description Ahmed Shakeri in his novel, "Naked against the Wind", deals with the events of a decade after the war in the Kurdistan region, with a new and influential attitude to creating a personality. Diversity and multiplicity of personality and recognition of the role of each of them in the elaboration of the trajectory of the narrative of this novel is worthy of reflection and analysis. Greimas actantial theory as a litter and field of the analysis of this narrative can represent the role of each character in this novel in a detailed model of the three axes of ''desire'', "transfer" and "power", with a comprehensive and complete approach. The results of this research show the adaptation of Greimas actantial model in explaining and analyzing the characters of this novel. In the axis of desire, the main actor in this narrative is "Joseph/ Yosuf''. Valuable object and the main purpose of this narrative, is reinforcement of altruism, Patriotism, religious beliefs and values of sacred defense and martyrdom. What makes Joseph try to achieve this goal and pushes him to do this, is "love, patriotism and memorizing the martyrs and their memories of devotion". Meantime, Joseph is the first person to benefit from this goal and achieve his long dream (martyrdom). Of course, the Canicha people and other people also benefit in this section and they are considered as the subsidiary beneficial owners. The helpers and companions of this narrative, "Abu Khezr, Mullah Idriss and Delaram," and narrative deterrents are "The Komoleh Party, Tarokh and Manijeh".
