Abstract:
The story of Joseph, as one of the most well known story of Quran, has always attracted interpreters. In these interpretations, in addition to what has been written as a main text in Quran, some items have been repeated which don't follow the common narrative pattern and seem to be different from the general structure of Iranian stories specifically those categorized in Iran's mystical narrations. These differences have not been scrutinized.  To analyze these differences, the structuralism approach is still a firm approach for one can analyze the narrative from a general point of view.  It is then possible to examine these structures from different perspectives.  The aim of this study is to analyze the structure of the story of Joseph in these interpretive texts: Translated tabari's interpretation (A group of translators), the story of Joseph (Ahmad ibn Mohammad Zeyd Tousi), Kashf-ul-Asrar va Eddat-ul-Abrar (Ahmad ibn Mohammad Al-Meybodi) and Rawd al-djinan wa- rawh al -djanan (Abul-futuh Razi). The method of this paper is analysis of the plot and sequence in the narratives, and after that, the similar functions are going to be evaluated and a general pattern will be extracted. The data analysis showed that although the functions of this story in each context are different, one can distinguish 19 similar functions like Vladimir Prop's work. It is also possible to reduce these 19 functions in 4 fundamental narrative units like Toudorf'’s work. This general pattern probably is compatible with Quran and other interpretations.
