Different Discourses in Nowrouznameh

Abstract

Human Attitude Toward the World is Influenced by the System of Discourse. Text Analysis, better than any other Method, can Show Socio-Cultural Processes in all their Forms, with all their Nature. In this Regard, Laclau and Moff's Discourse, which is Closer to Foucault in some Respects can be Used. This Research Uses a Descriptive-analytical Method and a Discourse Analysis Approach to Analyze and Explain the Discourse fFormulations Applied by Khayyam in Nowruznameh. Using Discourse Articulation Mechanisms, this Study Indicates that the Discourse Followed by Khayam is a Material and Cultural Discourse which Plays a Significant Role in Nowrouz Discourse reproduction. Nowrouz Feast is the Cornerstone of Discourse Around which such Discourse as Medicine, Astronomy and Superstitions are Organized. Among the Discourse Elements of Nowruznameh, the Element of wine, which is Quite Intoxicating, has a Prominent Significance.
