by Mohammad Miraliakbari

Artigoshe is written based on the eternal work of Sophocles; however, with distinctive differences in form and structure. Its structure is rather close to picaresque, but completely free of its special literary rules. But why "Artigoshe"? The letters "r", "t", "g" and "sh" were of most important letters, used a lot in ancient Persian.
