Abstract

In almost all cultures, plants have been the source of symbolic art. Among such symbols found in imaginative symbolism is the spirit of the plant symbolized by a bird. This symbol is found in the story of the wandering nightingale. The way the protagonist of the story tells his sad story as a bird after he dies becomes meaningful when its symbols are compared with similar myths. Symbolism, as man's most ancient creative thought manifested in myths, art and religion, is rooted in folk stories. Viewed this way, the myth and the symbol could be said to have derived from the same source. Even though the mythical symbolic thought is expressed through symbols, the myth is not only symbolic but explains the symbols as well. In this paper, the writer first presents a brief explanation on the mythical symbols of the bird and the tree in the Persian culture by comparing them with similar symbols in Indo-European cultures, and then explains the symbols of the folk tale "The Wandering Nightingale".
