Abstract: (33 Views)

The theory of interaction analysis of personality "TA" is one of the proposed theories in the psychological field of personality. Eric Berne, as the most prominent theorist in this field, believes that human personality is based on the three aspects of parent, adult, and child, which appear in his personality when he communicates with other people.This knowledge has a very close relationship with literature, especially fiction that expresses the behavior of the main characters of the story under the influence of political and social conditions in the best way. The novel "Ma Tabaqi Lakm" by Ghassan Kanfani expresses the complicated situation of a war-torn Palestinian family that has suffered a breakup and crisis.Hoshang Moradi Kermani depicts the sufferings and emotional blows of his life from childhood to adulthood with the novel "You are not a stranger".The purpose of this research is to explain the hidden angles of the textual context of both novels and to reveal the dominant and authoritarian relationships of the main characters of both novels towards each other. In this literary research, we analyze and analyze the characters of the two mentioned novels with the analytical descriptive method and based on Eric Burn's theory, and compare their identical components.
