Abstract

Satire and Humor are forms of lyric literature that have always drawn attention from authors and poets of formal literature. As, in valuation of formal art, Satire tries to follow serious objectives under the guise of laughter and mockery, and its horizons and territories extend to social affairs, its role is also considerable in the folklore and especially in folk legends. Satire in the legends, similar to other texts, is a form of criticism of life and is serious speech in the form of Humor, which can criticize all political, economic, cultural and social arenas. Through a content analysis approach of qualitative and induction type, this study tries to analyze Satire and Humor Techniques in the “ Encyclopedia of Iranian Legends” by Ali Ashraf Darvishiyan and Reza Khandan. Among the objectives of this study is to show satirical Techniques in Iranian folk legends. Based on the research results, satirical Techniques in folk legends include stupidity, obscurity, inconsistency and incompatibility of components and position, personification, Humorous names, Humorous titles, and other Techniques. Among the various applications of Satire in the Folklore legends one can refer to entertainment, criticism, correction and promotion of ethical and educational values. Since, unlike official culture, the folklore culture contains lesser censorship and also, since releasing internal tensions is one of the applications of folklore Satire, many of the mentioned Techniques in Folklore legends are presented through sexual and taboo issues.
