The Relation of Persian language with Social Reconstruction and Translative Mind in Iran

In This paper we attempt to explore the historical function of humanities in general; by considering efforts which are related to the matter of social reconstruction in some critical periods of Iran's history. Also we focus on the function of Iranian languages1 in process of social reconstruction, the processes which are continual somehow and discontinued in some phases. Then, it to answer this question that "what is the historical function of translation in humanities and social reconstruction in recent Iran?" We start with the period in which the Arabs conquest of Persia and separate this time period to pre and past- Ferdowsi, and compare them with the aim of a deep consideration of Ferdowsi's intention, in order to find out the reasons of his attempts to build up the reconstruction on the basis of his lingual logics, approach and ideal. Then other matters of reconstructing, after the Mongol conquest of Persia and after Safavid dynasty considered and evaluated. Considering the mutual affects of Persian language and humanities on each other is based on this assumption that translation has an important and extremely effective role in Persian language and the sights of its speakers. Findings show that humanities in our countries have not paid enough attention to cognitive basis of Persian language, in particular, and to the Persian language and social affair in general. This paper claims that "the success of humanities is a matter of social reconstruction in Iran which depends on their attention to the introductory knowledge of the society". Discussions in this article which are related to translation, derived from a research program titledas "Social problems of translation and translators in Iran" and suggest that in the last two centuries, original thoughts have been reduced to translative ones, which in turn make a "translative mind"; this term refers to any kind of imitative thoughts, ideas and acts. We cannot expect humanities to become creative and lead the way in Iranian society, in the present condition.
