    Persian language and literature orientation

    Abstract

    Folk culture is a part of the culture of the mass of people, which transmits various imagination, feelings, wishes and thoughts from one generation to another and transforms aesthetic standards. And it reveals the morality of every period of a people's life. The villagers' interest in preserving traditions and the necessity of their way of life with nature increases their imagination. Folk culture and folklore are a collection of knowledge, beliefs and behaviors of our group, which do not conform to the scientific and logical standards of society, and their implementation is based on habit, imitation, similitude, and entertainment. These knowledges include customs, birth, death, marriage, and the way of life, agriculture, celebrations, prophecies, superstitions, customs, games, songs, stories, and other customs and beliefs that express how people think and live during different ages. Masoud Saad Salman, a great poet of the 5th and early 6th centuries of Hijri, although his fame is mainly due to his poetry, most of his divan is devoted to popular culture. In his folk poems, he deals with the popular beliefs of his time. The purpose of this research is to examine the examples of popular culture in the court of Masoud Saad, the beliefs of the late 5th century and the beginning of the 6th century Hijri and the reasons for the tendency to these beliefs.

    Introduction and Generalities

    - Generalities

    1-1- Introduction

    Beliefs and folk knowledge originated from human social life, which after centuries, although some of their elements or structures have undergone changes, but they have been passed down from one generation to another and have remained until today.  

    Folklore (Folklore) which in Persian language is the culture of the people, popular culture, common knowledge, mass culture and so on. It has been translated, it was first mentioned by the Englishman William John Toms (in 1846 AD). According to him, this word refers to the researches that should be done in the field of habits, customs and observations, superstitions and songs that have remained from ancient times. The acceptance of this term was accompanied by resistance among researchers. More than anything, these resistances were related to the ambiguities that existed in this term itself and also in Toms's definition of it. Despite such resistances, in a not so long time, this term found universal acceptance among scholars and opinion. There have been many definitions of folklore. These definitions are sometimes very close to each other and sometimes have a relatively far distance from each other. Referring to the important encyclopedias of the world, it is telling about such differences. We also face such differences in specialized cultures. For example, in one of the specialized dictionaries, called "Standard Culture of Folklore, Mythology and Legend", there are nearly twenty one definitions of the term folklore. has In fact, the concept of this term is directly related to the definition of Folk and Lore. For example, in one of the literary cultures published in Persian language, Folk is considered to be "folk" and according to this inference about Folk Literature, which was a part of popular culture, it is said: "Folk literature is prevalent among societies where the majority of people are unable to read and write". In another Persian culture, the terms Folk Lore and Folk-Literature are considered as the same concept and the following is stated below them: "Popular literature is popular literature or popular culture or folklore in contrast to official literature, which is a creation of literate and educated people's minds and is a collection of songs and folk tales. Plays, proverbs, magic and folk medicine that are popular among primitive and illiterate people.. In another Persian culture, the terms Folk Lore and Folk-Literature are considered as the same concept and the following is stated below them: "Popular literature is popular literature or popular culture or folklore in contrast to official literature, which is a creation of literate and educated people's minds and is a collection of folk songs and stories. Plays, proverbs, magic and folk medicine that are popular among primitive and illiterate people" (Panahi Semnani, 1376: 22)

    Based on these inferences and definitions, societies where the majority of people can read and write do not have folklore. Based on these definitions, it can also be said that even in societies where literacy has not become common, those groups that are blessed with literacy do not have folklore. Such definitions are not limited to the Persian language, but such definitions can also be found among Europeans. Unlike the above definitions, which are based on a limited definition of The word "Folk" is there, nowadays folklorists identify and research various types (genres) of popular literature among industrialized and advanced societies. For example, among the workers of industrial societies or even among the educated people of any nation, there are jokes, jokes, jokes, and songs that are undoubtedly in the category of folklore. Along with these inferences, which are based on a limited understanding of "people" or "folk", we can refer to inferences and definitions. Kurds who differ in the definition of the word "Culture" (Lore). "Some consider only literature, art and other spiritual achievements to be synonymous with culture" (Mirsadeghi, 1377: 23) and some consider a more general definition and include the material components of society as well.

    Despite all the differences in this There are inferences and definitions, almost all of them agree on the same thing; That is, about the method of folklore transmission based on this common aspect, folklore is said to be that part of knowledge and art that is transmitted orally and language to language, from one generation to another. This common facet, although it represents a part of reality, cannot be a precise and comprehensive definition by itself. Because many folklore materials and elements can be cited as examples that are not transmitted verbally. For example, the poems, sentences and pseudo-sentences written on trucks and trolleys are among folklore. Mementos written on doors and walls, inscriptions on tombstones, prayers, charms, contracts, traditional purchase and promise letters, wills, and more are all important components of folklore that are preserved and transmitted only through writing. It is also possible to generalize the limitation of the above definition about popular art and dance in particular. Dance is only acquired through watching and practice and cannot be said to be transmitted through language. In addition to the above, it is possible to mention the knowledge that is transmitted orally from one generation to another, but is not considered folklore. As Dr. Fereydoun Vahman, one of the pioneers of scientific folklore in Iran, said thirty years ago, instead of trying to provide a single definition From folklore, it is better to raise the issues and categories of folklore research and reach an agreement on it. In other words, let's determine the field of activities of this science and reach a unified opinion about it.

    After this general acquaintance with the folk literature of the Iranian people, in this research we will go into more details of the common knowledge (folklore) of the Iranian people in Diwan Masoud Saad. 

    This research consists of five chapters, the first chapter is dedicated to the generalities of the research, in the following chapters, the following are discussed in order:
