| description | This article focuses on a Persian legend derived from Abol Qasem Ferdowsi’s Shahnameh (The Book of Kings) with a rather peculiar antagonist: a dragoness whose most significant expression is laughter. By revising what Islam and Zoroastrian ism (both present as structuring constructs in this legend) teach about laughter, we will try to under stand why such a humane expression is attributed to a monster. Since the monster in question is a female creature, we will also explore a gendered perspective to establish a link between dragons and laughter. Finally, by means of symbolic and cultural hermeneutics, we will reflect on the only way the dragoness can be destroyed: a mirror. |

Notas sobre una leyenda persa Mohammadi Shirmahaleh, Shekoufeh Shahnamé Ferdousí dragoness laugh ter mirror Shahnamé Ferdousí dragona risa espejo This article focuses on a Persian legend derived from Abol Qasem Ferdowsi’s Shahnameh (The Book of Kings) with a rather peculiar antagonist: a dragoness whose most significant expression is laughter. By revising what Islam and Zoroastrian ism (both present as structuring constructs in this legend) teach about laughter, we will try to under stand why such a humane expression is attributed to a monster.

El artículo se centra en una leyenda persa derivada del Shahnamé (El libro de los reyes) de Abol Qasem Ferdousí en la que aparece una antagonista bastante peculiar: una dragona cuya expresión más significativa es la risa. Mediante la revisión de lo que el islam y el zoroastrismo (am bos presentes como constructos estructurantes en esta leyenda) nos enseñan sobre la risa, se intenta comprender por qué se le atribuye una expresión tan humana a un monstruo. Como el monstruo en cuestión es una criatura femenina, también se explora una perspectiva de género para establecer un vínculo entre los dragones y la risa. Por último, se recurre a la hermenéutica simbólica y cultural para reflexionar sobre la única forma de destruir a la dragona: un espejo.
