Description
Summary:In each of his works, Abbas Maroufi has considered the social, political, and historical conditions of the society by considering one of the social classes, and through this, he has challenged the situation of the society with a critical point of view combined with humor and elaboration. The "intellectual" class, women "victims and surrender" and "exiles" are among the groups that play the main characters in the three novels "Symphony of the Dead", "Year of the Riot" and "Totally Special". "Man" and "His Concerns" are the main focus of famous novels, and his main way of processing his fictional characters is to "look back" and "childhood" of the characters in order to examine the problems, internal conflicts, and pay attention to their disorders. The novel "Symphony of the Dead" can be considered a new interpretation of the story of Abel and Cain with a surrealist atmosphere that examines the social, political, and historical conditions of Iranian intellectuals at that historical period. The novel "Year of Rebellion" is a narrative of violence and coercion that has been noticed by women throughout history, and Nosha, as a character who represents women in society, is a "victim and surrender" character who does not give up to save herself and surrenders to forced marriage. The novel "Totally Special" is also a story about the life of Abbas Irani, an exiled journalist who is forced to emigrate from Iran to Germany. In this work, the author has included various aspects of his biological experiences. This research tries in a descriptive-analytical way to answer the question that what are the most important components of modernism in Abbas Maroufi's "human-centered" novels? The findings indicate that "tendency to the world within the characters", "fluid flow of the mind", "internal conflict", "rejection of the narrative method in the novel" and "different way of characterization" are the most important components. The manifestations of modernism are in the novels in question.
