        4 - A Sociological Reading of Qazi and His Translations
        Shilan Shafiei

        One  of  the  characteristics  of  the  field  of  translation  studies  that distinguishes it from other fields of knowledge is its inter-disciplinarity. This inter-disciplinarity has two main reasons: The first is the way of its coming to existence which is the result of joining the research fields such as: contrastive analysis, comparative literature, translator training courses and historical research in translation. The second reason is related to the nature of the translation itself. Translation in both meanings i.e. the linguistic product or the process of transferring message from one culture to another has the capacity to be investigated through very different theoretical frameworks and common research techniques in different research fields such as: literature, linguistics, art research, history, philosophy, technology information, training, inter-cultural studies, sociology and etc. The present study is a sociological glance on the works and the personality of Mohammad Qazi from the Bourdieu’s theory of practice perspective. This theory poses the dialectic relationship between Field and Habitus. In the first part of this study, an analysis of the above- mentioned concepts of the theory will be presented; the author next investigates the relationship between these concepts and Qazi and his translations briefly.

        5 - A comparative study of the change of habits with negative/positive capitals in the character of female narrators

        Pierre Bourdieu's theory of types of capital represents capitals and the effect of their types on each other in different ways. In Bourdieu's definition, the types of capital are: "Economic, cultural, social and symbolic capital". This article, with a comparative look at the habits influenced by the capitals of female narrators in the novels "My Bird" and "Forbidden Notebook", examines the effect of capitals on each other and changes the habits of female narrators, and shows with a descriptive-analytical method what effect the habits have on creating They have positive and negative funds. The most obvious negative habits of female actors in novels; Silence, passivity, isolation, submission and satisfaction of the men of the family without the least action and protest are in line with the otherness of the narrator's women and the most specific positive habits; Loyalty, motherhood, sense of responsibility, sacrifice and kindness. As a result, the nature of women's habits has either not changed, or has progressed in the direction of negative and negative production and reproduction, or if there is a slight change in the production and reproduction of positive capitals, it is pale in the shadow of the passivity of the narrators. The comparative result of the research shows the common structural position of two women in two different societies, whose similar and repeated experiences create common traits and habits. These similar behaviors and habits, in turn, give structure to their positive or negative social actions; That is, it sets guidelines and limits their activity. Or in very few social spaces, it removes passivity and limitations. But in the end, the revelation of the women's passivity in the economic fields, the inefficiency of the social spaces (before and after marriage), in the use of social capital, and the poverty of the economic, cultural and symbolic capital in the narrator's women.

        6 - Pierre Bourdieu and the Idea of "Real Democracy": An Introduction to Political Participation in the Interaction Space between Agency and Structure

        Abstract Pierre Bourdieu (1930-2002) is the most prominent figure in the French sociology that put an end to the hegemony of social action and structuralize theories in the field of sociology. He propounded Structural Constructivist Theory of politics through dialectical relationships between "fields" and "habits". Bourdieu's broad socio-anthropological and interrelation approach to power stands as opposed to the traditional academic political science discipline which emphasizes on the actual and objective operation of the political institutions (one of the legacies of the behavior list school) as well as on the more visible aspects of governing operations (elections, laws, policies, parties, etc). By contrast, Bourdieu as a sociologist and anthropologist approached the topic of power by stressing the social and cultural bases of power at the micro-as well as macro- levels. Naturally, this complicated view may not neglect analyzing electoral and democratic politics as doxa (dominated common belief) in political filed. Based on his critical view to current electoral democracies, Bourdieu emphasizes that delegation of power and political representation, despite the presence of the media and the press, inevitably leads to usurpation and manipulation of democracy. What does Bourdieu suggests as an alternative to representative democracies as a dominated doxa in political field? Bourdieu propounds the idea of "Real Democracy" which includes different dialectical categories as an alternative way to democratization of democracy in current societies.    Manuscript profile

        7 - Bourdieuian Analysis of literary production field of Shahnameh and Ferdowsi’s habitus

        Abstract This research is an attempt to apply Bourdieu’s integrated structuralist theory in order to examine the extent of influence of literary production field in the 4th century taken as object, and also study the impact of Ferdowsi’s disposition regarded as a subject in the composition of the most important Persian national epic.  After examining the aforementioned field and studying the impact ofsocial, economic, cultural, and symbolic capitals on Ferdowsi’s habitus, this result is reached that there exists a dialectic relationship between the literary production field in the 4th century closely connected with the political field under the Samanids rule with the active habitus which did not lead him towards the vulgar teachings, instead had led him to use Persian national narratives in order to undertake the composition of Shahnameh.  Employing descriptive analytic approach in this article it was found out that, Ferdowsi’s strategy was under the influence of collective habitus in his time which in turn emanated from the political structure of Samanids and his individual habitus was affected by the symbolic and cultural capital and also his Dehghan class.  All these factors had persuaded him to incline towards preservation of the Persian language and Persian national identity.  It was further proved that Abu Mansur Abd al-Razzaq and his companions had a great role in providing the milieu in which a project such as the writing of the Shahnameh could be realized.
