A Comparative Study of Figures of Speech in Poems by Hossein Monzavi and Gheisar Aminpour
Seyyed Jamaleddin Mortazavi , Sajad Najafi Behzadi
Abstract:   (9785 Views)

The pertinence of a poet’s imagination in ordinary concepts of life and their relationship with nature is due to his or her insights and knowledge of natural phenomena as well as the outside world. In the collection of works of every poet, all various types of imagery being attributable to figures of speech (i.e., metaphor, simile, synecdoche, and irony) represent moments that deal with the poet’s inner world; in fact, they are the reflections of the poet’s soul, personality, and inner characteristics. The current study was an attempt to scrutinize figures of speech and their frequency of use in Aminpour’s and Monzavi’s poems to find out the poets’ thoughts, emotions, and ideology towards the world and life. The common shared imageries or the central poetical imageries of these two poets were around love and the issues surrounding it. Although, more or less, a reflection of the society and the social issues could be seen in their writings, their subject was mostly about love. Their poetical imageries were vivid, dynamic, and visual. Although even little imitations could be discernible in their poems, their imageries and figures of speech domains were not just limited to the imageries of traditional poetry, but innovations could be observed in their poems. Similes were mostly intense and intuitive-intangible, and metaphor and simile were used more frequently than the other figures of speech.

Keywords: Figures of speech, Gheisar Aminpour, Hossein Monzavi, Imagery, Metaphor, Simile
