Characteristics of epic death on Shahnameh with emphasis on battle scenes of Shahnameh Baysanghari

Abstract

In this paper, we examine the characteristics of epic death in Ferdowsi's Shahnameh. Ferdowsi's Shahnameh is a work full of deep and twisted mysteries, the mysteries that have always driven human thought and laid the foundation for thinking in human psyche. One of these complex and confidential passwords for Ferdowsi is the secret of death, and what is the way of death. In the study of epic death indices in this research, five important indicators of "Powerfulness, Family Fatigue, Name and Fame, Injury and Fraud" were analyzed. The results showed that the angel of death has full presence in all Shahnameh. The whole of Shahnameh is nothing but a struggle between death and life, the heavens and the earth, the deceit and determination and the arbitrariness. Of course, in all the stories of Shahnameh, it is death that overcomes life, and the tactic always fails to appreciate. This is an incredible process that has a great presence throughout Shahnameh, a fact that is adapted to the reality of the world and human life. In the Shahnameh, Ferdowsi describes the world with various concepts such as "gates", "time", "old days", "time", "dhar", "time round", "long wheel".
