Despite their differences, right and left thinkers in the decades preceding the Iranian revolution had a relatively similar understanding of the place of Iran and Islam in the world. This understanding was about both the difference between perception in the East and West and dealt with the particularity of the Iranian Muslim, and considered the Iranian-Islamic experience extending to different parts of the world. This picture of Iran and Islam in the works of conservative and revolutionary thinkers, such as A. Zarrinkoub, A. Fardid, M. Motahhari, Al. Shariati, D. Schayegan, and H. Nasr is studied in the present essay. The central signifier in these narratives about Islam and Iran in response to the question of "we" and "others" is the East-West binary. In other words, Iranian Muslims had to know what their relationship with others (Arab Muslims an Non-Muslim Europeans) is. According to the prevailing narrative of the separation of Iranians from an originally Aryan (or European) identity, Iranians were separated from their identity once at the time of the Arab conquest, and another time in the retardation from the progressive world. Many of these authors tried to solve this problem by several strategies: To resolve the question of the relation between Islam and Iran, they tried to answer this question by constructing a narrative of progress in Islamic tradition. They also emphasized that the conditions of understanding in the East and West are entirely different, and thus showed themselves up as the leaders of progressive method of esoteric and non-argumentative understanding that has been troubled throughout history and has caused the retardation of Muslim and Iranians from their cultural legacy. In this essay, after describing the intellectual atmosphere of Iran in the Pahlavi period, I highlight the common intellectual elements in the work of the above authors. In the end, by reference to a critical perspective and by recourse to postcolonial theory, I will show how this discourse is a non-native construct, based on European hegemonic assumptions.

European's travelogues are important in understanding "another view", in anthropology and cultural-social history studies area. Sufism and Dervishes are one of the prominent topics in European travelogues, especially in the Qajar era. From this perspective, the present research is based on the analysis of the travelogues of the European travelers of the Qajar era, who have described and sometimes analyzed dervishes in their reports. It’s obviously clear that issues such as:Sufi dynasties considering Dervishes as a class, Sufism lineages, and Dervishes' behavior and worldview are often associated with ignorance of Sufism, prejudice, superficial, and incognito. The approach of this research shows the four components of "Oral Dervish Literature", "Beliefs", "Beggary and Unemployment", "External journey", "Spells and Magic". "Using intoxicants and hypnotic substances" are more prominent in western travelogues. A few of these travel writers, including Polak, Browne, and Gobineau, have an Orientalist approach in its research-following sense towards Sufism and have combined it with their observations; Among other things, they have presented reports about the Sufi dynasties of the Qajar era, especially Ahl al-Haq, the origin of Sufism, and Iranian Enlightenment thought. Apart from this, in other travelogues, the spirit of Sufism is often not mentioned. In most of these travelogues, Sufism and mysticism have been relegated to the school of laziness and unrestrainedness, and wandering dervishes and storytellers have been portrayed as addicted to weed and marijuana. The results of the description and analysis of the aforementioned travelogues show that the reports of these travelers about Sufism in the Qajar era has only been narrated in the form of "affected dervishism", along with "generalization", "defects", "strangeness" and " Magnification".

Synesthesia (sensualism) is a kind of deviation from the norm of meaning, which by breaking the normal system of words and creating a concept contrary to the habit, creates literary pleasure in the audience. In this way of writing, the poet shatters the common mental system of the reader or listener by breaking the superficial structure of the words and not their deep structure and creates a new and pristine image to surprise the audience. In this essay, the authors, inspired by the analytical linguistics school of Lakoff and Johnson, have examined the prevalence of descriptive, analytical, and sensuous in Hafez's poems. The following article shows that the feeling in Hafez's poems, in addition to its different types of feeling; It implies different and different semantic concepts. One of the interesting methods in Hafez's poems is the emphasis on a special type of senses in sensing and transferring meaning from the source area to different areas of semantic purposes. By choosing this type of sensation, Hafez has increased the rhetorical and artistic texture of the speech, and in order to enhance the dignity and rank of tangible things and connect the mental and objective worlds, he has paid special attention to objective-abstract sensation.
