Abstract
The story of “Rostam and Šaqâd” is one of the most technical and coherent narratives in the Šâhnâmeh. In this story, the most prominent hero, Rostam, is removed from the narrative flow. His interest and attachment to Rostam caused Ferdowsi to show great sensitivity and obsession in removing Rostam from the narrative. In order to remove this national figure, Ferdowsi had to exert a lot of linguistic and psychological precision to make the death of such a great and invincible character appear reasonable. As a concrete and systematic approach, new criticism attempts to show the verbal patterns, harmony, coherence, and the internal unity of the components in a work by giving authenticity to the text. The premise of this article is that Ferdowsi tried to make the death of a hero like Rostam believable to the reader by using categories called “trust game” and “emotional deception”. Premises such as “charming”, “persuading”, “creating crisis and urgency”, “creating astonishment”, “transforming my story into ours”, “collusion”, “attracting trust”, “accelerating trust”, and “conspiracy” make Rostam’s murder believable to a great extent. In this article, using the method of qualitative and precise description and analysis of the text, an attempt is made to evaluate Ferdowsi’s linguistic and psychological premises for the justification of the death of his great hero.
