A Study of the Myth "Phoenix" in the Works of Jean-Marie Gustave Le Clézio and Nima Yushij:"Mondo and other stories" and "Phoenix and Morghe Amen"

The purpose of this paper is to reveal the point of connection between the story of “Mondo and other stories”, by Le Clézio, the contemporary French novelist and the poem of “Phoenix and Morghe Amen”, by Nima Yushij. Mondo’s collections of stories are a combination of myth and reality which, in the dream entertainment of the author, points to the reality and philosophy of human life. However, Nima, political and revolutionary, interprets life with the language of symbols in the course of the new poem and iconoclastically creates symbolic and free prose. Nima’s familiarity with contemporary philosophy and literature of west, on the other hand, and their naturalism and historicity, on the other hand, direct them (the two authors) to the identification and study of human history and its consequences. As a result, the death and birth of phoenix has changed to mental and genuine tool in the discovery of thought of historical human and description of social transformations and reveals the reality of mythical human in the course of verse and prose. This does not come to a conclusion unless the soul and body of human is smoothed in the course of literary masterpieces.
