The myth-ritual theory is based on the anthropological perspective and believes that the life of myth is related to the presence of religion. According to the theory, every myth is an interpretation of a religious ritual and an oral narration of a ritual. In the passage of time, rituals are transferred to epic texts and thus represent the function of repeating archetypal values. The findings of the present research show that "the hero's trial", which has been the subject of many epics in the world, is one of the clear examples of representation as well as repetition of myths; it opens a way for man to return to the eternal time and place; and it causes the hero to become strong by knowing "the rituals of learning of secrets". The current research was done with analytical-comparative method and based on the myth-ritual theory. The presence of the ritual of "the hero's trial" in Persian epics (composed in the Islamic period) refers to a religious ritual and tells how the ritual was established in ancient times by gods and heroes. Examining some of the epics makes it possible to clarify how these trials were conducted and, in addition, it also provides the ability to classify them. Manuscript profile

One of the mythological bases with which humans have always had a transcendental relationship is place. Accepting the mythical role of some places and their sanctity is a theme that can be seen in mythological, epic and storytelling narratives and is manifested in the form of mountains, caves, wells, springs, crypts, fortresses, gardens, enchanted places, etc. In mythological belief, the place is different from what is defined in the cosmic and material environment; and the material and worldly objects and phenomena become transcendental and sacred affairs. By staying on a mythical place, the hero matures and evolves, and undergoes spiritual transformation as well as immortality. This research aims to introduce mythical places and analyze their function and quality in the narratives of scrolls of storytelling; and by studying the epic narratives of the Shahnameh and scrolls of storytelling, it tries to investigate and analyze examples of important themes of mythical places. In this regard, the mythical quality of the places in the scrolls were analyzed. The mountain is one of the holiest places due to its high position and proximity to the sky, and other mythical and sacred places such as springs, castles, crypts, and gardens are often located on top of mountains. The research methodology in this article is descriptive-analytical. Manuscript profile
