Abstract
Comparative literature is a type of interdisciplinary studies that deals with the relationships between the literatures of different nations of the world, and studies the relationship between literature and other human sciences, including the social sciences. The usefulness of these studies is generally due to the fact that they end in obtaining important information, a better understanding of the literary works of different nations and the establishment of a bridge between them, as well as leading to more knowledge through contact with other world literatures. This research paper, by adopting the descriptive and analytical approach and within the framework of the Slavic or Russian School of Comparative Literature, especially the views of Victor Maksimovich Zhirmunsky, aims to study the situation of the Iranian and Lebanese societies during and after World War I in my collections ""Yaki Boud Yaki Naboud”) by Muhammad Ali Jamalzadeh” and “Kan Ma Kan” for Mikhail Naima”. The authors coexist in two similar societies to some extent, and the social implications of both groups and their method of dealing with social issues, as well as their similarities in various fields, including the title, justifies the necessity and importance of conducting this research. The results of the research showed that the two communities were very similar in the midst of the First World War and suffered from similar social problems that led to the creation of the two works, and the similarities between them in various social fields arise from the great similarity in the reality of the two communities. The deplorable status of women, the migration crisis, poverty, division, class divides; identity crisis and other bleak social risks such as suicide, betrayal, bribery and nepotism were among the most common social problems of that time period.
