This study seeks to examine the virtual mourning as one of the memory practices among some of Iranian Facebook users. Three research questions guided the study as I sought to explore 1) the factors are involved in experiencing the extension of mournful remembering from real space to virtual space like Facebook, 2) the reasons these users have for continuing this experience to Facebook and 3) how this extension changes remembering and media-related practices. In order to answer these questions, dual spacization paradigm and combination of several perspectives and concepts from communication, sociology and psychology have been used. I conducted the deeply semi structured interviews with 16 ordinary Facebook users who had lost their beloved in recent years. The special experience of users, analyzed by MAX QDA, was interpreted that thanks to technologies of recording and preserving memories, mourning as a socio-cultural practice has become a considerably new, untested space. Like other life areas, mourning practices are experiencing a quality of dual- spacization, having different aspects: performative, archival and ritual.

Media literacy as a strategy has to be implemented in the country after it has become known as a necessity for promotion in the country in order to benefit from the effective and effective use of the media and reduce its destructive effects, and it should support a scientific consensus. This was the motive for critical thinking and the formation of sprawling sphere in the media field, which gave a special look to this issue. Using a questionnaire, three components of trust, participation, social capital and social and social components and two cognitive and aesthetic components Media literacy was tested. The result of the research shows that there is a direct and significant relationship between the ethical dimension of media literacy and social capital, that with the rise of the ethical dimension of media literacy, individual social capital also increases. The moral dimension emphasizes the ability to understand and retrieve the hidden values in the media message. The next sense sense of media literacy that forms the periphery of the outer layer, where the audience is exposed to media messages through one of the five senses, is the cradle of Marshall McLuhan's theory, which states: "Each medium along One of the five senses is human."

Thus, this research was performed through Case Study method tries answering this question: what is the most important ideological traditionalism basics related to the modern development and what consequences will be resulted from this approach for the development plan and cultural policy? The approach of ideological traditionalists has been represented based on the generally negating the modern development,Rejection of newly emergent, epistemic controversy with development,citing restrain and defending traditional and Islamic values. In this course, neither the western style development nor the Islamic style development has followers because as the traditional views of this mainstream proxy imply the nature of development is western which is in contradictory with Islamic logic. These viewpoints invoke the passive position where a future must be expected reconstruction of which is based on the returning to the tradition. Regardless of emphasizing the positive values, this discourse has not provided an alternative view for the development paradigm and lacks positive fundamentals to use practically to cope with the current problems in the cultural policy.

The researches of this painting have also affected some of the artists to do adaptations, as the three Iranian and European contemporary artists, Habibullah Sadeqi, Abdul Hamid Qadiriyan and Claudia Palmarocci created paintings by adaptation of that. The four texts of Behzad and the three contemporary adaptations of that, reproduce a discourses. So between the painting of Behzad and the adaptations of that a linkages of Interdiscourse, is created. The aim of this study is to re-study interdiscourse relations between the four mentioned texts with a discoursal due to the adaptation position in postmodernist attitude, and answers these questions: what discourse each of these texts reproduce? what is the relationship between their discourses? Also, how does each of these interdiscourse relations affect the retrieval of Iranian cultural-artistic identity? This research is by method of analytical and comparative method and interdiscourse approach. The metatext and discoursal perusal showed that painting of Behzad reproduces the Islamic-mystic discourse of Naqshbandiyed in Timurid period, two works of Sadeqi and Qadiriyan reproduce contemporary Iranian-Islamic of art academy and Palmarocci’s painting reproduces a cultural and contemporary discourse on the concept of "house" in Italy.
