Abstract

In Zoroastrian texts, GOSHTASB has a good and even holy character, but in Shahnameh and many other historical books, belonging to Islamic period, he is an abominable one who knowingly sends his brave son, ESFANDYAR, on a mission in which ESFANDYAR is destined to die. Most contemporary critics have accepted and repeated Ferdowsi’s vision of the story. In the present article, first, we consider the personalities of GOSHTASB and ESFANDYAR in Shahnameh and pre-Islamic religious books and also Islamic period historical books; and analyze the views of contemporary critics. Then, we try to examine the dual personality of GOSHTASB and his relationship with ESFANDYAR from the fictional and mythical point of view. In some tales according to rites, the OLDER SON is sacrificed for protecting the crown and the throne of the father. The son sacrifices himself willingly and reaches great honor and the father isn’t blamed.
