Description
Summary:The present paper investigates the history of the development of the Persian prose in the recent past one hundred years. The main purpose of this research is to provide a brief history of the contemporary Persian prose, based on the definition of periodization and influences of contemporary discourses since the beginning and up to the nineties (solar calendar). In the periodization presented here, the development of the contemporary Persian prose in relation to social structure and its crises has been considered. The paper shows that familiarity with modernity and related discourses have paved the way for major developments in Persian prose and that the connection between these developments and the socio-political structure of the Iranian society has led to the formation of different periods (five suggested periods) in the history of Persian prose. These periods are: The Constitutional Period, the first Pahlavi Period, the second Pahlavi Period, the Islamic Revolution Period and since seventies to the present.
