    Epic is from Hamas, "words of greyhound and means bravery, bravery, bravery and intensity and fortitude in the matter of religion and war, sharpness in work and bravery, bravery and bravery" (Dehkhoda, 1328, vol. 6: 8074) And in the term "an epic poem is a story and narrative with a heroic background and a mythological, ethnic and national color in which events outside the limits of the habit take place or deal with historical events that are not created by the poet's mind in any way" (Rastegar Fasaei, 1380: 337).

    and in the type of epic literature, "the events and acts of bravery and masculinity of the heroes and warriors of a nation or religion and cult are reported and described, who strive for the independence of the country or the formation of the government and the preservation of the religion and religion" (Razmjo, 2001: 23).

    1-2- The history of the epic
