        2 - Encountering Architecture as an Event for Derrida
        Sharareh Teimouri Shamsolmolok Mostafavi

        Although it seems that deconstruction disintegrates everything, it provides a basis for everything in Derrida's philosophy. As Derrida defines deconstruction on collapsing and rebuilding, event has no exception to this definition. Events, like Derrida's other discussions, are so intertwined that we cannot distinguish between them. But what is the event, and why is it an internal matter that takes credit from our internal and intuition? Why is it artificial? Derrida considers architecture to be an event type, and the style of deconstruction in architecture is an event definer? Thus, the explanation of Derrida's view of the event and its relation to art and architecture are manifested in features such undeconstructible, unpredictability of the event. For Derrida, therefore, the event is an instantaneous that even defines architecture in a "moment," and only from this dimension can it reach a consensus with architecture. In addition, deconstruction style in architecture takes us out of the ordinary cognition of form and space, and it can be an objective example of the subject of occurrence in architecture.

        3 - An Ontological Approach to Jacques Derrida’s Reading of Rum Surah: Benefited from Ayatollah Javdi Amuli’s Persian Exegesis
        Maryam Sultanbeyad Rouhieh Naziripour Muhammad Hassan Borhanifiar

        To present a democratic reading of The Qur’an, Derrida introduces it as a book of hospitality and unconditional forgiveness. However, he considers The Prophet (PBUH) an exemption from this rule of hospitality. His reading of The Qur’an has not yet been examined by the scholars. The aim of this study is to investigate the reason for Derrida’s reading of The Qur'an and its separation from The Prophet (PBUH). In this descriptive-analytical- comparative method, the concepts considered by Derrida in the text of The Qur'an are examined and the epistemological status of The Prophet is analyzed on the base of the text itself. In this regard, "ontological" reading of the text of The Qur'an is used, which considers the text independent of the reader and writer. This reading is comparable to Derrida’s “deconstructive” reading since deconstruction emerged from ontological approach. This approach is similar to Allameh Tabatabai’s “Quran to Qur’an” approach which is suitable for Qur’anic studies. To avoid reducing the text of The holy Qur’an to a literary text the findings of the study in compared with the learned exegesis of Ayatollah Javadi Amuli. The findings of this study demonstrates that Derrida has ignored evidences in the text contradicting his reading, and as a result he has found the actions of The Prophet (PBUH) contrary to The Qur’an.

        4 - Binary Oppositions in the Structure of Ḵāqāni Šervāni’s Poetry

        Developing the imagery and imagism in poetry implies exploiting all capacities of language. One of the means of producing and developing imagery is to consider the contrastive nature of lexemes in culture and language.Based on the contrastive theory of language, when mind encounters a signified, the mental popularity of one is transferred to the popularity of the second. Hence the relation between words, expressions and signs in a language system and structure is revealed.  In most cases a network of various images, obtained from different fields of science and skills, has been closely intertwined in Ḵāqāni's poetry. Contrastive relation is one of the main factors in this network, which strongly functions in horizontal axis of Ḵāqāni's poetry. This structural pattern in Ḵāqāni's poetry has been investigated and classified in different scopes, in order to find a way to the mind world and poetic thoughts of Ḵāqāni.   Manuscript profile

        Moniro Ravani Pour has surprised the reader via interacting between the outer (real) world with the inner world (story) in «The Gypsy by the fire »Novel. This essay has been attempted to survey Moniro Ravani Pour's «The Gypsy by the fire »Novel via anti-infrastructure critical point of view. Anti-infrastructure critique has been formed basis of Derrida's theory. Firstly it has been applied in philosophy then in literary criticism. Anti-infrastructure critique is based on bilateral confrontation and it has been discussed abut them to discover contradictions, eventually to reject accepted           pre-assumptions.These searches lead to uncertainty of accepted believes that they already were certain. The confrontation in this novel is basis on the outer world (real world) with the inner world (story). Sometimes in the novel, the world outside and the inner world will appears eventually. According to antiinfrastructure Derrida's theory, bipolar inner/outer world mean together eventually.I seems that inner and outer world of novel become permeable To the extent that Distinction between them will be impossible. In this paper, the research methodology is a descriptive-analytic type , It is based on a study of the novel, its analysis and description that has been presented basis of a dramatic critique of Derrida.

        6 - Teaching of thinking as a writing, on the basis of Derrida’s critique on Foucault’s reading of the relation between reason and madness in Descartes' "Cogito"

        The concept of thinking is one of the important issues in epistemology that philosophers and epistemologists have expressed different views on the nature of thinking and how relates to the reason. In this paper, we reconstruct the concept of thinking from Derrida's point of view through his critique on Foucault's reading of Descartes' "Cogito" and how relates to education. According to Foucault, Descartes excludes madness from thought, while Derrida believes that in Cogito, madness is only one case of thought (within thought). In Derrida's reading, Cogito is a zero point in which reason and madness are intertwined. While Foucault interprets Descartes as saying; I think, therefore I'm not mad, Derrida understands him as saying; Whether I am mad or not, Cogito, sum. Derrida, on the other hand, acknowledges that thinking is a kind of writing. Thinking; or the writing itself is possible only due to the absences and impossible situations, and rationality is possible only due to the irrationality, that is, madness. Derrida's writing is also made possible by a double connection with the teacher, Foucault's teaching; the teacher first of all, educates the students by providing the appropriate knowledge and way of thinking, and then the students challenge the teacher to think for themselves and create their unique voice.
