Ferdowsi's attention to this aspect and his solicitude to causal relations of events in the epic stories is one of the brilliant aspects of Iran's national epic.But after the accuracy to some of the epic stories such as "Rustam and Sohrab", it becomes clear that the plot in many cases,is infirm and weak and many questions in different parts of the story remain unanswered.Due to the extraordinary care of Ferdowsi to the plot in the other stories, theshortcomings of the story of Rostam and Sohrab, whether caused by successive distortionsto add to its more attractions and getit in an ethical framework, Or due to recurrent deletions consciously or unconsciously makes the most central and basic story lines to be loosed, so the plot seemsinadequacy. |
