Abstract
Immigration Persian literature is an important part of Iran's contemporary literature that uses the Narrative genre to express issues and concerns of the immigrants in the host country. This research by using a hybrid approach of Narratology and postcolonial studies attempts to analyze the genre of Immigration Persian novel and endeavors to answer the question whether Immigration Persian literature is a kind of postcolonial Narratology. The research concludes that Immigration Persian literature is postcolonial narrative in kind and is written for defending the minority and the marginalized immigrants in the host country and giving them power and ability to speak. It is written by the postcolonial immigrant author using strong words and form of narrative in the so-called third space. The major concern of the immigrant writer in embracing such a genre is bringing the marginalized immigrant to center and presenting their desires, interests, and especially their narrative.

Abstract
In the period of new criticism and with the formation of new methods of narratology, several patterns emerged in the field of narrative recognition and criticism. In the meantime, Greimas’s model, inspired by Propp’s narratology, and relying on the philosophical principle of contrast, tried to analyze narratives based on the six actants of subject/object (goal), helper/opponent, sender/receiver in a new text analysis system. On the other hand, Suhrawardi, in a pre-textual style, and relying on his philosophical data, used the language of narration and allegory to explain his thoughts in such a way that some of his narrations can be analyzed from the perspective of Greimas. Based on a descriptive-analytical method, this research has analyzed the structure of contrasts in Fi Halat al-Tufulliyah treatise. The results indicated that the structure of this narrative is in a layered and nested form, arisen from the thought characteristic and dominant patterns in Suhrawardi’s mind and the presence of actants in this narrative can perfectly be seen and in some micro-narratives it is in the fluidity of roles. On the other hand, despite the presence of all three action elements in the macro-narrative and micro-narratives, the dominant action element can be considered as a covenant that plays a role in the attractiveness of the narrative compared to that of other Suhrawardi’s treatises. Finally, the object/goal alignment in the macro-narrative and the other four micro-narratives would lead to the prominence of this goal i.e., “reaching peace” in his thought system.
