Abstract :

The present study aimed to analyze the victimization of women in Sadegh Chubak Sang-e Sabur's (Good Listener) novel based on criminal sociology. The statistical universe was the mentioned work and the studied sample embraced the victim women of the novel. The research design was qualitative discourse analysis, and data was collected through note taking on index cards. The data was analyzed by content analysis method. The results showed that one of the current crises of human society is the growing violence and victimization of women. Abuse of women is considered a common problem in all countries of the world and has complicated consequences. This issue has been reflected in Iranian fiction, especially in the works of Sadegh Chubak, so that the main structure of his stories was vulnerable women. He tried to show the most important social harms of his time with a realistic view of the surrounding issues, especially in the novel Sang-e Sabour. Sadegh Chubak considered the women to be more at risk of violence than others. In the dimension of violence, he focused more on psychological violence in the private sphere and non-marital violence and economic exploitation in the public sphere. He attributeed this, on the one hand, to the patriarchal social conditions of the reign and, on the other hand, to the common economic problems of the era, such as poverty and lack of suitable jobs. Therefore, concerning the doctrines of criminal sociology, this novel can be linked to the theory of daily activity and, lifestyle and it can be analyzed from criminological and sociological point of views.
