A comparative reading of the social and political satire in the works of Abu al-Fadl Zrui Nasrabad and Ahmad Rajab (The tadhk: خوانش تطبیقی طنز اجتماعی – سیاسی در آثار ابوالفضل زرویی نصرآباد و احمد رجب(مورد مطالعه: تذکرة المقامات زرویی و نصف كلمة احمد رجب)
...Show More Authors

           Satire is genre of the literary arts that has always been the source of human interest. Because  it is difficult to accept direct criticism, Satire appears as a literary tool in which vices, follies, abuses and shortcomings are held up to ridicule, with the intent of shaming individuals, corporations, government, or society itself into improvement. A satirical critic usually employs irony to attain this goal. Although satire is usually meant to be humorous, its greater purpose is often profitable social criticism, using wit to draw attention to both particular and broader issues in society .In such cases, humor is not an entertainment, but a means through which a problem is being exposed in a rather indirect way. Abu al-Fadl Zrui Nasrabad and Ahmad Rajab are two of the famous satirists in Iran and Egypt who have used satire to expose the follies, immoralities and the defects of their societies. The present study discusses The tadhkirat Al- Maqamat of Abu al-Fadl Zrui Nasrabad and Half a Word for Ahmad Rajab in an analytical and descriptive manner and deals with the arts and styles of the two satirists. The conclusion sums up that satire is one of the most distinguished features of the two writers in their prose, and by using the language of satire, they are also able to criticize ,in a large way, the issues and problems that exist in Iranian and Egyptian society indirectly.

چکیده

طنز یکی از فنون ادبی است که همواره مورد توجه انسان بوده است. در بسیاری اوقات، اوضاع و شرایط حاکم بر جامعه به گونه‌ای است که جامعه، ظرفیت تحمل و شنیدن صریح انتقادات را ندارد و به ناچار، باید از ابزاری دیگر برای نمایاندن مشکلات و کمبودها بهره برد. در چنین مواردی، طنز به میدان می‌آید و هنرمند طنزپرداز با استفاده از شگرد سخریه و طنزپردازی، این هدف را به انجام می‌رساند. خنده‌ای که در اثر طنز بروز می‌کند، خنده‌ای از سر شادی نیست، بلکه چون در طنز، مشکلات موجود که قابلیت بیان صریح آن نیست به صورتی غیر مستقیم بیان می‌شود این خنده، ظاهری است و در باطن، مخاطب می‌گرید و به فکر فرو‌می‌رود. ابوالفضل زرویی نصرآباد و احمد رجب از نویسندگان سرشناس طنز در ایران و مصر در آثارشان توانسته‌اند با استفاده از شگردهای مختلف طنزپردازی، اوضاع و شرایط حاکم در کشورهای خود را به خوبی منعکس کنند. پژوهش حاضر، با روش تحلیلی-توصیفی و با تکیه بر تذکرة المقامات زرویی و نصف كلمة احمد رجب، این تکنیک‌ها را مورد بررسی قرار داده و به این نتیجه رسیده است که تهکم، بیشترین بسامد در نثر این دو نویسنده را به خود اختصاص داده است، همچنین این دو با استفاده از زبان طنز، توانسته‌اند تا حد زیادی مسائل و مشکلات موجود در جامعة ایران و مصر را به صورتی غیر مستقیم بیان و نسبت به آن انتقاد کنند.

Sale Based on an Open Price – A Comparative Study
...Show More Authors

The ultimate goal of any sale contract is to maximize the combined returns of the parties, knowing that these returns are not realized (in long-term contracts) except in the final stages of the contract. Therefore, this requires the parties to the contract to leave some elements open, including the price, because the adoption of a fixed price and inflexible will not be appropriate to meet their desires when contracting, especially with ignorance of matters beyond their will and may affect the market conditions, and the possibility of modifying the fixed price through The elimination is very limited, especially when the parties to the contract are equally in terms of economic strength. Hence, in order to respond to market uncertainties, the

...Show More Authors

This study was conducted to estimate the extent of damage to the population in Basra, southern Iraq, specifically the areas adjacent to the Shatt al-Arab and the Arabian Gulf, which are the Al-Fao district and the Al-Siba region. They are affected by the progression of saline water resulting from the lack of water imports and the Karun River interruption, which led to high concentrations of salts in the Shatt Al-Arabs. Consequently, its effect on lands and all life types in these areas requires correcting a map of the study area to drop the groundwater sites as well as calculate the total dissolved salts, electrical conductivity and pH. This study concluded that the groundwater contains very high percentages of total dissolved solid
