description The present article, with the aim of measuring the effectiveness of the ideological square in the analysis of dramatic texts, examines racial nationalism in the discourse of the historical drama "Parvin, Sasan’s daughter". This research has a descriptive-analytical approach and shows how the ideology of nationalism is reflected in Hedayat's discourse using Van Dijk's discourse strategies. In this regard, the main question of this article is: how is the author's ideology manifested in the text of the drama, and what discourse strategies have been used to explain it? To achieve this goal, the authors carefully studied the text of the work and then identified and analyzed the discourse components in it, focusing on internal and external actors. Findings show that Hedayat's enmity with the Arabs is generalized to a stronger opposition to Islam and the Semitic race. In his discourse with racial motives, the author seeks to remove these elements from the field of Iranian culture and identity. Using ideological strategies, Hedayat has reduced the error of insiders in his work and highlighted the defects of outsiders, namely the Arabs. Although the author's ideology of modernity is not directly expressed in his language, it can be achieved by analyzing the discourse of the work.
