  • Investigating the Manifestations of Greed in the Epical and Mythical Characters of Ferdowsi’S Shahnameh
    Investigating the manifestations of greed in the epical and mythical characters of Ferdowsi’s Shahnameh Leila Ahmadi Nasr 1*, Ali Eshghi Sardehi 2, Saeed Ruzbahani 2 1 PhD students, Persian literature and language, Islamic Azad University, Sabzevar Branch, Sabzevar, Iran; 2 Assistant professor, Persian literature and language, Islamic Azad University, Sabzevar Branch, Sabzevar, Iran. Correspondence: Leila Ahmadi Nasr, PhD students, Persian literature and language, Islamic Azad University, Sabzevar Branch, Sabzevar, Iran. Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT Based on Iranian myths, there has always been a confrontation between two Ahurai and Ahrimeni forces in progress. This issue has caused the human nature to be inflicted with such a situation. One of the works wherein the manifestation of myth, epic and history can be seen in the form of the confrontation between the good and evil is Ferdowsi’s Shahnameh which is an identity-bestowing book that besides this characteristic, contains many ethical and instructional concepts, as well. One of these concepts is avarice that creeps into the ego of the ideal and honorable characters in Shahnameh and adversely influences them and makes them encounter many ethical challenges. In this work, avarice has been depicted in the form of an ogre that is unequaled amongst the evils and deemed to be the most harmful. The investigation of the embodiments of this immorality in Shahnameh shows that Afrasiab Turani is the greediest person whose greedy behaviors cause the people from Iran and Turan to be repeatedly afflicted with financial and life problems and the blood of many innocent persons has been shed on the ground from the two sides.

  • The Shahname of Firdowsi
    The Shahname of Firdowsi The Shahname of Firdowsi by Iraj Bashiri copyright, Bashiri 1993, 2003 and 2008 Introduction The conflict between the present-day Uzbeks and their Tajik neighbors that is at times inflamed has a long and multi-faceted history. On the one hand, it is related to the ancient history of the two peoples, when the Turks, arriving in Central Asia from the confines of Mongolia, overthrew Iranian rule, including Tajik rule. And, on the other hand, it is related to the resilience of the Tajik culture and the ability of the Tajiks to retain their authority in spite of the might of the Turkish sultans and amirs. In recent decades, especially after the fall of the Soviet Union, the Turks revived Pan-Turkism, once again denying the Tajiks their identity. In this regard, they often cite Afrasiyab from the epic of Firdowsi, as the eponymous ancestor of the Turks. This claim presents several difficulties. First, both in the ancient Iranian texts and in Firdowsi's Shahname, Afrasiyab is a mythical character. He is not the real-world king that, for instance, al-Tabari would like us to believe.[1] Secondly, within the myth, he is a Turanian who has lost his farr (kingly glory) and seeks to restore it. This means that the Turanians of the Shahname are of Iranian stock. Thirdly, a review of the Orkhon inscriptions and life on the steppe indicates that neither the Turanians nor the Iranians of the Shahname share the öz (real) Turk cultural heritage of which the Turks are proud.

  • Fateful Women in Ferdowsi Shahnameh

Postal Code: 61349-37333. Tel: 0098-613-334-8420. E-mail: [email protected] Received: February 1, 2016 Accepted: April 3, 2016 Online Published: April 5, 2016 doi: 10.5539/elt.v9n5p46 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5539/elt.v9n5p46 Abstract Shahnameh as one of the most important literary works that reflects the pure thoughts of the past Iranians, plays a key role in preserving the Iranian cultural heritage and national identity. Mythology helps us to understand the civilizations included the cultures. For example, the image of the women in the literary works is different from their modern popular image that ignores the real position of the women. Abu ʾl-Qasim Ferdowsi, the highly revered Persian poet, is one of the literary figures who considered the role of women in his literary masterpiece in spite of the prevailing attitudes towards the women in his era. Some studies, due to the lack of understanding the Ferdowsi’s poems, have claimed that he is a misogynist poet. However, Ferdowsi has equally ranked men and women in his long epic. For example, there are a number of chaste and compassionate mothers in Shahnameh, who play a vital role in shaping the epic character of the heroes.

  • The Early Ristory of the H Uns and Their Inroads in India and Persia
    The Early Ristory of the H uns and Their Inroads in India and Persia. (Read on 28th August 1916.) I. During the present war, we have been often hearing of the a ncient Huns, because some of the ways of fighting of our Introduction. enemies have been compared to those of these people. Again, the German Emperor himself had once referred to them in his speech before his troops when he sent them under the command of his brother to China to fight ;tgainst the Boxers. H e had tlius addressed them :-" When you meet the foe you.will defeat him. No quarter will be given, no prisoners will be taken. Let all who fall into your ha nds be at your mercy. Just as Huns, a thousand years ago, under the leadership of Attila, gained a reputation in virtue of which they still live in historic tradition, so may the na me of Germany become known in such a manner in China that no Chinama n will ever again da re even to look askance at a German." Well-nigh all the countries, where war is being waged at present, were, at one time or another, the fields of the war-like activities of the Huns . Not only that, but the history of almost all the nations, engag­ .ed in the present war, have, at one time or another, been affected by the hi story of the Huns. The early ancestors of almost all of them had fought with the Huns. The writer of the article on Huns in the Encyclopredia Brita nnica 1 says, that " the authentic history of the Huns in When does the Europe practically begins about the year 372 History of the Huns A.D., when under a leader named Balamir (or .begin ? Ba la mber) they began a westward movement from their setUements in the steppes lying to the north of the Caspian." Thoug h their strictly a uthentic history may be said to begin with the Christian era, or two or three centuries later, their semi-authentic history began a very long time before that.

In fact the main theme of Shahnameh is reviving Iranian history and beginning the wars between Iran and Turan. Also the Shahnameh is the essence of life that has a particular manifest in heroic (Pahlavani) ritual. From examining the heroic and chivalry ritual one can understand that belief of ancient Iranians is influential on hero's behavior. From viewpoint of Ferdowsi the religion and morale is bonded with hero and the king and it is the product of the life style of Iranians in a land that its maintenance requires a heroism and chivalry. This paper is a descriptive and qualitative one and its objective is examination of heroism and chivalry through anthropologic analysis (Ferdowsi's Shahnameh case study).

  • Investigation of Turkish, Kurdish and Lurish Words in Ferdowsi's
    Investigation of Turkish, Kurdish and Lurish words in Ferdowsi’s Shahnameh Safora Ramshini 1, Ali Eshqi Sardehi 2*, Saeed Rouzbehani 2 1 Ph.D. student, Persian language and literature, Islamic Azad University, Sabzevar Branch, Sabzevar, Iran. 2 Assistant professor, Persian language and literature, Islamic Azad University, Sabzevar Branch, Sabzevar, Iran. Correspondence: Ali Eshqi Sardehi; Assistant professor, Persian language and literature, Islamic Azad University, Sabzevar Branch, Sabzevar, Iran.Emial: [email protected] ABSTRACT Ferdowsi’s Shahnameh has been recited in Persian language and its goal is reviving a language that was exposed to change and annihilation following the Arabs’ attach. But, since there are words and phrases from other languages in a language so that it can keep on striving, Shahnameh, as well, is no exception to this rule. Hakim Ferdowsi has used Arabic, Turkish, Kurdish, Lurish and even other languages’ words in Shahnameh but they are yet to be recognized. This study seeks to find the roots of the Turkish, Kurdish and Lurish words and investigating their applications. It is worth reminding that such words are currently also used in their mother languages but it does not mean that Ferdowsi has definitely used these languages and that some of them might have found their ways into these languages from Persian and even from Shahnameh. Keywords: Shahnameh, word, Turkish, Kurdish, Lurish Introduction The Turkish words in Shahnameh can be divided into two sets: the first one includes the names of the individuals and places that Although Ferdowsi’s Shahnameh has been mused in Persian, have been employed in Shahnameh’s context due to the necessity there are found words from some other languages in various and the second one incorporates Turkish words and expressions forms therein and this is reflective of the participation of Iranian that have been used by Ferdowsi without paying attention to the tribes with their specific languages in this national epic.

This epic is a seminal work in the literature of the Ancient Near East and is the “chief source whence the Persians derive their ideas as to the ancient history of their nation”.2 Beyond the beauty of the text, with its magnificent stories and wonderful images, lies a dark and gruesome root – blood.
