Persian literature is considerably enriched with moral anecdotes; meanwhile, some of the prose writers have devised creative, artistic and rhetorical methods, which distinguish their structure not only from poetry (poem) but also from other similar works. Kellile and Demneh written by N. Monshi is considered as an example of such artistic works. In this book in addition to exploitation of all the attractions of technical Persian prose, an innovative form of narration has been employed, which makes it unique in its type. This book, in addition to enjoying all the attractions created by the Persian technical prose, is characterized by its innovative narrative style. That is, in some of the anecdotes of this book, through using the imagery technique, the story’s harmony is designed in such a way that it is in line with the manners and personality of the hero or other characters in the story. The present study aims to review and analyze the story “ kabkangir , rabbit and fasting cat” (chapter 8 owl and raving) and elucidate this specific method of narration in Kellile Demneh.
