Abstract

In the field of narration, Gerard Genet has innovations that have been distinguished from two categories of language and tone. Emphasizing the aspect and tone of a fictional work reveals new aspects of it and is an indicator for assessing the quality of literary works. In the Persian literary range, many prose narrative works have been created, one of which is the DarabNameh for Beyghami. The author has succeeded in creating a great work by applying various techniques of narrative. This feature is especially featured in the story of "Firoozshah Among the Fairies and jinns". The review of the story based on the opinions of the Genet analytical method shows that in the narrative context, the inspiration in the domain of the narrative is not limited to the total knowledge capacity of the whole and, by interfering with the characters in the narrative process, on the concrete and concrete dimensions of their work It is infected. Also, the establishment of multiple dialogues instead of focusing on the monologue has been made possible by the use of the second narrative focus, which has had a positive effect on the process of communicating the audience with the production text. The use of the subjective mode at a limited level suggests that the characters in the story are more extroverted and dynamic than introverted and passive. In sum, the tone of the narrative in the story, while animating the characters of the story, has created an appropriate context for various readings of narratives..
