Abstract

Myth basically begins with the observation of magnificent natural phenomena. The ancient tribes described their observations of nature in metaphorical language. mythologists have gone so far as to linguistically and ontologically develop the real meaning of the names of the gods, objects, and movable stories through linguistic and etymological evolution. But the linguistic approach in mythology does not depend on lexical ontological examination, but on the method of examining linguistic symbols that are told in a layer of mythical metaphors and stories; It goes towards cohesion, not language. In the present study, the Shahnameh text was selected due to its original and non-translational context and Gilgamesh due to its ancient literary text. Since the approach is linguistic research, several paragraphs of the Italian text have also been adapted to the Persian text in order to avoid linguistic error. The present study is a descriptive-analytic one conducted in libraries. After examining the linguistic body of the research, it was found that although the symbols and symbols of the language are automatic and related to the language of the text, although in the outer and superficial layers of the text, in the textual layers of the text, with reference to the realities of life. Humanity represents the relations of language and myth and the influence of myth is greater than language.
