Abstract: (591 Views)
Regional culture, encompassing the collective beliefs, thoughts, emotions, attitudes, and interactions among members of any indigenous community, is recognized as a rich source in the production of literary works. This common ground has led prominent writers such as Jalal Al-e Ahmad and Gholamhossein Sa'edi to delve into the study, research, and scrutiny of the culture prevalent in various regions of Iran, especially lesser-known areas. The author of this study aims to investigate how indigenous and regional cultural elements are employed in the production of literary works based on two works by Gholamhossein Sa'edi, "Ahle Hawa" and "Tars-o-Larz."
The methodology employed in this study is comparative-analytical. The results of the investigation indicate that Sa'edi, in writing "Tars-o-Larz," deliberately incorporates numerous instances and narrative elements such as time, place, characters, and plot twists derived from the collective indigenous and regional beliefs of the southern people. For instance, the concept of time in "Tars-o-Larz" aligns with non-calendar-based and mythological folk beliefs.
