Summary: | Surveying on the main meaning of the vocabularies is one of the essential requirements in the field of the culture and literature."Shadurvan" is one of the controversial words which, even though used in the old texts many times, and has been considered different meanings in dictionaries, but its original meaning is ambiguous and there is not enough explanations about it. Among the researchers and scholars in the Persian language background, Emile Benvenist, a French scholar believes that “Shadurvan” originally means the platform and the throne of the elders and kings, and has been derived from the Parthian language. In this paper, other evidences of the application of this word’s meaning in Persian dictionaries and texts of Persian poetry and prose has been collected and analyzed. Also the meaning of the "the Shadurvan’s lion" that has meant lion on the curtain, has been criticized. |
