Abstract
This analysis explores the two discourse systems of Shushi and action in the story "Ali Misha-Za," one of the most renowned epic tales of Bakhtiari. Each of these systems possesses its own distinctive characteristics and structures, significantly influencing the creation of meaning and the experiences of the characters. The Shushi discourse system particularly focuses on the impact of emotions and the emotional states of Shushis. This system employs a nonlinear and indirect approach to examine how meaning is formed through the interaction of Shushis with their environment and surrounding elements. In this context, two major subcategories—sensory-perceptual and tension-emotional—are introduced as key components of this system.This research aims to examine and analyze the transition from the action system to the Shushi system in the epic story "Ali Misha-Za." This study is conducted using a descriptive-analytical approach and relies on library resources. Within this semiotic framework, utilizing Shushi, action, and tension patterns, the research elucidates relevant topics for the reader. By examining various sections of the story, it analyzes the sensory-perceptual and emotional underpinnings that lead to diverse actions within the narrative. The findings of this study indicate that the discourse system of this story is not solely dependent on the actions of the characters, and the meaning of the text is interpreted through the various dimensions of the interaction between Shushis and actors with the environmental elements of the story.
