The father-son battle is a prominent motif in the epic literature of various cultures worldwide, and many researchers have studied this motif from different perspectives, including comparative approaches. One notable example of this motif in epic texts is the Russian narrative of the battle between two heroic figures, a father and son. Despite its significant similarities to the Iranian version (the battle between Rostam and Sohrab in Shahnameh), it has not yet been translated into Persian, and Iranian researchers have only had access to a general outline of the plot and main events. This article provides a translation of the most famous Russian version of the father-son battle narrative, highlighting its structural and stylistic features, and discusses points regarding the similarities and differences between the Russian and Persian versions. The aim is to demonstrate that these two epic texts are connected, either directly or indirectly, and that their similarities cannot be explained by coincidence or parallel historical and social conditions.
