Abstract

Nihilism in the beginning part of Boof-e koor and its similarity with Nietzsche’s nihilism is an issue that is explored by the writers of this paper. Despite the fact that Nietzsche’s influence is undeniable in Hedayat’s works, Hedayat’s nihilism is radically different from what Nietzsche has recognized as “active nihilism” and has specified in the deeds of ZARATHUSTRA. The distinction between the NARRATOR and ZARATHUSTRA can be investigated in the second part of Boof-e koor, which in fact introduces to us the practical nihilism of this book. This paper unearths the similarity and the distinction between ZARATHUSTRA and the NARRATOR of Boof-e koor and explores the “passive nihilism” especially in the second part of this book. We also believe that although the NARRATOR has reviewed Nietzsche’s argument in his mind, and apparently is approved of it, and, in the first part, thinks about killing the celestial girl, this girl's deep influence – that is in fact a realization of the extraterrestrial world – and the NARRATOR's passion deter him from being able to practically obliterate influence of the prostitute’s presence from his life, that is the social symbol of the celestial girl.
