Modern Devices in Holy Defense Novels (with Emphasis on Man-e ou and Bagh-e Talo)

After globalization in the field of European arts and literature, modernism became the source of fiction in Iran and the Iranian writers tested modernist writing. Meanwhile, some of the writers of the holy defense also gradually turned to modern writing techniques by completing the documentary record of war events and the structure of realist novels. The result of this approach is the manifestation of fictional devices in the sacred defense novels and the liberation of these works from the usual practices of realist stories. Reza Amirkhani, in his novel Man-e ou and Majid Gheisari in the book of Bagh-e-Talo, with some of the modernist implications (lack of linearity of narrative time, angular change of sight, complexity and negligence of personality, subjective and limited time and space, the representation of the inner reality, the author's absence in the text, loneliness and technical uncertainty) are on the path to modern fiction literature. The authors of this paper will assess how to apply the new methods of modern fiction writing in these works. The most important assumptions of the present research emphasize the fact that the authors of these novels have attempted to reflect some of the modernist elements in their works based on the mechanisms of modern novels.
