Varieties of Linguistic Implications in Sam’aniʼs Rawh-al-Arvah

The linguistic signs of mystical texts, in terms of historical transformation of their linguistic levels, have created a noticeable variety of motivated and arbitrary implications. This study aims to show, through the examination of linguistic signs in the different areas of Samʼaniʼs Rawh-al-Arvah languages, varieties of linguistic implications of this text in terms of motivatedness and arbitrariness. Different varieties of linguistic implicationsappeared in levels of mythical religious language, the allegorical and virtual language, and in the conceptual and rational language of this text. This has led to the creation of a text with unique thoughts and language. To achieve to variety of linguistic implications of this text, we used the theories and views on historical evolution of linguistic implications and investigated the signification of linguistic signs of this text in the course of its historical evolution. In the end, we classified the different types of implications in text of Rawh-al-Arvah in terms of their motivatedness or arbitrariness, and showed the relationship of each category with the conceptual and logical language along with the visual and virtual language of this text. All of these implications consist four different parts which include both motivatedness and arbitrariness implications.
