Abstract
One of the basic approaches to the existing critiques of Sohrab Sepehri enumerates the linguistic, semantic, and artistic values and features originally derived from the Islamic mysticism. Two trends are quite discernible in these comments: proving the mystic nature of his thoughts and poems and, in contrast, rejection, refutation and even teasing the idea altogether. This paper, initially, states the problem and explains the affinity between Sepehri's poetry and Islamic mysticism. Then, a critical evaluative account of the views for and against Sepehri's alleged orientation towards Islamic mysticism is presented.

Abstract
One of the key themes in Ahmad Shamloo's poetry is the expression of various aspects of human sufferings and grief .According to a study done on Shamloo poetry collection , we can dare to say that he is the greatest second or third poet in last 2 or 3 decades who was involved with the concept of reality during his artistic and social life .By sufferings and grief, we mean an overall collection of interpretations , comments, and themes which deal with these two words, namely, suffering and grief .For instance if we consider nature of sufferings and grief from one perspective , its reasons from second perspective , ways in which we can get rid of sufferings from third perspective , result and conclusion from the fourth perspective and finally moral dignity from an additional perspective, we will face an extensive volume of interpretations and abundant vocabularies in his poetry whose discovery and review indicate his mental obsession with these concepts .what counts as an important point in examination of sufferings and grief concept in Shamloo's works is investigation of sufferings and grief nature and how they are contemplated in Shamloo mental system .Surveying the reasons and factors contributing to sufferings and grief is the second problem which is an intricate concept in Shamloo's poetry, considering the different reasons given by classic and contemporary man. Another concern of this research is positive and negative effect of sufferings and grief as well as human attitude toward human beings sufferings and grief.
