fragmentation Explanation: this seems to be the best in this context...I read the sentence to be "the principles of the nature and intrinsic components of the fragmentation and transcendental renewal of the thoughts of Imam Khomeini"...and it is just as مبهم in English as I find it in Persian. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 16 hrs (2010-06-02 11:49:11 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Would the author be familiar with "deconstruction"? Or maybe he just likes to use difficult words. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 18 hrs (2010-06-02 13:35:09 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Hmmmm...as I was looking up the words in my reference books, "deconstruction" was the one that came to mind...BUT you will have to judge whether that is what the author wanted to say...it may fit, if you consider "tajaddod" which follows it...good luck |
