Abstract
One of the unanswered questions of the field of literature of the Constitutional Era is the reason behind the tendency of authors of this era toward common people’s culture and inclusion of the lives of people from lower classes in their writings, especially their tales. In other words, has the authors’ inclination to study the lifestyles, language, culture, and inclinations of the lower classes of the community maintained a recreational and ultimately aesthetical nature and/or has it been rooted in the socio-political outlook of authors. In this article, in order to respond to this question and to study the terms of combination of tales with the language and culture of common people, we take into consideration one of the most distinguished and distinctive texts of the Constitutional Era, being Ali Akbar Dehkhoda’s “Charand Parand”. As a reminder, the author of “Charand Parand” has created completely different works in a variety of conceptual fields such as history, translation, and lexicography, in different phases of his life, which maintain major differences to “Charand Parand”.
