چکیده:
Ferdowsi's Shahnameh is a collection of the culture, rituals, myths, and history of the Iranian nation, which, beyond its systematic structure and literary and epic crafts, is also a blend of the actions, ideals, ideas, and perspectives of Iranians. We do not know whether Ferdowsi truly sought to reconcile the Iranian worldview with Islam, or if he independently believed that the history of human life revolves around a specific type of epistemology that he found in the collection of myths or the interpretations and narratives of the Avesta and Zoroastrian literature; however, what is undeniable is the relationship between all these elements that was able to fit within Ferdowsi's mind and manifest in his poetic taste and pen. One of the noteworthy parts of Ferdowsi's Shahnameh is the prehistoric section, or what is supposedly related to the world of myths and prehistoric humans. In this section, one of the most beautiful and memorable stories is the narrative of the dominance of Zahhak, the end of the golden age of humanity (the reign of Jamshid), and the uprising of Fereydun, which has been addressed many times by various researchers. In this article, by comparing this story in the Shahnameh with the 'Tan Pasin' section of Bundahish, which is a beautiful and literary interpretation of the Avestan religion and rituals, the similarities and the relationship between these two are examined.
