Discourse in stories is formed through a combination of meaningful and reciprocal relations between narrator and listener and in association with socio-political and extratextual factors. This is constructed via the appearance and dominance of love-related themes rather than chivalry and heroic, as related to narrative links between the structure and functions of love. Dârâbnâmeh, due to its associations with social happenings and the listener’s needs during the period of creating and recreating of the stories (i.e., Sasanian, Ghaznavids, or Ghorian), prepares a good ground for this research. This was studied at two levels, namely, structure and function of love. The findings reveal that in replacing the love-related themes with those of chivalry, love reconceptualisation is primarily shaped. This means that the story’s reliance on one of its reflective settings, such as epic-religious texts or the time of recreation, is revealed. The narrator, later, by focusing on that earlier reconceptualised love illustrates love affairs through four constructs, namely, lovers’ dates, problems and troubles, reaching each other, and death. As such, creating the meaning of the story is possible. Accordingly, in Dârâbnâmeh this has been achieved through reconceptualising a religious love, illustrating love affairs, and centralised and supremacist national-royal discourse.
