This study examines the reflection of social changes of literature in society. The Sociology of literature, especially in the field of dramatic literature, is a less-known field for researchers. Part of this alienation is due to the need to get familiar with the two fields of sociology and dramatic literature, which is limiting in its way, and the other part is related to the relative lack of work in this field. Of course, some research has been done, and critics such as Georg Lukacs (1885-1971) and Lucien Goldman have done valuable work in this regard. Researchers in the field of literature and art often refer to the writer's social and family conditions to understand artistic-literary works by examining the cultural, economic, and political conditions of the author in different periods of his life; they try to understand the origin of the artistic-literary works of the author and discover the hidden issues. In other words, these researchers start from the author's environmental conditions and reach the emerging works, but the author broke the tradition in this research and, in a move opposite to what has been customary, started from the emerging works and then reached the social conditions. In the term, society is the product of a gathering of people and mutual activities among those who live together and cooperate in reaching a certain goal. In addition, simple regulations govern their normal relations, and institutions and organizations ensure the continuity and stability of their society.
