Time is a significant and essential component in the creation of a novel. It has such a fundamental position in narrative, some critics believe that the most significant feature of narrative identification is its time. The authors’ playing with time increase the attractiveness of narrative, and indicates the way s/he chooses the events. By going through the authors’ playing with time, we realize the significance of an event in the author's view to achieve her/his goal. Genette, French structuralist theorist, has played a significant role in the development of the concept of time in narrative, as one of the important components of the advancement of narrative. Considering this issue, the present research paper has explored affecting factors on the speed of narrative, through a descriptive-analytical approach in Sa'edi’s Smiling Tatar in the light of Genette's Narratology. The speed of narrative is explored to find out the duration of actions/events over time and find out what the portion of a book is devoted to them in a specific span of time. The results of this research indicate that in Sa'edi’s Smiling Tatar, the author creates a modern story by creating a narrative, based on non-linear structure, in which the element of the time is very cardinal. Based on the concept of time in Genette's narratology, it can be concluded that in different parts of Sa'edi’s Smiling Tatar, due to having a lot of reducing factors of the text narrative speed, the validity is negative and the speed of narration is slow.

One of the ways of life continuation of the myths is their modification into tale or story, especially vulgar tales. One of such stories is “Gol & NoWrouz” of “Khajooy-e-Kermani” in which one can notice the ancient myths and legends. In this paper, the mythical deep structure of this story has been scrutinized based on familiarization (social acquaintance) rituals and symbols. The authors of this paper assume that one can notice the traces of familiarization ceremonies and rituals in the deep structure of these stories. According to this pre-assumption and by analyzing the contents of these types of stories, adjustability of these stories with familiarization ceremonies has been proved. One can notice most of the elements and ceremony phases of familiarization such as isolation, separation, death, rebirth, enlightenment on the tree foot and hard tests (torture) of the knowledgeable old person (guide) in these stories In addition to these, there are other symbolic elements and ancient patterns which are connected with the main theme (familiarization) and they have been analyzed accordingly

The mythical critique as one of the approaches to contemporary literary criticism explains the nature and characteristics of myths and their role in literature. In this article, we analyzed Garshaspname Asadi Tusi's based on Pearson's view, which is one of mythical critique viewpoints. Garshasb's life consists of various trips that each journey gives rise to one of the characteristics of his personality. And then his personality is complete. The giraffes of the Gershaphas show his passage from his stage to life and then himself. With the advent of the ancient pairs of the pattern, the background to the birth of the sacred child, Khodabano, the death and rebirth, the ideal of the city and .... Garshasb, the hero of these trips, fell in love with his inner and social journey through various obstacles and trials. And conquer on fairy instead of blending with him and perform Sacrifice ceremony And what inspires the immortality of the spirit of Garshasb is the awareness and cognition that the traveler gains from the father and other helpers during the journey.

Islamic mysticism, have taken deep-seated concepts such as the material life, the dignity of man in the universe and, ultimately, his universal life. Existentialism is considered attention to individuality, the status of existence, freedom, ethics and responsibility, are based on the unity of man. In this regard, Sana'i Ghaznavispoke in his work, "Hadiqeh al-Haqiqa", according to the position of man in the context of the mystical thought around it, and Sartre in his fiction "nausea" has been devoted to examining the status of man in the realm of being. This research attempts to make a comparative study of the position of man in the two worldviews on the basis of the works discussed.These findings suggest that, despite the fundamental differences in thought, human standing in both high and precious intellectual schools, as well as the one in existence, is discussed. Both schools of thought invoke him for the sake of human excellence and the transcendence of existential existence. Sanei seeks to achieve this goal in the mystical drive and follow the Shari'a and Sartre in the Nouveau novel, which he considers to be transcendental affairs, including the creation of art or the participation in the writing process.
