RResistance Elements in Farangis

Farangis is the title of a memoir narrated by Mahnaz Fattahi in place of Farangis Heidarpour, a heroine from Gilan-e-gharb. In the present study, resistance elements of the Farangis have been extracted by using descriptive-analytical method and based on the library-study, the frequency of each of these elements has been demonstrated by using diagram. The findings of the study indicate that in this book, the positive elements such as: Anti-xenophobia, religious beliefs, courage and bravery and courage and resistance of women, as well as negative elements such as: bombardment and fusillade, description of martyrs and the wounded, migration and escape of the people and the planting landmines, and enemy are more frequent compared to other elements. Also, the positive elements with 49% and the negative elements with 51% are almost equal; therefore, it can be claimed that the memories of the Holy Defense, in addition to the indices of positive Resistance, has negative elements as well. Apparently, these negative elements do not reflect the negative face of the war, but rather indicate the oppressed Iranian people and the hostility of the invader enemy.
