The study of cultural contexts and the analytic results gained from the emotional structures as well as textual references have always drawn the attention of researchers, literary critics and the scholars of humanities to themselves. The selected prose and poems of these western and eastern writers are mostly emotional, full of love and a constant inspiration to their deep feelings. They are similar to lyrical poems in their common themes while they are written in different styles. Indeed, the concepts such as "Injustice", "Inferiority Complex", "The Oppressor", "The Oppressed", "Sympathy", and "Hatred", "Self and Other" are closely connected with the writers' sublimed feelings of justice and patriotism which are duly reflected in their writings. The study shows that culture and the cultural contexts have a very important role in justifying injustice or at the same time, spreading justice in the world. The researchers have used the comparative method of study based on the materials available in the libraries and the internet.

“Yousef and Zoleikh” is a story which has had aN influential realization in Persian literature. In addition to allusions, and different literary figures which are present in the text, this story has been narrated in various and colourful ways so that it has been translated into an independent ballad.Investigations show that although main characters and events are the same in different narrations, they are significantly different regarding structure, content, and theme.The present study attempts to compare and contrast two tales of this story one affiliated to Aboulghasem Ferdowsi, and the other to Nour-al-din Abdurrahman Jami so as to discover differences and similarities regarding narration format and structure.Jami’s “Yousef and Zoleikh” contains fewer redundant events, contradictory happenings, and vague situations and seems to be more structured and complete in comparison with that of Ferdowsi in which those factors are more frequent; therefore, that of Jami better interests and motivates the reader to follow the story to the end.

Happiness is an inner experience that all people praise, but achieving it and understanding its value is very difficult. Shams Tabrizi, Mowlana's beloved and spiritual leader, is one of the few mystics who praised happiness very much, and said valuable words on its causes and motivations.Abundant influence of Shams's teachings over Mewlana's ideas, and the role of Mewlana in the mystical poetry tradition caused that this issue be searched independently. In addition, understanding Shams's intellectual basics on the happiness can be useful for understanding importance of this issue in mystical texts.In this research, Shams's points of view on happiness and its causes and motivations are discussed employing a content analysis approach. Spirit, affection, mystical dancing, prayers, paradise imagination, hope, and even death are factors that in Shams' belief cause happiness. However, different people’s happiness is not same, but in this world, everyone is happy with something, and happiness has different kinds.
