Abstract

believes that without paying attention to the dialogue, the audience and the text are not able to communicate, so no interpretation is made.. In Rumi's belief, the criterion of man's power and inability is his thought and understanding. In his sonnets, he seeks the lost that never fits in this world, but through intuition and objective discovery and these perceptions will be possible in the shadow of dialogue, which is a field for different questions and finding appropriate answers to it. The present article intends to analyze some of the sonnets of Rumi from this perspective through a descriptive-analytical approach. The result of the research indicates that following the questions and answers between the sonnets of Rumi and the commentator (audience) and adapting their semantic horizon, a new and correct interpretation could be achieved. When confronted with the text, the interpreter tries to refer to it according to the subject and retrieve the questions and answers of the text in relation to the conversation of the text with the foundation. This search has emerged from the tradition and fusion of the commentator's horizons. In addition, in this article, it has been examined that Rumi sees the inference and acquisition of meanings in the audience's understanding, and in order to achieve knowledge and understanding of the text, he emphasizes on understanding that is the product of a dialogue between the speaker and the reader occurred as a result of an event.
