The novel “Long Distance Races” (Sibaq al-masafat at-tawila) is the story of an English agent in Iran who has headed to this country in order to defeat nationalization of oil industry and safeguard the Britain’s colonial interests in Iran. This novel, whether from centrality of the colonial character or simulation of the orientalist texts, is considered a turning point in the narrative works of "Abdul Rahman Munif". The main objective of this article is to analyze the implications of the post-colonial novel, according to the "History" and "Orientalism". In the historical material, the author cites 1953 coup in Iran, creating a new picture of the evolution of classical colonialism and the emergence of "Neocolonialism". In the “Orientalism” material too, this novel, using orientalist texts cloning, has pictured the collapse of the orientalism foundation and the false dichotomy of "Ego/other" in the post-colonial era in two dimensions of colonizer and colonized.

Postmodernism is one of the most controversial issues in the world of literary criticism, and this is probably due to the nature of postmodernism, which implies complexity, incoherence, disintegration and fragmentation, as well as pervasiveness in many disciplines of the humanities and literary. This theory suggests confusion, lack of unity and harmony, irrationality, imagination and relativism of reality. Hence, many contemporary theorists have addressed the concept of postmodernism through various theories. In this regard, this article, based on a descriptive-analytical approach, examines the features of postmodernism in the novel " Forsan va kahana" by the Saudi author "Munther Al Qabbani". Among the characteristics of the novel is the spatial-temporal anxiety as well as the discrete and incoherent plot of the novel, in addition to the fact that the text of the novel interferes with other scientific, religious and historical texts that indicates the incoherence of the text. Finally, we must say that although this novel is not just a postmodern novel, but the features of postmodernism of the novel outweigh the features of modernism.Keywords: Postmodernism, Contemporary Prose, Munther Al Qabbani, Novel, Forsan va kahana "Knights and Priests".

“The House of Thorns” is a work of the contemporary Iranian writer, Abdolhossein Farzad. The time is stopped for the narrator at seven in the morning. This suspension in timelessness is an opportunity for the narrator to analyze history. His goal is to explore the past to find the moment of human evil; because the end of human dignity has paralyzed the narrator’s brain. This research is descriptive – analytical. The research findings show that it is a metaphorical work. This novel is a metaphor of Noah’s flood and the narrator’s bed is like Noah’s Ark. The storm of “The House of Thorns” and the waves which are hitting the ship of the narrator’s bed and occupying his mind, are metaphors for various waves of thoughts: waves of time, history, art, literature, poetry, philosophy and physics especially Quantum mechanics and till the end of the story and the end of the storm that the rainbow of “knowledge is power” appears, the author like Noah tries to talk about the problematic human and giving meaning to life with help of art ,poetry ,literature and humanistic cinema ,seeking to save mankind and human dignity by the Ark of his thoughts.

After the emergence of changes due to the industrial revolution and the growth of living and economic levels at the same time the relative independence of family members compared to the single core family system which generally had a head named father and all family members depended on him. The difference of opinion became what we know today as the generation gap. In the twentieth century, Michel Foucault presented a broad theory called "discourse analysis" in which he emphasized that words have different meanings in different situations. In this article, we try to examine the image of family relations in the contemporary Algerian family by examining the novel "AlsaghFawghAlsagh" by Amin Al-Zawi and examine the generation gap between family members. The research method in this article is based on a critical method and We intend to explore how and to what extent society changes affect family events and the prevailing discourse in the family within the contemporary novel. We derive in our study from the discourse analysis of Michel Foucault. Discourse for him is used to know the factors outside the text framework and their impact on the content. Perhaps one of the most important points that can be mentioned as a result of this article is the independence of family members and consequently the expression of personal positions and as a result creating differences between different generations and views, which can be said to be a constant conflict between tradition and Modernity also fuels these differences.

Happiness includes a range of soft and intense emotions and enjoying a subject up to happy feeling in life. Forasmuch as a part of happiness concept is structured by language data in addition to literatures, art, custom, etc., we use cognitive metaphor as an effective tool for analyzing language which is one of mind aspects. Cognitive metaphor is attributed to understanding and expression of an abstractive concept based on a more physical concept. In this research, we study data according to Kovecses cognitive theory and intend to find the way of speakers thinking about happiness, understanding and their similarities and differences in the mentioned languages. Importance of cognitive study of this data is that it systematizes their different and scattered range according to names mapping and also accurate cognitive pattern. Data of this research show that derivative feature of Arabic language provides a wide vocabulary variety for happiness conceptualization in this language as if some metaphors of Persian language compared with Arabic samples have more distance with general metaphors and bears further and complicated special cultural features. Also in connection with the metaphor of "happiness is up", "distance from the earth" in Arabic can be more prominent than in Persian.
