Anvari and Zahir al-Din Faryabi are two of the most influential Poets in the history of Persian poetry. These two have had a major impact on Persian lyrical poetry. This article is a research on the most important manifestations of poetic music in the sonnets of these two poets. After providing an introduction to these two poets influence on the evolution and promotion of Ghazal, in a descriptive-analytical manner, the article explores the inner music (verbal novelty) in their sonnets presenting diagrams. The analysis of statistics has suggested these results: both poets have used internal music in inducing concepts and influencing the audience. Despite composing only a small number of lyric poems, Zahir Faryabi has been able to take advantage of the musical features of literary figures as well as of the mood of the audience to contribute to the promotion of musicality in language. Figures like alliteration, repetition, and perfect pun are of highest importance in creating verbal musicality.. Anvari also benefits a lot from this type of music. He has become more successful than Zahir in this field, especially in use of pun, alliteration and repetition. In general, both poets have played an important and fundamental role in promoting novel figures in their simultaneous reliance on the speaker, the text and the audience.

Following Prop, structuralists attempted to present an overall model in creating different narrative in the 20th century. In this field, A. J. Greimas—the most popular narrative theorist—went beyond the limited studies of Prop, and presented his action model and his narrative chains. By doing so, he attempted to reach to the general principles of the narratives language and to analyze each narrative based on a specific narrative structure. He created his action model in a way that it can be adaptable which other narratives. Therefore, the aim of the present research is to study the narrative structure of Sandali dome story, as a sample of the amatory and lyrical poems based on Greimas theoryso This is the sixth story of the week and its narrator is the Lady of China in the sixth climate. we can analyze the structure of the original Plot using changes in statuses according to two-fold reciprocities, the narrative chains, and the action model of narratives.after analyzing the context, we concluded that Greimas's action model in analyzing the narrative of lyric poems of It is the change of situations based on the dual confrontation and the change of the process of action from one character to another, in which the story goes from an initial balanced state (beginning of the journey) to an unbalanced state by asking for Keir water from Shar. ) This situation changes until the Kurdish girl helps the shepherd and the shepherd completes his ascent towards the final balance (marrying a Kurdish girl, marrying a king and a minister, and sitting on the throne of Keir).

The Shanameh written by Ferdowsi is a long epic poem in Persian classic literature that has many tragic stories, among which we can mention the murder of Siyavash (Soug-e Siyavash) as an old narrative with a tragic theme. This study aims to explore the story of the murder of Siyavash based on the theory of “Mythos Tragedy” by the Canadian critic, Northrop Frye. According to the theory which asserts some general principles on the anatomy of tragedy, “The Murder of Siyash” involves some components such as “incompatibility between love and social structure”, “predetermined destiny” as well as 6 phases that all make it as one of the most beautiful tragedies in the world. In his theory, Frye does not refer to an antihero, but rather he attributes the tragedy to the predetermined course of events, destiny, and the will of Gods that turn the friendship to animosity. In the story of Siyavash, the dominance of fate and inspired destiny leads to unintended and accidental hostility between Afrasiyab and his daughter and son-in-law ending to an inadvertent fight. Another component of tragedy is “inevitability of the final catastrophe” that is depicted in the best way in the “Murder of Siyavash”. The ultimate peace and tranquility at the end of the story as well as its fatalist ideology lead to a sort of metaphysical relief that is required in the ending of a tragic work.

With the emergence of novel approaches to literature in the 20th century, Joseph Campbell redefined the field of mythological criticism by developing the idea of “hero's journey archetype”. After studying a wide variety of myths from different nations, he concluded that the hero progresses from the beginning to the end of a story through a shared formula in the form of a mental template which is repeated in all stories with minor variations. Bizhan and Manizheh is a love story in Shahnameh which can readily lend itself to analysis based on mythological criticism. Thus, by making a comparison between the developmental stages of a hero through “hero’s journey archetype of Campbell” and the tale of “Bizhan and Manizheh”, it is attempted in this article to analyze the commonalities and also the role of each characters in the tale based on this criticism. Base on Campbell’s archetype, the present review reveals that Bizhan as the hero of the story leaves the ordinary world behind. Having overcome three stages of “departure”, “initiation” and “return”, he then comes back to his land with a transformed personality which is represented by his marriage to Manizheh.
