Abstract

Colors are among the most dominant visual elements that have had a crucial role in the representation of man´s beliefs and imaginations. Throughout the history, with the use of colors, many artists have been able to convey their inner desires and feelings. FERDOSI Toosi, the famous Iranian poet, has very skillfully and artistically used colors in SHAHNAME. The element of color has been mentioned in SHAHNAME for 4197 times, 32.73% includes black and white, and 67.27% of it being other colors. Red, used 468 times, stands in the third place after black and white. It mostly symbolizes life and death and has correspondence with other nations’mythical beliefs. Yellow has been used for 313 times. The epical kings of SHAHNAME are surrounded with a golden light, and they have golden crowns and palaces. The most dominant relation between this color in SHAHNAME and the myths of other nations is the role it has in the clothes of a bride and the shroud of the dead. Purple and Green with their symbolic functions, are among the most used colors in SHAHNAME. FERDOSI’s poetic approach toward these colors has been studied and analyzed in this article.
