Arbaeen march rituals are one of the largest religious gatherings in the world, which are attended by millions of people of different nationalities and from different social groups every year. This march is important for researchers in the field of religion and communication in terms of communication, media and rituals. The purpose of this research is to identify the communication aspects of the Arbaeen march, and it has been tried to extract the components of the research field by using the qualitative method, grounded theory and conducting in-depth interviews with experts, during various coding processes with MAXQDA software. The research findings showed; Communication in the march has "internal and external dimensions". "Traditional communication" which is more interpersonal and based on opinions is the dominant form of communication in this march. The external dimension of communication has many aspects of "mass communication", which itself is divided into two categories: "formal communication" and "informal communication". In official communication, such as news reports on radio, television and press about different dimensions of the march, it is usually tried to highlight and publicize the religious dimension and popular solidarity of the march. The atmosphere of the Arbaeen march is full of conversations. The existing "verbal communication" is beyond a simple communication and the communication in the Arbaeen march has multiple layers and periods. In this regard, the communication model of the Arbaeen march is known as the communicative-interactive model.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the Adolescents' Dual Identities in Cyber-Real space (Case Study: Secondary School Students in Ardabil Province), which was done by survey method. The statistical population includes all high school students in the second year of Ardabil province, from which 380 people were selected as a sample by multi-stage cluster sampling. A researcher-made questionnaire based on the theoretical framework of the research was used to collect data. The validity of the questionnaire was confirmed by face-to-face and structural validity and some modifications and its reliability was confirmed after calculating Cronbach's alpha coefficient and removing some items. Data were analyzed by t-test of two independent groups in SPSS software. The results showed that adolescents in cyberspace had a dual identity in religious, family, sexual, national, ethnic and cultural dimensions. Adolescents' identities were more structured, coherent, and real in real space, and more mobile, unstable, and unstable in cyberspace.An identity that, according to some characteristics, can be called a modern or rethinking identity. Adolescents, in addition to trying to preserve traditional sources of identity in the real world, portrayed themselves as pro-global or cosmopolitan in cyberspace.

Discussing remote work and home quarantine of women academic staff members of universities and research institutes in the days of Corona and studying their lived experiences can play an effective role in the recognition and development of women's employment literature. This phenomenological research has investigated the lived experiences of 30 female faculty members of participating universities and research institutes, with the aim of discovering and describing remote work and home quarantine during the Corona period. In order to collect data, the research used a semi-structured interview with a purposeful sampling method. Based on the phenomenological method, the analysis process was carried out on three macro levels. In the third level of analysis, the result of equalizing intellectual horizons was: 5 horizons related to remote work, 9 horizons related to home quarantine, and 9 horizons related to strategies and solutions. In the second level, coherent descriptions of narratives were formed by separating remote work, home quarantine and strategies and solutions, and in the highest abstract level or the first level of analysis, the structural integration of coherent descriptions was done.

Many video games have historical content. In other words, gamers play various genres in specific historical eras. Assassin’s Creed franchises are a kind of those games. In this article, Assassin’s Creed (2007) had researched in detail. “Assassinate” is the most important feature of this game that has been based on Ismailities Nizaris and the Assassin Legends in its narrative during the third Crusade. This article shows how developers have chosen historical narratives, especially Assassin Legends, and have converted them to the game’s narrative and mechanics and have made a new interpretation of Assassin Legends. In this article, the content of AC as a historical game has been discussed in interdisciplinary (Art and History). The historical method had used where we discuss Ismailities Nizaris and The Assassin Legends; and the descriptive-analytic method where we attend to the game’s content. In addition, this thesis approach is comparative. It has shown that AC has developed and inspired by The Assassin Legends in layers very intelligently. Some historical narratives have been converted to mechanics of the game as deadly falling by order of “Old Man of the Mountain” and Gnostic vision. Most Muslim characters are fictitious but most Christian characters have a real historical existence. This article may be useful for those who make historical games.

In analysis and critique of “art”, Lyotard employs the "event" as a concept that attributes singularity, uniqueness, liberation from conventions and customs, indefiniteness, and instantaneity. In his opinion, events manifest themselves in ways that defy genre conventions and thus attest to the unpresentable, as the main duty of a postmodern work of art. This qualitative and archival study, based on Abbas Kiarostami's meta-cinema works Close-Up (1990) and Through the Olive Trees (1994), seeks how events may represent the unpresentable. It revealed that the reviewed films had employed a variety of techniques, including technical interruptions in audio and video, as well as innovative narrative techniques that challenge the conventional and classic narrative form time and again, thereby integrating meta-cinema and the concept of Lyotard's event. As a result, the method of attesting to the unpresentable was studied as an intermediary of the event by creating a cinematic form that defies conventional filmmaking traditions and principles. It thus confirms the unpresentable as the main idea of Lyotard's views on art.

Honorable zeal is one of the social-cultural components of different societies, including Iranian society. In recent decades, with the expansion of feminist ideas, this issue has been critically analyzed, and its overflow can be seen in the art of cinema. The present research has been carried out with the aim of investigating the representation of honorable zeal in the Iranian cinema of the 1390s, using Fairclough's discourse analysis method. This method includes three stages of description, interpretation and explanation, during which the formal features of the text are examined in the description stage, the interdiscourses in the interpretation stage, and the influence of macro-social structures in the explanation stage. For this purpose, 3 films "Daughter's House", "Father's House" and "Parvaneh's Swimming" were selected and analyzed from the series of films released in the 1390s with a purposeful sampling method. The results indicate that in the light of the effects of the process of globalization on Iranian cinema, the development of feminist literature, the cultural policies of international film festivals, the development of the urban middle class in Iran and the cultural policies of the government of moderation, the issue of honor zeal in the cinema of Iran in the 1390s has been represented as an irrational phenomenon with absolutely harmful consequences and The creator of the authoritarian relationship between men and women.
