Abstract

The Myth of Farrah-i Izadi is regarded as one of the most important pillars of political thoughts and as one of the main componentsof Ideal King conception in the Ancient Iran. This myth had legitimate political content and function but gradually underwent changes and transformations in terms of its content. The present paper aims at exploringthe mechanism of conceptual transformations to this myth andattempts to investigate the issuevia conceptual analysis and sympathetic perception of historical evidence, chiefly through the lens of comprehensive sociology. Meanwhile, we benefit from Austin’ s Theory of Speech Acts and Peter Winch’ s Meaningful Action. The method of the data collection is based on library research. The results of the study reveal that the Myth of Farrah, within the framework of cultural rules of Sassanid Era, included profound mythological and cosmological contents and themes and contained deep-rooted social meanings which facilitated the understanding and acceptance of its message. Nonetheless, after the collapse of Sassanid dynasty and domination of new cultural values, this myth was re-constructed with the aim of revival of its former political functions. This superficial re-construction and revival occurred while Farrah Myth had lost most of its social functions. Accordingly, Farrah underwent various transformations and alterations in the terms of its form and content, mainly as a result of transformationsto the cultural rules and absence of profound social understandings.
