Nevertheless most of the researchers of Persian language or literature are trying to prove that Dari has been a limited language or a dialect of Persian belonged to some eastern districts of Iran and it has been extended to other parts of Iran by some Samanid governors. This article tries to clarify this subject as far as possible and prove that Dari title has been derived from Sasanid Darbar and has not any relation with eastern governors in third or fourth century.

But they are different in many aspects. In Persian literature all of the terms such as parody, burlesque and travesty fall under the rubric of Naqizeh, and Naqizeh has the overall connotation of these terms. By considering different expressions in the domain of Naqizeh, the present article argues that "burlesque" is a better equivalent of Naqizeh than "parody", although we have used Naqizeh in its ordinary and usual meaning.

In other words, this research tries to introduce the thinking fields that produced artistic works from mystical works. The importance of these fields is in their conscious or unconscious role in the creation of these texts. To achieve this goal, defamiliarization has been used as a criterion for recognizing the artistic aspects of mystical texts. Therefore, by giving a general review of literary theories of 20th century, defamiliarization and foregrounding have been considered in the works of Formalists and Structuralists. In this framework, the function of some of the features of mystical thought such as symbol and interpretation, revelation, relativism, repeated creation and wonder (Hayrat) in artistic creation have been investigated. These features produce a multilayered insight in authors of mystical texts. The results of such insight can be seen in the language of these texts. In this language, defamiliarized features produce an artistic perception in the readers of the texts.

In some of his works, including story and drama, the creation of imaginary beings and the transformation of characters have been used more than any other characteristic of magic realism. Some aspects of this style are reflected in his prominent works such as Azadarane Bayal, Moloos Korpus, Ashofteh Halane Bidar Khab and Tars va larz. Among these aspects is the presence of heterogeneous elements, especially exotic creatures combined of man and animal, in his works. In this paper, for the first time, various kinds of these creatures and human transformations are studied in terms of this style. It seems that the writer used this style because of the hard political and social conditions of intellectualism in 30's, 40's and 50's.
