Abstract
The metaphor of humanism from Lakoff and Johnson's point of view means assigning some aspects of human existence(the destination field)to mental concepts and inanimate objects(origin field) orThe significance of this metaphor is that by taking advantage of the knowledge that it has about many aspects of his existence, he can help to better understand and accept abstract concepts by humanizing themThe aim of this study was to compare the humanism of death in Hadigheh and Masnavi based on Lakoff and Johnson's viewpoint and by documentary method.The findings show that death anthropomorphism in these two works is depicted in the form of a general
metaphor of "death as a human with social relations and interaction", which has two subcategories of "Death as human with relation and confrontational interaction" and "Death as human with relations and amicable interaction".The results of his research show that, in Sanaei's thinking, death is in relation and "confrontational" interaction, as a colonel, warrior and murderer who seeks to exercise power to the lower hand, and in loving relations, in the form of shepherds, old andguests,he"cooperates"with other people.In Rumi's thought, the humanization of death is more than a "confrontational type, in which death as a judge, a martyr, colonel and warrior is at odds with people such as thecriminal,theconvictandthereceiverofawareness.Consequently,in Sanaei's thought, a person is introduced as helper In fact, based on a military and violent atmosphere,Rumi has drawn the relationship between man and death,but Sanaei has also focused on the relationship and interaction of peace, solidarity and tranquility.
