| Summary: | Classifying all narratives in a single type is the aim of narratology. Greimas is one of the theorists who, by reducing the number of actants of the propp model, tried to provide a comprehensive model for all narratives. The present research investigated the story of Rostam and Shaghad based on the Greimas' actantial model, the analysis of the status of narration with respect to the dual oppositions, the syntactic pattern and the syntgmes narrative (syntgmes contractual, syntgmes performative and syntgmes disjunctional). Greimas' model has acted dual in this story, and an actant in different situations acts as the opposite and the supporter. The subject actant comes to deceive to eliminate the role of the conflict actant. Breaking and contracting a pact by Shaghad is the main source of the narrative that is formed in the syntgmes contractual. The same thing shapes the syntgmes performative and its actions, ultimately ending up in a positive or negative status in the syntgmes disjunctional. |
