Abstract :
Numerous dialogues between quietism and effort in Masnavi show the importance of these concepts in (Mawlavi) Rumi's thoughts. Bakhtin's theory of polyglossia is based on dialogue. According to him, polyglossiais examination of pro and con ideas in various linguistics types where one voice is not predominate one. This can be a proper theory for considering Rumi’s view about quietism and effort. Based on Bakhtin’s theory of polyglossia, in the present article, ideology, outlook and kind of language of characters in two stories of Masnavi are analyzed. The results show that heteroglossia is prominent in the dialogues referring to the ideology and outlook, but in the dialogues where ideology is lacking it is not so prominent. Yet the narrator gets involved in the dialogues and obtains same results for both kinds of narrations. When the story gains distance from heteroglossia, the narrator is the prevailing voice.
