Morphology of the Tale of Pariaby Shamloo (Based on Vladimir Prop's theory)

In this paper there has been an attempt to conduct an analysis on structure and narrative system of Shamloo's Paria tale so that by understanding movements and automatic actions in Paria's tale, first of all functions and sub-functions in the tale are enumerated, and then a great deal of attention is paid to events and sequence of automatic actions, combination and interchange of this automatic action. Besides, the amount of effect of every movement on narration will be discussed, firstly, to conclude that this tale of Shamloo has been based on nine functions and five sub-functions. Secondly, automatic actions of characters in the tale sometimes have no chronological order and no logical sequence of time, and based on its poetic texture, we are faced with several substitutions and replacements of sub-functions. Thirdly, some of these sub-functions have been narrated like narrative clauses, and some other can be implied using structure of tale or by identifying clues from other sub-functions.
