge, there was no previous report gathering and describing the ornithological fauna of this part of the world. Gilan province, due to its meteorological circumstances and the richness of its animal life has harbored a wide range of animals. Therefore, the nomenclature system used by the natives for naming the animals, specially birds, has a prominent stance in this country. Many of these local and dialectal names of the birds have been entered into standard language of the country (Persian language). The study has presented majority of comprehensive list of the Gilaki bird names, categorized according to the ornithological classifications.

  • On the Modern Politicization of the Persian Poet Nezami Ganjavi
    Official Digitized Version by Victoria Arakelova; with errata fixed from the print edition ON THE MODERN POLITICIZATION OF THE PERSIAN POET NEZAMI GANJAVI YEREVAN SERIES FOR ORIENTAL STUDIES Edited by Garnik S. Asatrian Vol.1 SIAVASH LORNEJAD ALI DOOSTZADEH ON THE MODERN POLITICIZATION OF THE PERSIAN POET NEZAMI GANJAVI Caucasian Centre for Iranian Studies Yerevan 2012 Siavash Lornejad, Ali Doostzadeh On the Modern Politicization of the Persian Poet Nezami Ganjavi Guest Editor of the Volume Victoria Arakelova The monograph examines several anachronisms, misinterpretations and outright distortions related to the great Persian poet Nezami Ganjavi, that have been introduced since the USSR campaign for Nezami‖s 800th anniversary in the 1930s and 1940s. The authors of the monograph provide a critical analysis of both the arguments and terms put forward primarily by Soviet Oriental school, and those introduced in modern nationalistic writings, which misrepresent the background and cultural heritage of Nezami. Outright forgeries, including those about an alleged Turkish Divan by Nezami Ganjavi and falsified verses first published in Azerbaijan SSR, which have found their way into Persian publications, are also in the focus of the authors‖ attention. An important contribution of the book is that it highlights three rare and previously neglected historical sources with regards to the population of Arran and Azerbaijan, which provide information on the social conditions and ethnography of the urban Iranian Muslim population of the area and are indispensable for serious study of the Persian literature and Iranian culture of the period. ISBN 978-99930-69-74-4 The first print of the book was published by the Caucasian Centre for Iranian Studies in 2012.

  • A Contribution to the Study of the Persian Concept of Âberu 113
    A Contribution to the Study of the Persian Concept of Âberu 113 Magdalena Zaborowska* PL ISSN 02398818 HEMISPHERES Vo l. 29, No. 1, 2014 A Contribution to the Study of the Persian Concept of Âberu Abstract The concept of âberu is one of those key concepts in Iranian culture which are very hard to define. In this paper the author attempts to explain its philosophical meaning, both by philological analysis based on dictionary sources and by placing it within the context of Iranian, pre-Islamic and Islamic culture. Emphasizing the bond between the idea of water and the concept of âberu, as well as defining it as veil woven from values and principles that protects humans; thus enables an understanding of its significant status among Iranians in contemporary culture. Because loss of âberu or its destruction is commonly understood in the terms of a threat to life, many actions undertaken by Iranians are motivated by the desire to preserve it. Since various methodological approaches can be applied to the study of the concept of âberu, this article should be viewed only as an small contribution to reviling its complexity. There is no doubt that understanding another culture requires familiarizing oneself with its fundamental concepts. While representatives of a particular culture often refer to such concepts and ideas in an attempt to facilitate intuition for others they usually remain unintelligible and unclear. Grasping their meaning is a difficult task as most of them are culturally rooted and refer to cultural experience. Decoding these ideas may however help in understanding how people think, with reference to their value systems and beliefs.

  • The Poetics of Commitment in Modern Persian: a Case of Three Revolutionary Poets in Iran
    The Poetics of Commitment in Modern Persian: A Case of Three Revolutionary Poets in Iran by Samad Josef Alavi A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Near Eastern Studies in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in Charge: Professor Shahwali Ahmadi, Chair Professor Muhammad Siddiq Professor Robert Kaufman Fall 2013 Abstract The Poetics of Commitment in Modern Persian: A Case of Three Revolutionary Poets in Iran by Samad Josef Alavi Doctor of Philosophy in Near Eastern Studies University of California, Berkeley Professor Shahwali Ahmadi, Chair Modern Persian literary histories generally characterize the decades leading up to the Iranian Revolution of 1979 as a single episode of accumulating political anxieties in Persian poetics, as in other areas of cultural production. According to the dominant literary-historical narrative, calls for “committed poetry” (she‘r-e mota‘ahhed) grew louder over the course of the radical 1970s, crescendoed with the monarch’s ouster, and then faded shortly thereafter as the consolidation of the Islamic Republic shattered any hopes among the once-influential Iranian Left for a secular, socio-economically equitable political order. Such a narrative has proven useful for locating general trends in poetic discourses of the last five decades, but it does not account for the complex and often divergent ways in which poets and critics have reconciled their political and aesthetic commitments. This dissertation begins with the historical assumption that in Iran a question of how poetry must serve society and vice versa did in fact acquire a heightened sense of urgency sometime during the ideologically-charged years surrounding the revolution.

  • A Study of Common Expressions in English and Farsi Languages and Their Equivalents in Gilaki Dialect in North of Iran
    ================================================================= Language in India www.languageinindia.comISSN 1930-2940 Vol. 17:4 April 2017 ================================================================= A Study of Common Expressions in English and Farsi languages and Their Equivalents in Gilaki Dialect in North of Iran Mohammad Kazemian Sana'ati, Ph.D. Candidate in TEFL Farhad Passandyar, Ph.D. Candidate in TEFL Davood Mashadi Heidar Islamic Azad University, Tonekabon Branch, Tonekabon, Iran ======================================================================== Abstract The Gilaki dialect belongs to the north-western group of Iranian languages. The Gilaki dialect is spread along the southern shore of the Caspian Sea in one of the northern provinces of Iran known as Guilan. The native speakers of the language call themselves Gilaks and their dialect Gilaki. In Guilan province, Gilaki is the vernacular language of some three million people mostly born in central and eastern Guilan province. The present study focuses on the commonalities in expressions used in English, Farsi and Gilaki. To conduct the study, 50 people from all walks of life from Langroud, Eastern Guilan, were interviewed. The expressions uttered in Gilaki were then analyzed and compared in meaning with their nearest equivalents in English and Farsi languages. The study showed that Gilaki satisfied the criteria necessary to be considered a language rather than a dialect. Keywords: Guilan, Gilaks, and Gilaki expressions 1. Introduction Guilan province lies along the Caspian Sea, west of Mazandaran Province, east of Ardabil Province, and north of Zanjan and Qazvin Provinces in Iran. Moreover, it borders the Republic of Azerbaijan in the north and Russia across the Caspian Sea. According to Kiyafar (2013,P. 11), "Guilan is very rich culture dates back to 7000 years ago.

Journal of History Culture and Art Research, 6(3), 1158-1175. doi:http://dx.doi.org/10.7596/taksad.v6i3.986 The Effect of Tolerance on Balancing Social Relations in Terms of Molana’s Point of View in Masnawi Ghasem Yaghubinezhad Kalesara*1, Parvindokht Mashoor2 Abstract Fresh perceptions and variations in concepts introduced by Molana are among the beautiful effects of Masnavi. It is full of various ploys and mystical paraphrases which imply a new meaning in social issues. In this paper, after a short study of tolerance and its background in Islamic culture and western civilization, it has been discussed socially in Molana’s period. The researchers try to explain tolerance on the basis of two standpoints, by believing that it has a deep influence on balancing human relations. Firstly, we want to know if it is a heavenly or a secular issue since our mystical works talk about an inner source while modern thought is focused on the scientific and experiential roots of wisdom. But in the second step we investigate the relationship between the tolerance and its benefit for the human social rights. Although Molana’s attitude in most of Masnavi’s poems relies on the traditional points of view, this study has realized his mind clarity and vigilance and has come to valuable deductions.

  • Tasnif Genre and Structural Analysis in Tasnifs of Aref Ghazvini
    Tasnif Genre and Structural Analysis in Tasnifs of Aref Ghazvini Ali Pedram Mirzaei Assistant Professor, Department of Persian Literature, Payame Noor University, P.O.Box 19395-4697, Iran Mostafa Gorji Professor, Department of Persian Literature, Payame Noor University, P.O.Box 19395-4697, Iran Mostafa Jouzi PhD student, Department of Persian Literature, Payame Noor University, P.O.Box 19395-4697, Iran Abstract: Linkage and relationship between poetry and music has old age and long record of history. The most beautiful and excellent glorious sign of this linkage can be sought in tasnif. This linkage is rooted as some researchers believe that poetry in Iran was nothing but tasnif before Islam and life of poetry was accompanied by music. The Constitution period is the era of real manifestation and evolution and elevation of tasnif. The Constitution period is the era of real manifestation and evolution and elevation of tasnif. Among them, Aref Ghazvini has had special role in ingenuity and prosperity of this effective and public literary type.
