Identity is an important factor that shapes the townscape. A townscape is a collection of natural and man-made factors that have been formed under the influence of special natural, cultural, social and economic characteristics of that given town and it's the place of materialization of the special characteristics of that town. On the other hand, urban spaces can be reminded people the symbolic aspects of culture and history. In facing with the appearance of modern towns, one sees a crisis caused by the disproportion of spaces to their current functions, composition of inconsistent uses, uniformity and lack of dynamism in urban spaces. This paper describes the concept of identity and culture. In terms of cultural identity can affect the townscape and the face of the city. Research Objectives: 1- What factors play a role in physical identity of Iranian historical cities? 2- How can the component “culture” influence on the physical identity of Iranian cities? 3- Can the cultural identity components of cities be proposed as the landmarks and signs in the historical cities?

Results: The results of this study show that the towns have an appearance in which uniformity of the urban fabrics, inconsistency between the apparent form of the space and its meaning, inattention to the notion of form and meaning in our culture is observable and consequently, there are forms that have no meaning. In addition, research suggests that the consequences of belonging to a place in the Iranian city of proving spatial identity. So, the components of cultural identity of the city can be considered as signs or landmarks of the historical cities. Urban semiotics are considered as a valuable tool for the representation of the cultural identity components in urban areas. According to the results, the following suggestions can be considered in the cultural sphere of urban design: 1- Recreating and revival Iranian historical cities with respect to the cities’ natural, synthetic and human identity components. 2- Strengthening of historical cities’ textures interoperability with the approach of regeneration of cultural identity components of cities. 3- Locating of urban landmarks and elements of town squares as a contiguous cognitive and perceptual map for strengthening the cities’ cultural components. 4- Taking advantage of peoples’ memories and appropriate concepts to design of signs, landmarks and elements. 5- Creating the cultural spaces with the appropriate functioning of the cultural dynamics of neighborhoods and cities. 6- Highlight the urban elements and landmarks form with the proper use of materials and colors appropriate to the climate and the cultural identity of each city.

The continuity of life for a language vocabularies usually related to the incompatibility of different language levels of that tongue, based on this some of the poets resort to the art of Art of metaphor, While consolidating placement of vocabularies in the language, to keep away any hastily Speculation. The intention of the writer from word identification is to pale or sometimes even disappear the certain meaning of vocabularies which results in considering metaphor. Hafez is one of the kinds of poets who, not only revived some of the words from black holes of aberration, rather with a new representation of its own age with the utilization of continuity based approach; built a new cultural and social model. In this regard in his verse, we meet multiple words such as: <<anywhere, Sore eyes, open mouth, Conspicuous, Ostentatious, Round rep and etc is meant wild >>.

U.S. Troops on the mission are accompanied by a scientific team led by Dr. Grace Augustine. They try to send Jake Sully, the paraplegic solider, into the aborigines’ community via an artificial body made out of human and Na’vi DNAs, called “Avatar” to study aborigines and possibly convince them to surrender peacefully. Yet, this never happens as Colonel Miles Quaritch, the military commander, chooses to accomplish the mission by force. The war between intruders and inhabitants brings about a huge amount of environmental damage and oppression of resisting people, especially the women. At the heart of war, Cameron projects the love story of Jake and Neytiri from Pandora leading to Jake’s disillusionment with reality of life in Pandora. Avatar, rich in theme and subject matter reconstructs the history of discovery and colonisation of Australia and brings to the fore concerns of contemporary man including the consumption of natural resources, eco-devastation, and man-woman relationship which is cast into the framework of science fiction. In this sense, a virtual image-body that represents individuals in computer-generated terrains provides a reference to the future of virtual technology and an implication to the rise of new political powers from Asia.

In addition to the ontological and causal problems posed by the mind-body issue, this issue faces mental issues with important questions such as the nature of personal identity and its relation to the body and the brain. The inability of theories in explanation due to mental and physical characteristics has led some to raise the issue of returning to the Aristotelian interpretation of mind or soul as body form. In spite of the many criticisms that Aristotle's theory posed, how he faced the problem of mind-body it helps us, to answer questions about what constitutes mental phenomena and physical states, and how is the interaction of our body and mind. His views also have many strengths points in solving the problem of personal identity. Manuscript profile -

Although Zionism and Judaism are not equal; because some Jews are political anti-Zionists and some non-Jews are also Zionists; However, Jews are the dominant aspect of Zionism. Jews do not have a single identity. The main question of the article is: What is the view of the American Jews and the Jews living in the occupied territories of Palestine towards the ideals of Zionism? The hypothesis of the article is formulated using the results of the Pew Survey Institute as follows: Jews living in America and the occupied territories, due to their identity sources and different life experiences, have different views in terms of believing in the ideals of Zionism, adhering to the beliefs and rituals of Judaism, and the performance of the Zionist regime.This difference of opinion has led to a variety of political actions, including a reduction in the immigration of American Jews to the Occupied Territories. International Zionism, while tacitly acknowledging this difference, sees Jewish influence in American and even world politics as complementary to the migration of Jews from other parts of the world to the occupied territories, and seeks to reduce these differences. The main purpose of this article is to open a new direction in Zionist studies and to explain the real gaps between the Jewish communities, especially the United States, and the Occupied Territories, and to make policy recommendations in this regard.

Therefore, with the aim of finding the main basis of identity in the formation of the Islamic Revolution, this research seeks to find the main axis of the formation of the Islamic Revolution of Iran in the framework of the historical identity of Iranians. This article proposes the hypothesis that "Identity development in Iran by using modern elements and concepts and injecting Islamic content into it was able to prepare the mentality of the formation of the Islamic Revolution. It tries to explain the mentioned hypothesis by descriptive-analytical method and using Paul Ricoeur's "narrative identity" theory. The obtained findings show that Behsan religion is a historical current and with occasional ups and downs, it is the center of identity development in Iran, and it has shown positive and negative reactions against the external and internal elements of identity, according to their religious or anti-religious content, that the acceptance of Islam and The formation of the Islamic revolution is one of the positive points and confronting the attack of Alexander, the Mongols and the failure of constitutionalism are the results of the negative reactions of religious identity in Iran. As a result of digesting the elements of modernity, the Islamic revolution was manifested in the concept of "returning to oneself" which was interpreted and supported by concepts such as reason, self-awareness, freedom, equality, liberation, revolution and change. With this description, the final result of the research is that the religious identity digested the modern elements and used them to shape the Islamic revolution. Manuscript profile
