        The subject of the present article is the study and analysis of the narrative element of dialogue in Siavash's story. The story begins with a conversation between Toos and Giv, who has found Siavash's mother, and ends with a conversation between Siavash and Pilsem, the elder brother, who asks him to convey his message to the elders. Therefore, Siavash's story is basically dialogue-based and all the information that the story is supposed to provide to the reader is transmitted to him through dialogue. In addition to this dialogue, in relation to other elements of the story, its different functions reveals. Ferdowsi uses it to describe and introduce the characters of the story. Shows narrative actions and conflicts, indirectly presents its idealistic thoughts to the audience. It objectifies mental phenomena, points tothe psychological problem of mental connection and language, and shows in practice that the functions of dialogue cannot and should not be neglected in the study of the story. The data of this research are provided through library studies and after classification, they are described using analytical method. This research shows more than anything that Ferdowsi, as a storyteller, not only knows the elements of the story, but is also more aware of how they work. Manuscript profile

          The concept of cultural semiotics are existed by semioticians as the first concept that needed more consideration in cultural elements gathering respect. This knowledge provides deep understanding of ones and others culture by use of cultural elements. Shahname of Ferdosi is one of good examples between multi-cultural texts by dealing with different ethnic groups. So we try to consider the story rejection and expulsion of Siavash in cultural semiotic respect and his position from his and others point of views by descriptive and analytical methods in this study. This study wants to specify why Siavash is known among his family and also others as a stranger. We want to expand the scope of cultural semiotic studies and also use the analytical tools in related text. The results show that  Siavash is known as a stranger not only between Tooranian (as others), but also in his home land. From the point of view of one of his relatives (his father), he is a problematic person and should stay away from government. In this respect he is known as others. Manuscript profile

        4 - Siavash is a self-fulfilling personality (based on Abraham Maslow's theory)

        In the 20th century, many psychological schools emerged that dealt with various aspects of the human psyche and achieved surprising results. One of these psychological schools, which, unlike other psychological schools, focuses on the positive and bright aspects of human life, is the American humanistic psychology of Abraham Maslowe. He conducted his research on the healthiest people in society and came to the conclusion that there are a small percentage of people in society who will achieve self-fulfillment and perfection if all their physical and mental needs are met. There are many great characters and sublime people in Ferdowsi's Shahnameh, who are considered as clear examples of perfect and developed people of Abraham Maslow's plan and model. One of these characters is Siavash, the son of Kay Kavos, who is one of the most beloved heroes of the Shahnameh.In this article, using the descriptive-analytical method and with the help of library sources, we first discussed the components of Abraham Maslow's hierarchy of needs, then we reached this conclusion by briefly examining Siavash's character in Ferdowsi's Shahnameh based on the components provided by Maslow about self-fulfilling people. that Siavash, according to his ethics, behavior and decisions he has made in facing the events of his life, such as: acceptance of himself and others, having independence and privacy, a correct understanding of reality, appreciation for the surrounding phenomena, strong interpersonal relationships, a sense of sympathy , experiences, resistance to acculturation, can be considered among the clear examples of self-fulfilling people who want Manuscript profile

        5 - Exploring Similarities between the Iranian Mourning Ritual of Siavash and Greek Rituals of Dionysia and Adonia

        Rituals have long served as reflections of a society's culture, beliefs, and attitudes. Within different societies globally, a significant aspect of mythology is dedicated to fertility rituals, often symbolizing the cyclical death and rebirth of nature portrayed through the demise and subsequent revival of a god or goddess. A notable example is the mourning ritual of Siavash, a prominent figure in Iranian myth, known as Siavashan. This ritual celebrates his symbolic reincarnation in the form of a plant and his son Kei-Khosrow, embodying the concept of the god/hero's death and rebirth as part of the natural and temporal cycle. In Greek mythology, the Dionysia and Adonia festivals honor Dionysus and commemorate Adonis respectively, both fertility deities whose rituals focus on their deaths and resurrections. One aim of this article is to draw parallels between the Siavashan ritual and the Dionysia and Adonia ceremonies. Through an analytical-comparative approach, all three rituals are examined to reveal their shared characteristics. Despite differences in culture and geography, the research highlights the interconnectedness of world myths. The key commonalities among these rituals include the annual mourning ceremony and celebration of resurrection, often accompanied by customs like carrying icons, performing sacrifices, music, and singing mournful songs, typically led by women.

        6 - Mythic Analysis of Dard-e Siāvash; Reconsideration of 1953 Iranian Coup d’état in the Light of Myths

        In the passage of time, the myths influence and are influenced by the social and political events occurring at the present time. In the contemporary history of Iran, 1953 Iranian coup d’état as one the most impressive contemporary events inclined Iranian writers and novelists to notice to myths that are reflection of unconscious of Iranian people after the coup. EsmāilFasih’s Dard-e Siāvash (The Pain of Siavash), as one of the prominent novel, points to prevailing tendency to myths in those days.  Employing descriptive-analytical method and mythological criticism, the present article tries to consider the themes existing in mythical literature and the resonance of the myths in the novel. The research shows that based on his personality, social situation and intellectual climate, the writer recreates characters, narrations and mythic spaces relying upon the story of Siavash in Shāhnāmeh. Esmāil Fasih designates the time of death of the hero of the story, Siavash, on 19 August 1953 (28 Mordad). By doing so, the writer identifies the hero with Mosaddegh and refers to the role of hero-killing among Iranians. In other words, he generalizes the space of the story to the whole history of Iran.

        7 - The interpretation of Siavash’s dream in Shahnameh from the perspective of traditional dream interpretation and Jung’spsychology

        Abstract One of common grounds between literature and psychology is the concept of dreaming and its interpretation.  The most significant resemblance lies in their symbolic language.  In numerous literary and historical works of nations one comes across account of dreams that are realized and interpreted by dream interpreters.  Shahnameh as a singular literary work is no exception in this regard to an extent that this recurring feature can be considered as a motif.  Sometimes these dreams are fully realized, at times half come true and other times are totally symbolic.   Jung’s individual and collective unconscious arguments and traditional dream interpretation approach are applied to Siavash’s dream in Shahnameh in order to arrive at an interpretation so that it can be compared with the interpretation provided in the narrative tale.  The method of research in this article is analysis and comparison.  In traditional dream interpretation, every single symbol in the dream is interpreted according to the Persian and Islamic dream interpretation books, but in the Psychological dream analysis section first in view of Siavash’s life, personality and his temperaments and also in view of Jung’s free association method, the symbols in his dream are analyzed, then in the final part the structural similarities of this dream are compared with a certain ancient myth.   The result shows that irrespective of the approaches applied, the perfect juxtaposition of symbols in the dream are well in accordance with the natural trend of the tale in Shahnameh.

        8 - A pattern in the geometry of tragedy with reference to theTragedy of Siavash in Shahnameh

        Aristotle made exact generalizations regarding the art of poetry, its different kinds, and the expected objects of each.  Despite the variety of views in this discipline, this subject is of permanent value as a mere intellectual achievement. One of the issues he has expouned on with great care and concentration is that of tragedy.  In his view, tragedy occurs in an atmosphere filled with emotions of pity and fear leading to purgation of emotion or Catharsis.  In this article, other features of tragedy with reference to the tragedy of Siavash in Shahnameh are discussed.  Then the tripartite pattern repeated in many well known tragedies in the world is introduced, and finally the conclusion drawn from the common structure in the geometry of the tragedies is further discussed.
