Abstract

The Conference of the Birds -1117- by Farid Ud-Din Attar, as a Persian Sufi masterpiece, presents the symbolic plan of the good life in the form of allegorical epic. This study employs Hardenberg’s and Fisher’s theatrical frameworks to demonstrate that this story is a resource of good life. Conference travels to the West through translation. Thereafter, it returns to Iran with humanistic interpretation while negating the dominant Islamic discourse of Iran. This study aims to examine if the story is distinguished by its actors including writers, publishers, and readers in Iran after the entrance of Western humanistic retranslations. If so, what their inferential values are. Moreover, the humanistic perception of this story is held by these retranslations or it has been formed beforehand. To fulfill the purpose seven focus group including 81 children and teenagers were organized. The findings reveal that Conference is recognized as a resource by the actors and the humanistic interpretation and values have been shaped independent of the retranslations.
