Transcendent Analysis of Haft Paykar

'Nizami''s 'Haft Paykar' has been anslysed based on reception theory in this paper. The background of such a reception is the combination of myth and gnosis in a symbolic language. Its characteristic is the transcendent understanding of the context through interaction between the reader and the context and its content is the perciptable and clear awareness of the reader and it is interpreted as Nizami's sacred observation of creation.Nizami's Haft Paykar as a lingual phenomenon has been assumed the external that reflects its interior (content) similar to a mirror. In other words, the appearance is the manifestation of its interior, which in turn represents a heavenly prototype; the content cannot be manifested without its appearance. The appearance is smaller than its interior; thus, it cannot reflect the whole interior but it can be the mirror and manifest it symbolically. From such a viewpoint dome is assumed as the mirror of heaven (seven planets). In order to explain such a reflection correlated elements such as location (heaven, dome, Haft Paykar and centre), number (seven), light, color, the material of planet and personality (Bahram, Shideh and Semenar) have been analyzed.
