Abstract

Analysis of Saʾdi's Philosophical Parresia and Anti-Authoritarian Discourse in the First Chapter of Saʾdi's Bustân
Discourse analysis is a common subject between linguistics and different branches of humanities and social sciences and tries to show the coherence of form and meaning in a text or communication field. Literary texts are one of the most important discourse texts. Discourse analysis in literary works is of significance not only in more accurate knowing of works but also in anthropology, Understanding of communication structures and cogitative foundations of a society. The "anti-authoritarian" discourse, which is an appendage of the term "tyranny" can be found in Persian literary and historical texts with different characteristics, components and titles. The analysis of anti-authoritarian discourse examines the demonstrations of this critical discourse in a semiotic field and an interdisciplinary study. The present study tries to prove the systematic unity of the components of the first chapter of Bustân in Saadi's anti-authoritarian discourse by describing, explaining, interpreting verbal behavior, linguistic usage, rhetorical dimensions, formulation of concepts and components. In the current research, the theories of Foucault and the methods of Norman Fairclough and Theo Van Dyck are used in discourse analysis.
