Abstract
Poets and writers have long been interested in the use of storytelling and anecdotes to express the mystical meanings of the word. In fact, the narrative begins with human his-tory, and the cultural context of no nation is without narrative. Structural perspective on literary works provides a better understanding of the nature of literature by exploring the intra-textual elements and discovering their linkage pattern, and by expanding the processing patterns by presenting superior literary creation techniques Literary works helped. In this paper, based on the descriptive-analytic method and the inductive meth-od, "The Neonates and the Mad" narrative of Attar's tragedy - as one of the classical Persian-based narrative works - has been studied with a structuralist perspective to ana-lyze. The methodologies of the contradictions and contradictions in the text allow for a new reading of Attar's story and intellectual angles. The results of the study show that in this story, the components of plot and narrative, narrator's position and angle of view have been used by Attar in a manner that best suits the epistemological, social and ethi-cal concepts ( The very nature of the mystical and mystical mystic identity that is part of the national identity has been well expressed in itself. It has been described and has not been disturbed in the process of communicating the audience to the production text.
