Abstract

Iranian CARPETs enjoy various decorative elements, one of which is inscription; there are many inscription accompanied with Kufi, Thuluth and Nastaliq calligraphy in these CARPETs. Such INSCRIPTIONS can be classified into several different types. Some contain WRITINGs such as Quran verses, poems and specifications of the CARPET, while the other are decorative only, free from any WRITING and resemble to be INSCRIPTIONS only by their own form and shape.Converting WRITING into a decorative element is a creative activity excellently achieved by Iranian artists, just like their creativity in converting dry-looking geometry into a fine art using fretwork. Inscription as a visual element can be read in different ways by different analysts in accordance to the TEXT in which it has been located. These CARPETs can be read and analyzed both in terms of “syntagmatic axis” with other elements and also from viewpoint of “paradigmatic axis”. Therefore, inscription is not a piece of WRITING rather a TEXT within a larger TEXT, i.e. CARPET, as well as within an overall integration such as mosque and home where it has been placed, and can have different READINGs. It should be noted that this paper is prepared using library-based research method.
