Abstract

In this scholarly investigation, we delve into the narrative of the legendary battle between Rustam and Esfandiar, aiming to unveil the nuanced ideological underpinnings woven within the text. Our analysis traverses various contextual dimensions, including the historical background of the text and its revered status within the tradition. Furthermore, we meticulously examine the linguistic intricacies—ranging from lexical choices to syntactical structures—and the rhetorical strategies employed, alongside an exploration of stylistic elements. Through this multifaceted approach, we strive to elucidate the latent ideological discourse embedded within the narrative. The tale of Rustam and Esfandiar's clash resonates with themes of national sovereignty, the steadfast defense of liberty, and the struggle against oppressive forces across diverse realms. Moreover, it offers insights into the author's critique of prevailing power dynamics and societal injustices.
