بهروز اتونی According to Carl Gustav Jung, The Archetypal themes (like creation and death) and images (like mountain and numbers) are rooted in basic archetypes. The self, the shadow, the anima, the animus, and persona are the main archetypes. In "mythological criticism of More According to Carl Gustav Jung, The Archetypal themes (like creation and death) and images (like mountain and numbers) are rooted in basic archetypes. The self, the shadow, the anima, the animus, and persona are the main archetypes. In "mythological criticism of depth", it is necessary to use these archetypes for analyzing and decoding of myths. In literature and literary critical texts, they are not analyzed from mythological criticism point of view. The present article tries to study the function of one of these archetypes, namely the animus, in epic myths, especially Shāhnāmeh, from mythological criticism point of view. Manuscript profile -

As a matter of fact, alienation is not entirely a characteristic of the contemporary age. In Persian Literature the concept of alienation has been proposed and discussed by Islamic mystics long before the dawn of the modern era. Mowlānā Jalāl-al Din Balkhī, in his six books of Masnavi-e Manavi, speaks about alienation and metamorphosis from a mystical point of view. Manuscript profile -

It refers to old images and instincts rooted in our collective unconscious. An archetype reveals itself in dreams and myths. There is a close connection between an archetype and the mythical and epic stories in which it appears. In the present article, the shadow, one of Jungian main archetypes, has been analyzed in some works of Attār-e Neishābūri (1145-1221), Persian poet and mystic, such as Asrār-Nāmeh, Manteq al-Teyr (The Conference of the Birds), Elāhī-Nāmeh, and Mosībat Nāmeh.

فاطمه مدرسی مونا همتی مریم عرب Shat’hiyāt are words uttered when one is in a state of divine ecstasy; they are results of a new understanding of God, man and Islamic laws (shariyyat).

Ecstatic expressions (shat’hiyāt) have a regular linguistic structure but they are paradoxical, sometimes surprising the audience unfamiliar with the terms. The present article tries to study the ecstatic expressions (shat’hiyāt) of Eyn-ol Qozāt-e Hamedānī (1098–1131), a Persian mystic. His shat’hiyāt about recognition of unity of God by Satan, vision of God, faith and unfaith, annihilation and subsistence eventually led to his execution. Manuscript profile -

This More Can Nezāmī Ganjavī (1141-1209), like Sanā'ī Ghaznavi, Attār-e Neishābūri and Mowlānā Jalāl-al Din Balkhī, be called a mystic poet? Is he an official mystic or is he just a poet who entertains mystic thoughts beside other subjects in his works? This article, after having answered the above questions, will discuss the reflection of Nezāmī's mystical thoughts in his life and poems. Then, his view toward his contemporary mystic traditions, disciplined Sufi practices, piety and renunciation of the world (all of which are figured prominently in his works) are examined. Finally, it will be concluded that Nezāmī, unlike Sanā'ī, Attār, and Mowlānā is not a mystic poet. Manuscript profile
