Abstract
The transition eras are quite significant in the precise depiction of the process of literature history and defining causes and reasons for change in literary genres and also the literary taste. In the Iranian history of literary fiction, transition from the long traditional story (romance) to novel is among the most prominent transitional periods. This paper reviews the early works similar to novel created in the Persian literature, then surveys reasons leading to the creation of the works written during the transition era, showing how the series of factors related to the court of Naser-edin Shah Qajar, although made this change slow, was ultimately influential in forming the direction of this change in the path of literary fiction towards the novel era. As a matter of fact it can be said that the Naseri court was the transitional path from the traditional story towards the novel era.
 

Keywords: Qajar era and literature, traditional long story (romance), novel in the contemporary era, Naser-edin Shah Qajar court, contemporary Persian literature.
