Abstract
This article aims at identifying the reflections of two ideologies present in the story " Deep Roots " by Ebrahim Hassanbeigi, based on Althusser’s, Gransci’s, and Marx’s viewpoints. This work is reviewed based on these scholars’ ideas. Generally the presence of two ideologies can be seen in this story, i.e., national ideology and local ideology. Each of them has their own characteristics. But, At the end, It is the religious ideology which finds control and hegemony through making the intended person or the target accept its ideas, inviting him/her to competition with the former ideology, and diminishing its legitimacy. The opposition of these two ideologies is evident on both events and characters. In other words, ideology is not something to be omitted, and human without ideology is senseless. This ideology displays its hegemony through sentimentalization, which can separate the familiar group from the strange group. Shapook is someone who has replaced one ideology with another. In class struggle between the two ideologies, the former ideology paves the way for the penetration and recreation of national ideology by decreasing and discarding the strange groups and as a result of cultural poverty
