The Conceptual Blending Theory of Fauconnier and Turner (2002) is one of the popular theories in cognitive semantics, which concerns with the role of integration of mental spaces in coherence and construction of meaning. According to Anderson (2013), this theory can be a basis for understanding the cultural, cognitive and contextual aspects of meaning construction in proverbs. Nahj al-Balagha is one of the most important religious books containing many proverbs from Imam Ali (AS). The present research examines meaning construction of five proverbs in the domain of Animal in Nahj al-Balagha. The present descriptive-analytic research is based on Anderson's (2013) approach. The questions include: How Conceptual Blending Theory can be applied on the animal proverbs in Nahj al-Balaghah? How situational meanings can be copied on and run in new political- historical-cultural situations? The results indicate that the meanings of warning, condemnation, description, and blame, taken from the conceptual blending of the domains of animal and human, are consistent with the moral-social-political messages of Nahj al-Balaghah. Firstly, human and animal domains are integrated analogically in the generic space. Then, the basic meaning is formed through [MAN AS ANIMAL] metaphor in the blended space. This basic meaning is combined with the referential meaning and creates situational meaning. Finally, the meaning is developed as an action in practical situations. This meaning can be run in similar circumastances. Therefore, their readings are applicable to infinite number of potential social-cultural-political situations. This confirms the dynamics of meanings in Nahj al-Balagha, formed in online circumatances.
