Analysis of Literary and Historical Dimensions of Nasavi’s Nafthado Almasdur with Phenomenological Approach

Phenomenology is a philosophical approach to review the quality of phenomena intuitively and spiritually. This approach has been existed in philosophical debates since ancient times, but first it was introduced as a scientific and noble manner by Edmund Husserl in Germany (1895-1938). In phenomenological approach reality of phenomena is stated without prejudgment and presumptions as authors’ first experience in a way that poet and author recognize phenomena and concepts by applying philosophical doubt and suspension of presumptions, by activating thoughtful “I” as they are appeared for him and his work is a kind of mental perception. In this study, Nafthado Almasdur written by Shahabaddin Mohammad ZobdariNasavi – novel masterpieces of technical prose of half of the 7th century- is analyzed based on phenomenology votes. Investigation of behavior and mental structure of “Nasavi” shows that there are components of phenomenological attitude in his thought such as thoughtful Ego plan, empiricism, emphasis on perceptions, personal experiences and feelings and commitment to critical thought. Therefore, in Nafthado Almasdur we face with literary text rather than history. It means that the author experiences phenomena with his own view facing with chaotic situation in the country and he describes his mental view in a different and creative definition from history.
