The reflection of Rashid Al-din Fazlolah Hamedani's political idea in the language structure of his letters

When Gazan Khan made Rahdin Al-Din Fazlolah Hamedani the Vizier، Iran was in critical political and financial state. As Rahid Al-Din believed that this crisis is because of Mongol political ideas he tried to change Ilkhanate Government to a central power with the use of Iranshahri ideas. Some of his attempts to make political changes can be found in the language structure of his letters. With specific use of language، Rashid Al-Din tries to deconstruct political concepts according to Iranshahri ideas. With the use of some language tools such as naming، word choice، verb choice and conceptual metaphors، this research study three political concepts- king، people and religion- in Rahid Al-Din letters. He uses preislamic Iranian king''s names for Mongols in order to give Mongol''s an Iranian credit and to justify their domination in Iran. The study of verbs shows that Rashid Al-Din gives weak social role to people. He mostly chooses Material Action Supervention verbs for people. Rashid Al-Din use religion as a tool to improve Ilkhanate''s power. He calls Mongols kings، «king of Islam»، «supporter of Allah''s lands» and «supporter of Allah''s servants».
