Abstract :

Epic works are the identity and character of each country and could be bravely claimed that a country without epic works is faceless. Two great epic masterpieces of the world are Ferdowsi's Shahnameh who has been written about repeatedly and will and Paradise Lost by John Milton which is not comparable to Shahnameh but is of universal position. Paradise Lost and Shahnameh have commonalities in feature and characteristics that it seems rare comparative studies has been done so far; one of the commonalities is in the relative similarity of good and bad characters, although there are many differences in composition, theme, context and characters, the emphasis is the separation of good natured and bad natured and their effects on the people of the world.
