Daqooqi’s Nnarrative from the Perspective of Henry Corbin's Method

In order to study texts, especially eastern and Islamic texts, Henry Corbin developed a special method that combines both material and physical, and mental and imaginary viewpoints. According to this aim, he connects the phenomenology of Husserl (and other philosophers of this school) with eastern views, especially with the ideas of Suhrawardi. The detached imaginative world is the result of this composition. This world is a purgatory world whose events and elements are placed between the material and imaginative worlds. Daqooqi’s narrative, which is one of the most surreal oriental stories and about which many researches and explanations have been done, is a mystical and moral narration of the third book of Masnavi, the field of events of which is surreal and has the coordinates of a detached imaginative world. This article, which is written in a descriptive-analytical method and uses the library tools, tries to use the phenomenological method of Henry Corbin to examine the components of the detached imaginative world in the Doqouqi's narrative. According to the findings of this study, some of the components of the detached imaginative world that can be seen in the Doghouqi's narrative are: subjectivity of time, non-compliance with corporeal geography, inconsistency and incompatibility with the characteristics of matter, imaginative method (example) in perception and awareness, the materialization and embodiment of abstract meanings, not following the causal relations (cause and effect), and Etc.
