Abstract

Maqamat al-Hariri is one of the narrative books that comprise fifty maqam, and Abolqasem Hariri has written it in Arabic between 495 and 504 AH. The stories of this book have repetitive narrative patterns. A single plot or pattern is the basis of all these stories, and the rest of the patterns are based on it. Todorov is a structuralist narrator who tries to write a command for all narratives. He has encoded  the subjects and verbs, and adjectives into a simple system of symbols that can reproduce the plot of each story using it. According to the unitary pattern that exists in the Maqamat al-Hariri , attributes and verbs and characters or adjectives can substitute each other and maintain a single base structure with a different surface structure in different stories. You can do structural analysis by highlighting a particular action or feature in the tales. This paper shows how the infrastructure of the anecdotes in Maqamat al-Hariri can be adapted, evaluated using the narrative command and using the framework of Tzutan Tudorov's propositions
