Abstract
The main goal of this article, following the tradition of critical discourse, as well as the framework of the interpretive model, is to reveal the verbal violence hidden in the discursive structure of various intellectual tendencies and the impact that verbal abuse has on its victims. The present article seeks to answer the main question: "How can linguistic violence be identified and analyzed in the speech and words of various intellectual discourses in the Constitutional Era?" To answer this question, a descriptive-analytical method with the theoretical framework of critical discourse analysis by Ruth Wedak and also the theory of verbal violence by Patricia Evans is used to examine the strategies of verbal violence in the discourses of rival intellectuals such as Mirza Malik, Talibov (Western/modernist discourse) and Sheikh Fazlullah Nouri and Ayatollah Na'ini (religious discourse). The findings of the research show that first; verbal violence existed in this period in the confrontation between the two groups of enlightened thinkers and scholars, both in their writings, i.e. newspapers, books and treatises, and their oral positions, and second; the verbal violence of Western intellectuals was more and more explicit than that of scholars.
