Abstract

In every story or anecdote, certain methods, designs and methods of narration are employed. In recent decades, literary critics have focused more on the structure and how the works are formed than on the content. In the present research, using the descriptive-analytical research method, we have analyzed and examined the structure of Zembil-Frosh, an ancient folkloric literary work of Kurdish literature, using the practical concepts of the typology of narrative discourse from the point of view of "jaap Lintvelt" to determine: 1) What narrative structure is this story based on? 2) To what extent does this poem contain all the main elements of themes of a narrative text? As a result, the structure of the poem as a highly detailed oral text contains most of the main components of the narrative text while the poet has been able to bring this verse to the level of a story worthy of expression. The details of the theory of Jaap Lintvelt on the distinction between the real writer, the non-real writer, the real reader and the non-real reader, which has changed to the real narrator and the non-real narrator, are well evident. Also, the difference between the narrator and the character and the real writer and the unreal writer has been evaluated and investigated.
