Abstract
The Genesis of theoretical structure of modern human beings is to be found in differentiating between doxa and Truth. In fact this is the distinguishing Truth form doxa in one hand and objectivity from subjectivity in other hand that identifies modern way of thinking from pre-modern thinking one. This is to be identified totally intuitive in its mental layers. Consciousness is something Absolut in the, mystical way of thinking which is completely transits from "self" or an original past. While in modern way of thinking objects are the points of doubt and investigation In mystical way of thinking, only to the extent that it is the object allows objects are known and this is the object that imposes the myth of subjection. It is important to Recognize the later as an illogical pre-systematic mystical way of thinking in Iranian’s Intellectual history. A glance at Iranian intellectuals will disclose an effort to recognize the identity of "themselves" versus "the other”. The present article attempts to recognize and express the relation between the mythical mentality governing Jalal al-Ahmad's idea and his "self" concept and seeks to show that the allegoric mythical mentality in defining "self" versus "another" is a kind of agonistic encounter. In Jalal’s Account of such a relationship The West/"Other" has a deep conflict with "self" that cannot be ignored and, of course, cannot be eliminated.
