Samar Miri , Mustafa Salari (Author in Charge), Behrouz Romanian

Abstract

The reflection of society in literary works is one of the fundamental issues that is evaluated both in sociology and in literature. By studying the literature of each period, one can become aware of the cultural, political and social situation of that period. Because the literature of every age has the color of its society. Shahrnoosh Parsipour is one of the writers whose social events have reflected her time in her works. Therefore, her novels can be examined in the form of sociological critique. This descriptive-analytical study examines works such as "Tuba and the Meaning of the Night", "Dogs and the Long Winter", "Women without Men" and "Free Experiences" based on important social institutions such as family, culture, religion and politics. After reviewing, the author concluded that all the institutions in real society, especially politics, play a decisive role in Parsipour"s works. By depicting society in his work, the author reveals the innumerable sufferings of women and describes their efforts to be free with positive and negative behaviors.
