چشم‌اندازی در تکرار از گذشته تا امروز

Abstract

This article seeks to answer the following questions: Has the concept of repetition undergone changes over time? If so, what forms have these changes taken? The purpose of this research is to examine and analyze the transformations of repetition and illustrate its evolution from the past to the present. This study adopts a descriptive-analytical approach, with data collected through a library-based and text-centered method. The examination of repetition in historical contexts is based on the classification of Siros Shamisa, who categorizes literary devices such as commitment (or obligation), exclusion and mirroring, radd al-ajz ila al-sadr, radd al-sadr ala al-ajz, similarity of structure, and repetition itself under the broader concept of repetition. Accordingly, this study provides an overview of these rhetorical devices, followed by a detailed discussion of their definitions and interpretations by previous scholars. A concise summary of differing viewpoints and definitions is also presented, highlighting any notable distinctions.
