A Comparative analysis of two stories: ‘The Woman Who Lost Her Husband’ by Sadegh Hedayat and ‘The Woman Destroyed’ by Simon de Beauvoir

Journal Title: International Research Journal of Applied and Basic Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 10, Issue 6

Abstract

Family is the main social institution that is made up with the marriage of man and woman and continues with a mutual love, confidence and forgiveness. Perhaps, the main fatal blow that can cause the disruption of this sacred institution is the betrayal of one of the main members of the family to the love of the wife. By comparing the two Iranian and European stories in this article, the attempt is to compare the men’s unkindness to this sacred institution in two Western and Eastern societies and to represent the cultural differences between the thoughts, beliefs and behaviors.
