Abstract: (4023 Views) |
The story of Rostam&Sohrab is one of the excellent sections of Ferdowsi’sshaahnaame which is circulated among general public because of its tragic nature. The attractiveness of this narration leads to this matter that the narrators deal with this section more than the other sections and sometimes make some gradations in the original narration by the necessity of time and place. Prior to this, deceased AnjaviShirazi has already collected some parts of these narrations in his ponderous work “Ferdowsi and people”, but there are a lot of folk narrations all over of this country in which have not been concentrated. One of these narratives, which has not yet compiled in any written document, is a very different narration of this story that has been circulated among the habitants of the village “Masarm” and now narrated by the eldest woman of this territory “Khavar cheesy” .Her relatively older age (one hundred and fifteen years old) and her repeated emphasis on the oldness of this narration, to be forgotten among general public and also the existence of some indications of being ancient, all indicate this fact that the existing narration has been circulated in this village and we may say that this narration has been exposed to gradation by narrators over time. The study of this relatively detailed narration shows that the narration has been exposed to alternation and gradation in more sections which part of it was due to the efforts of storytellers to indigenize the narration; another part of it was due to add the excitement and attractiveness in the story and also it seems that some sections have been added to the story to do away with the deficiencies of shaahnaame’s narration. The researcher has tried, using a descriptive-analytical approach, to study such an old type of narration. |
