Abstract:
This research tries to examine in details tales of two Iranian and Indian epics, namely Shanameh and Mahabaharat aimed at revealing their structures similarities and limitation in plan and extremes. Therefore, some parts of these tales having the subjects of "Killing Relatives" and "Offending Relatives" have been selected to be analyzed structurally.
The reason for such a selection is lack of such a research in the field of epic as most of the researches in this area are interpretive. Structural analysis is an introduction to interpretive one. It is why some structuralists (G.Genet, for example) have considered the issue more important than a mere structural analysis and refer attached importance to interpretation.
The reader of the paper will find out that these tales are similar in content in addition to their structures.
