Abstract

With the development of new theories, the critique of literary works has taken a different path, and new areas such as interdisciplinary studies have emerged that they have led to the recognition of new capacities and perceptions of literary works. One of these studies is between fiction and dramatic literature. These two fields have been connected for a long time and have become very close in the contemporary period, especially with the development and expansion of cinema, so today, the drama uses the capacities of fiction and fiction uses some features of drama to some extent. Fiction literature as the basis of dramatic and cinematic works has a significant role in the production of these works. With this explanation, this study tries to critique the two works "Cosima or almost Grazia" by "Grazia Deledda" and " Lidded Mirrors" by "Houshang Golshiri" based on the model of Gustav Freytag, a German playwright, and critic. The Freytag pattern is essentially a theatrical structure that reveals events in chronological order in a novel, film or other work of fiction. This model is a proposed pyramid for analyzing the narrative structure of tragic stories and includes five parts or stages, including Introduction, Rise, climax, Return or Fall, and Catastrophe, Allows the study of works based on a three-curtain structure. The method of this research is descriptive-analytical and library and documentary method in the form of comparative study. Based on the research findings, these two works correspond to the five stages of this model and have a dramatic structure. Although these two works are from two different schools and styles; But their conformity with this pattern shows that these two works have a common structure and beyond the narrative, they also have dramatic feature and have the ability to pay for a three-act structure that is considered as a narrative model in drama.
