Abstract

Bahram Beyzyai is one of the prominent Iranian writers, researchers and artists who has created valuable and abiding works in the field of drama. Although some scattered works has been done in a few writings to introduce the typology of his works, but it is hard to find a certain classification and typological analysis of his works which has been scientifically accomplished. Among the theories of typology, Northrop Frye's theory of archetypes has a noteworthy place and can be considered as a functional classification of typology. He accommodates each of the literary genres of Comedy, romance, tragedy, and irony / humor with one of the Myths of Spring, summer, autumn and winter, and assumes six types or phases for each of them that results in an accurate inter-typical classification. So, two outstanding works of Beyzyai named "Four Boxes" and "In the Presence of Wind" can be evaluated and criticized typologically on the basis of Frye's theory. Through a method of qualitative analysis and based on library and documentary studies, it has been tried, in present research, to propose a typological analysis of above mentioned plays on the basis of Northrop Fry's theory of archetypes. The results show that "Four Boxes" and "In the Presence of Wind" should be classified as the first type of Comedy.
