Abstract

Folk literature is one of the most important subsets of Iranian culture, and understanding it plays a significant role in the recognition of hidden aspects of the culture and people›s daily life in different time periods. FOLKTALEs, which are an important part of this literature, have their own elements. Accordingly, authors of the present paper have attempted to find and introduce the major folk elements in Farahi’s Mahboob Al-Gholoub which is a prose FICTION of the Safavieh era. In this work, although it seems that the novelist aims to create heroes and conflicts, and to arouse curiosity and amusement of the reader, but in reality it has a higher goal and wants to promote human values, brotherhood, equality and social justice. Some of the major folk elements of Mahboob Al-Gholoub are as follows: 1- Having a hero who is always the winner against the anti-hero,2- Absolutist characters who are absolutely good or absolutely bad; 3- Inconceivable events, 4- Having a weak plot;5- Generalization; 6- Static characters; 7-Imaginary time and place; 8-Similarity of speaking in heroes; 9-Characters inevitable fate;10- Surprising caused by inconceivable events; 11- Independence of episodes; 12- Obsolescence.
