Abstract:
Modern life is very attractive when you think about the new world and new technologies but when you go through that, you can see the negative sides more than the positive sides. Years ago when the modern ideas appeared it was very interesting for some people but not for all of them. Modern ideas were changing the world fast without any attention to the people and how do they adapt themselves with that. Pioneers like Woolf and Hedayat were writers who tried to create a new point of view toward life; they sacrificed themselves to ascertain the truth of the humanity, art and existence. In this thesis I am going to do research about the common ideas between Woolf and Hedayat also how they changed their environment, how they affected by modern ideas, how they struggled to create new methods of writing and how they finalized their lives. I will give some information about the historical and social issues related with these writers’ lives and then I will analyze their works to reach to the idea that modernism was a road to death for Woolf and Hedayat
