"Conjunction and disjunction" is considered one of the most sensitive subjects of the science of semantics, which is important in understanding the syntactic and rhetorical details of literary works, and has always had a special place among traditional and modern rhetoricians. The story of Bijan and Manijeh from Ferdowsi's Shahnameh and Asadi Tusi's Garshaspnameh can be considered the most important epic works in Persian literature which will provide researchers with many capacities in the comparative analysis of syntactic rhetoric in reflecting the grammatical and rhetorical features of the two works. In this research, in order to understand the intentions and rhetorical meanings hidden in two works, the type of construction of semantic units at different levels such as clause, sentence, verse and even verses with related and interdependent meaning (enjambment) and the combination of each of these levels have been investigated. In this regard, we have studied the coherence of the text through the continuity or discontinuity of the rhetorical meanings in each of the mentioned levels, and by specifying the distribution of conjunctions and knowing their types, we have examined and compared their rhetorical functions in two works. The results of the research indicate that Ferdowsi and Asadi Tusi, by creating a kind of temporal and spatial connection and cause-and-effect link between the sentences and by benefiting from all kinds of subordinating and dependent connections (conjunctions) in conjunctions as well as observing the temporal and logical order between the sentences in the disjunctions, have created a strong and logical link in the text and a special semantic coherence in the chain of narration of events.

In the rhetorical and discourse studies of literary works, the study of the moods of the sentences is of great importance. The mood of the sentence expresses the poet's certainty in his words and exposes the extent of his relationship with the audience. The subject of the sentence and the effect of its cognition on the writer-reader relationship in traditional rhetoric and semantics has been considered by great rhetoricians such as Abdul Qahir Jorjani, Sakaki and Qazvini in the field of statement and composition. In western linguistics, modern critics and linguists such as Michael Halliday and Roger Fowler have also introduced the mood of the sentence more extensively than traditional rhetoric, examining it as the most important element in the interactive function of language. In this research by descriptive-analytical method, we examine different types of sentence moods (imperative, interrogative, conditional along with vocative, benedictory and descriptive moods) and analyze each one’s situation and function within about 3000 sentences in Garshaspnameh poem from Asadi Tousi and the story of Bijan and Manijeh from Ferdowsi's Shahnameh. In this regard, first we have analyzed the different moods of the artworks in the mentioned range, then we have entered the statistics obtained from the studies in the tables representing the distribution in terms of number and percentage so that by referring to numerical statistics, an accurate comparison between the artworks can be established. The results show that the main burden of information flow is on the dialogue atmosphere and because the variety of moods throughout the narrative has disrupted the monotonous framework, unparalleled dynamics can be seen in the artworks. Knowing the effect of dialogue on the expression of emotions, Ferdowsi has purposefully used it. The large number of sentences with interrogative, imperative, benedictory and vocative moods compared to Garshaspnameh will prove this claim. Although the use of imperative, descriptive and especially interrogative moods is considered as the textual values of the two artworks, but the story of Bijan and Manijeh can be considered more challenging than Garshaspnameh due to the greater dispersion of sentences with interrogative moods.

The presence and absence of the main and secondary elements of the sentence in the text of a literary work has a great impact on the transmission of rhetorical intentions and concepts to the addressee. Some pundits and researchers in the knowledge of rhetoric have considered the topic of removing grammatical elements as a way to prevent the speaker or writer from exaggerating in words and some others, in addition to removing additions, have introduced the ellipsis method from the text's aesthetics; This is while the method of substitution is often examined from the point of view of emphasis and its role in lengthening the sentence. Traditional rhetoricians and scholars of semantics such as Sibouyeh, Jahez, Khatabi, etc, have superficially and transiently mentioned the role of this method in rhetoric. Abdul Qahir Jorjani, due to the Evidence of Miracles in the Quran, placed the topic of "ellipsis and mention" in a regular and specific framework and introduced it as the basis of the cohesion of the word. Although he considers mentioning a grammatical element in the sentence is very important in creating secondary purposes and rhetorical meaning, but for remove the elements of the sentence, he has also considered the ability to influence and even considering the special situation and circumstances, he considered the removal of a grammatical element to be much more eloquent than mentioning it; Absence of presence that helps to approach the word in its most eloquent form. On the other hand,  Michael Halliday, a linguist of Functional grammar, describes this as "ellipsis and substitution" and considers the use of this method to be effective in text coherence. In order to be able to examine the topic of ellipsis and substitution in a literary text, a work full of abnormality in grammatical and rhetorical will be needed. The story of Bijan and Manizheh of Shahnameh and the poem of Garshaspnameh, due to their poetic and epic linguistic format, have provided a favorable capacity for various syntactic manipulations, especially the removal of elements in the sentence. The importance of the status of the elements in the sentence for conveying rhetorical intentions by Ferdowsi and Asadi Tousi, expresses the need to examine the status of ellipsis and mention of the main and secondary elements of the two literary works; Therefore, this Research, by descriptive-analytical method, examines and compares the effect of ellipsis and mention of main and secondary elements in 3000 sentences of each work in order to identify the secondary meanings. Among the main elements of the sentence, the rhetorical effect of the status of the subject, object, predicate and verb is discussed. Also, among the sub-elements of the sentence, the status of the adverb, the complement and demonstrative in the transmission of some rhetorical intentions of the poets have been examined in two literary works. The results of the research found that the omitted form of the elements of the sentence is more effective than mentioning them in terms of rhetorical value; Because the removal of one or more elements in the sentence by the poets is a sign of textual coherence and also the existence of a high level of communication between the poet and the addressee and this is the basis for the emergence of rhetorical purposes. The results also show that the ellipsis of elements is more in the context of conversations, which is one of the main reasons for the centrality of speech during the interactions of individuals. It can be said that the ellipsis and mentioning of the main and secondary elements of the sentence in two works happened for various rhetorical purposes. Persistence in the mind and creating emphasis has been one of the purposes of mention and also, low information value, brevity, avoiding unnecessary repetition and maintaining the narrative rhythm can be considered as the most important goals of poets in removing of the elements of the sentence. Generally, the method of the two poets in using the ellipsis and mention of elements in the sentence, has served to convey the rhetorical intentions correctly to the addressee.
