Abstract

The Thousand and One Nights, as a prose text mixed with verse, is a narrative work in the domain of fiction. Integration of prose and poetry in the narrative structure of this work, with the main narrative load on the prose, paves the way for studying the role and place of poetry within the prose narration of THE THOUSAND AND ONE NIGHTS. Pondering about such features leads to a better appreciation of the whole structure and methods of narration in this and other similar works. Unlike the public opinion that deems poetry - as well as the entertaining narration of 'Hezar o Yek Shab' - fun and amusing, and thus remove able, in narrations of this collection, poetry is not only able to describe and make the narration more pleasant by providing ravishing statements, but also stimulates the narrative path of the work by making a coherent attachment with prose, and using maneuvers, such as creation of atmosphere, denouement, and plot change, advances the story. This paper aims at studying spiritual and verbal functions of poetry in THE THOUSAND AND ONE NIGHTS, investigating the quality of the association between poetry and prose in fiction and the role of poetry in forming this collection. The results of the study show that poetry, in 41 percent of the tales, has an active role and improved the plot; however, in 59 percent of the stories, it has no effect on the narrative trajectory of the story and is used for decoration and style enhancement.
