Abstract

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).
