The present research determines if the identity of the characters in James Joyce’s A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man and Mohammad Hasan Shahsavari’s The Possible Night are formed based on external or internal factors. Consequently, based on the findings, it shows how the characters’ memories influence the way the setting is perceived in the narrative. Many scholars have examined different aspects of Stephen Dedalus’s identity and discussed how concepts like religion and nationality have affected it. Furthermore, some Iranian scholars have analyzed the postmodern features of The Possible Night; however, the significance of identity and its relationship with privacy, its influence on the memory, and how it shapes the way the setting is perceived by the mind of the character, as recent literary studies assert, requires more attention regarding these novels. Assuming that identity is under constant change by the interaction between memories and the present state, based on the contemporary theories of identity and memory, the present research follows Edward E. Sampson’s model of internal and external formation of identity alongside the scholars’ notions of privacy to determine Stephen and Maziyar’s environmental orientation. It is based on their reaction to private and public situations and its relationship with the way their memories shape the setting in the narrative is consequently clarified. The researcher expects to find Stephen to be at ease in private places, which determines his environmental orientation as internal, and thus, to recall private spaces as more important and pleasant than public places. Since Maziyar becomes a different person in The Possible Night’s chapters, his memory acts differently based on the identities he assumes in each one.

The present research determines if the identity of the characters in James Joyce’s A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man and Mohammad Hasan Shahsavari’s The Possible Night are formed based on external or internal factors. Consequently, based on the findings, it shows how the characters’ memories influence the way the setting is perceived in the narrative. Many scholars have examined different aspects of Stephen Dedalus’s identity and discussed how concepts like religion and nationality have affected it. Furthermore, some Iranian scholars have analyzed the postmodern features of The Possible Night; however, the significance of identity and its relationship with privacy, its influence on the memory, and how it shapes the way the setting is perceived by the mind of the character, as recent literary studies assert, requires more attention regarding these novels. Assuming that identity is under constant change by the interaction between memories and the present state, based on the contemporary theories of identity and memory, the present research follows Edward E. Sampson’s model of internal and external formation of identity alongside the scholars’ notions of privacy to determine Stephen and Maziyar’s environmental orientation. It is based on their reaction to private and public situations and its relationship with the way their memories shape the setting in the narrative is consequently clarified. The researcher expects to find Stephen to be at ease in private places, which determines his environmental orientation as internal, and thus, to recall private spaces as more important and pleasant than public places. Since Maziyar becomes a different person in The Possible Night’s chapters, his memory acts differently based on the identities he assumes in each one.
