DESCRIPTION:Guest lecture by Mateuz Kłagisz (Kraków)\n\nThe "Mādīgān 
 ī Yōšt ī Fryān" is a short Middle Persian Märchen-like story in pros
 e narrating a riddle-duel between the pious youth named Yōšt ī Fryān a
 nd his malicious adversary called Axt. Among Axt’s thirty three religion
 -related riddles one can find a single one regarding an impressive creatur
 e with ten feet\, six eyes and ears\, four horns\, three heads\, noses\, b
 acks and pairs of testicles as well as two tails and hands. To solve the r
 iddle\, Yōšt ī Fryān obtains help from Ahura Mazdā via the messenger 
 Nēryōsang. The explanation is a literary representation of an agricultur
 al iconographic motif to be found on few Sasanian seals\, on a Soghdian mu
 ral painting as well as in the Tajik and Turkish folklore.
