Human beliefs are important because they are considered as the primary capitals of folk literature. The significance of folk literature is due to the fact that it is the foundation of refined and cultured literature. The sociopolitical novel “Souvashoun”, which placed its author Simin Daneshvar with other great Iranian novelists due to its fame, is a combination of literary scholarship, collectivism and pluralism; proof of beliefs and elements in the folk literature mentioned in this work is not a shortcoming, rather it is a piece of evidence showing eloquence and rhetoric. Contemplating this work of literature, the present article come up with the pieces of evidence showing the manifestation of beliefs and folk literature elements, as well as such folk beliefs as totem, taboo, fetishism, animism, manna, noma and superstition, which are primarily described and defined. Then several instances of such beliefs are extracted from the text. Specifications and functions of the folk literature are noted, and the narrative literature’s status as well as Souvashoun and its position are explained. It is also proved that Souvashoun, apart from its pluralism, is free from many unpleasantnesses of its contemporary prose like immeasurable vulgarity, fanaticism and senseless modernisms.

Henna is a plant with natural binary attraction including nice color,
and specific properties, which has popularity and application among the nations and tribes. This plant has ornamental and medicinal properties. In addition, it is one of the most applicative cases in celebrations and racial customs. Henna is used in Hennabandan (an old custom in the ancient history of Iran). This celebration has been held on specific customs in different parts of Iran since the previous centuries because of insignificant customs and geographical positions of different areas in Iran. Most of these customs have the same origin, and their executive methods are similar. Although some customs have
the same origin, they are held with different methods. This article
compares the Hennabandan custom of ten towns and villages in Iran
by using documentary way and studying the books and articles written
about this typical custom and the applications of Henna in the culture
of Iranian people. Final results are achieved through functionalism and
diffusionnism.

Study of Magic Vicinity in Folk Proverbs
Ali-Reza Asadi
1
Mohamad-Reza khoman
2
Since, proverbs are composed of bits, line, concise sentences and
musical metaphor: they are considered a type of Persian literature.
One of the reasons for the spread of proverbs is that they indicate the
general and pervasive thought or experience in the shortest terms. In
addition, the music (the use of the balance of sound in speech) has a
big impact on the development and spread of proverbs, and causes the
listener to enjoy the magical word. Sometimes, the music is so strong
that the collective memory of the community, regardless of the
meaning of some words, enjoys the harmony and melody within it.
Shafie Kadkani named it "magic vicinity". In this study, the book
"Dästännämeye Bahmanyäry" by Ahmad Bahmanyary, which is about
six thousand proverbs, is examined from this perspective. The results
of research show that fifty proverbs in this book enjoy a variety of
musical balance and literary industries as parallelogram rhyme, pun,
and phonological layout and repeat, which are the largest in the
musical of proverbs. Also by presenting numerous examples, the
theory of Shafie Kadkani about the formation of some proverbs based
solely on magic vicinity is proved.

Ferdowsi's Shahnameh has always been interest of readers, and many
authors have tried to imitate it. Like other Iranian orators, the Kurd
poets have recreated different stories of Shahnameh with innovations
and sometimes translations. No doubt, the introduction and thinking of
the epic verses after Shahnameh can expose some of the important
issues of this valuable work and be effective on the morale of unity
and patriotism among Iranian ethnic groups; therefore, in this study,
we first introduced the verse of "Kordish Shahmghal and Rostam" and
then compared it with the narration of " Shahnameh's Rostam and
Shaghad", Salby's historical narratives, Toomar Naghali Shahnameh,
Haft Lashkar, and Ferdowsinameh.

Ilami Folk Riddles
Alireza shohani
1
Riddle is a literary genre, which has roots in the ancient layers of
human history encompassing the entire range of human
culture. Although the most important characteristic of this genre is
that it has been transmitted orally, its written records in Persian
literature and culture date back to the pre-Islamic literature and the
Avestan language. Therefore, it seems that the riddle-telling tradition
has prevailed among all Iranian ethnic groups and sub-cultures,
especially The Kurds and the people of Ilam. Among the most
important reasons behind the popularity of riddle-telling tradition in
the culture and language of Ilam, one can mention the aspects of
entertainment, creativity, memory and mind enhancement, which are
associated with the genre. Generally, Ilami riddles can be categorized
into six groups: plants and fruits; animals and animal parts; human
and human moods and organs and tissues; man-made tools and
products; natural elements and components; and human sciences.
Obviously, the folk culture and the riddle tradition, which is called
‘Chaw-cha’ (roughly ‘what and what’) in the Ilami native language,
today are on the verge of annihilation, and are being endangered due
to the passing away of the previous generation who preserved the
tradition in their hearts, and also due to the advent of modern
communication technologies like TV, radio, Internet, mobile phones,
satellites, etc.

Satveh village, one of the desert villages in Semnan province, according to
the administrative divisions belongs to Shahrood city. The occupation of
most people in this village has been agriculture and ranching from years ago.
Dialect of this village, with more similarities to the ancient Khorāsān
dialects, has remained largely intact for various reasons including the
inaccessibility to the city. Study of words, phrases and terms in this dialect,
except anthropological and linguistic benefits, may be effective in solving
some problems about the Persian language and meaning of the ancient texts.
In present research, the words and phrases of ranching in Satveh were
collected with thematic order. In addition, sometimes, other issues such as
words derivation and some neology rules and techniques used in this dialect
are discussed
