Abstract:
the approach of archetypal criticism, which has its foundation in anthropology, is interdisciplinary in nature. this method is particularly prominent in the study of epic works, such as ferdowsi's shānāmeh, due to the deep-rooted archetypes and mythological foundations present in these texts. the collective unconscious plays a dominant role in great mythological and mystical works, as evidenced by the presence of motifs such as the repetition of cosmic processes, rituals, gods, and supernatural elements. as a result, these texts, and particularly shānāmeh, are highly suitable for the analysis of archetypal elements. the purpose of this research is to investigate and analyze the archetypal connection between plants and humans in myths, specifically focusing on the stories of siavash and kei-khosrow. this research employs a descriptive-analytical method and utilizes jung's critique of archetypes to analyze the archetypal and genealogical aspects of the vegetative reason. the findings of this research indicate that the "kin plant" (coral plant or erythrina corallodendron) that grows from siavash's blood is a symbol of the archetype of human reason and plant descent of man, which is manifested in the existence of kei-khosrow.
