REPRESENTING ZOROASTER’S ETHICAL THEOLOGY DISCOURSE IN ESSENTIALS OF IDEAL KINGSHIP OF ANCIENT IRAN

Abstract

Reviewing Zoroastrian teachings and his religious beliefs reveals a chance to represent a type of ethical discourse in the majesty of kingdom. The starting point of such an ethical discourse can be traced back in theological beliefs and ethical wisdom of this first Iranian theologian, so as in Zoroastrian theological teachings a set of obligatory principles is provided to relatively organize political and social signifiers based on a confinguration of metaphysical diciplinary relationships of political authority. The departing point of such principles can be observed in his redefining pattern of “right” and “wrong” of kingship politics charter on the basis of an ideal archytype of ahuraian creation system and truth-like signified in illustrating the from and structure of Iranian ideal king for mundane governance.
In the present article, an attempt has been made , through apppling a brief analytical narration , to study and reanalyze the framework and components of this metaphorical sampling based on religious presuppositions, concepts and proposition of mazdaism. Such idea-concepts as”ashah”,”faithfulness” ”farrah“, ”justice” ,”function” ,”struggle” between good and evil” etc. Have been reviewed throughout the article.
