Conceptual Blending in Kelileh va Demneh Stories According to the theory Foucault and Turner

Conceptual blending theory allows the mind to apply multiple interconnected mental spaces that have different meanings.Then it combines them together and examines these different meanings in an efficient and correct way to achieve the semantic network that forms the mental spaces. In most of the Kelileh va Demneh stories, the conceptual blending is prominent and the author's mind plays a fundamental role. The semantic network of personalizing the stories of Kelileh va Demneh is a combination of elements and characteristics of incompatible spaces and the combination of these spaces together creates emerging meanings and structures in the mind.Therefore, this research seeks to identify and represent the conceptual blending symbols of Kelileh va Demneh stories based on Fauconnier and Turner theory in a descriptive and content analysis manner.This study showed how conceptual blending symbols and meaning making can be illustrated by considering the concept of meaning continuity in the stories, using the concepts and processes discussed in conceptual blending theory.It also showed how using the four-space conceptualization of conceptual blending theory as well as processes such as composition, completion, and complexity and principles such as regression and the principle of access to all elements and their relationships in interdisciplinary interlocking spaces that they don’t project into the blending space but The choice is made, and the choice varies from blend to blend, so a variety of conceptual blending symbols emerge.
