Abstract

 
In Contemporary modernism and postmodernism Period, classic fiction cannot remain in its original form without altering its structure and content. Hence, since the late seventies of the twentieth century, fiction in the West has undergone changes in the narrative components and the volume of the stories. The hardships of work, the precipitation and lack of time, led contemporary writers to minimize and even write thirty-second stories. This group of writers diminished the volume of stories by understanding the necessities of time and tended to simplify the expression and use of less complexity and fictional artifacts. This style of story writing, which sought the easiest way in writing, was called "minimalism".‌  Among American writers, Ernest Hemingway is the first writer to write a minimal on war.‌  In Iran, too, the writers have written minimal on the subject of imposed war.‌  In this study, while expressing components of the minimal stories, the analysis of these components in the chosen minimal by Ernest Hemingway, The Old Man on the Bridge and the Comparative Analysis of two examples of minimal on Holy Defense have been addressed. In examining these works, it can be concluded that Ernest Hemingway's The Old Man on the Bridge is a model and a perfect example of the minimal that has many of its components, while in the Holy Defense literature, due to the repetition of the themes, emotions, and slogans, and structural disadvantages, have lessened the fundamentals of this literary genre.‌
