Abstract

"Nazer and Manzoor" written by Vashvih Bafghi is one of the most eloquent and attractive verses of lyrical literature, which was written to welcome Nezami's "Khosro and Shirin" and despite its eloquent expression and story charm, it has been less noticed in the name of this poet in the verses of the 10th century. He is one of the most capable poets in the school of Vasukht because her poet is associated with an easy and restrained language full of honesty, and from the point of view of structuralism, it is similar to some fairy tales. By designing and explaining the narrative structure of fairy tales, Propp has shown that the stories, despite their diversity, have unity in terms of the types of heroes and their functions, so this article tries to examine the narrative structure of the story of the “Nazer and Manzoor”  based on Propp's morphological point of view, in order to evaluate the effectiveness of Propp's model. In the structure of the mentioned system, in the parts of self-work, it tries to show their characters and traits, movements and motivation with a comparative-analytical approach. The result of the investigation shows that the structure of the story consists of twenty-seven actions, five movements and five characters; therefore, the system of “Nazer and Manzoor” collection,  has the specific process of  the story, the characters and actions, and actions that mentioned above are under the morphological model of Propp.
