Abstract

New historicism is one of the interdisciplinary approaches which use history as a Text to show the hidden layers of events. The memoires of Ezzat Shahi is a Narrative of resistance and combat of an individual who was trusted by many groups fighting against Pahlavi's regime. In this historical Narrative, interaction and confrontation of the regime and reproduction of rival Quasi-discourses are presented in three periods: Pre-prison, inter-prison, and after the victory of Islamic Revolution. In this study, the above-mentioned Work is investigated in two classifications of macro and micro and in six sub-levels. Findings show that this Work with an atomistic view to the field of Oral history of Islamic Revolution, make a discursive classification, as well as describing the Hegemony and the Dispersion of sovereignty, the intergroup dissolution of opposing forces, and finally the fragmentation of Iranian society in 40s and 50s. The narrator to configure ideological relationships of power describes the political behaviors of litigant micro-discourses. This book with the use of intersexual and appended historical documents (explanations of the editor).presents signs and quality of power formation In other section of this research shows contrast, contradiction, vagueness telling, and ideological constraints of litigant powers in the context by examples
