Abstract
Mirza Mohammad Ali Isfahani, mostly known as "Sorush" and "Shams-al-Shoara" was one of the greatest poets of the literary return movement and the Naseri era. One of the factors of the fame and excellence of this poet's position among the literati was his ability to skillfully imitate former poets. Previous research indicates that Sorush was most inclined towards the poetry of Farrokhi Sistani. Based on a quantitative-statistical method and a stylistic approach, the current study tries to present reliable statistics on the amount of the poet's use of art and rhetorical techniques by examining the structure of the poetic images of the Divan of Sorush Isfahani. In addition to determining the level and quality of the structure of Sorush's images in terms of their simplicity or complexity, an attempt was made to compare the structure of his poetic images with that of the images of poets of preceding styles, especially by investigating the claim of the similarity of his poetry to that of Farrokhi. Based on our data, the images of Sorush's ghazals have the most complex structure, and the images of his masnavis have the simplest structure. The structure of images in Sorush's odes is surprisingly similar to the image structure of Farrokhi's, as if despite the historical distance, both structures belonged to the same poet, and this means an exact repetition of a historical experience in the creation of poetic images. The same thing happened in another aspect: The structure of images in Sorush's ghazals is exactly on a par with the structure of images in Saadi's ghazals.

Abstract
Each branch of hermeneutics is like a slice of reality. Integral hermeneutics confronts us with a larger part of reality. Since the image contains more information than the text, in integral hermeneutics, using the capabilities of the image, the elements related to the analysis of the author, the text, and the audience can be integrated together in an interactive space and displayed as an image. In this article, the poem Heartless (Biedel in Persian) by Mehdi Akhavan Sales was analyzed based on the integral hermeneutic approach, which first examines the elements of the text and the author's situation and then using psychological analysis, looks for external examples of text elements in the life and circumstances of the author. The results of this study showed that the depth images were used based on the proof images through the possibility of visualization (visualization of freedom in the pigeon). The depth image means the use of secondary aspects of words and the proof image means the author's attempt to express one’s opinion and to attract the audience. According to imagery structure, the ‘dove’, ‘blood’, ‘tower’, and ‘lost’ are in the focus as the central images and the poetic images are created by employing the secondary meaning of words using description and symbolization. These images have a lyrical tone due to the ‘akhrab makfouf’ present hexameter. Moreover, this poem has a socio-political function and like a critical statement, it portrays a regressing society as a result of the coup. The poem uses cinematic imagery because it has a narrative and rich imagery to take advantage of the secondary meaning of words. In fact, using symbolism and the secondary meaning of words, the poet tries to win the support of the audience regarding his intention, which is taking a stance on a historical, political, and social event.

Abstract
The issue of the “subject” is the most important factor in the distinction between classical and modern literature. The word “I” is often general and abstract in classical literature, while in contemporary literature, following modern philosophy, it is an individualized and concrete “I” or, in other words, an active subject. Perhaps the most obvious manifestation of this paradigm shift - especially in poetry - can be seen in the type of encounter with the “subject”. Contemporary poetry, from its most superficial romantic facet to its most complex philosophical aspect, expresses a self-sufficient subject whose origin is human centrality. Ahmad Shamlou is one of the poets whose poetry subject is “I”. This research deals with the hermeneutics of “self/subject” in his poetry using qualitative content analysis and critical reading of the collection of Shamlou's poems along with selecting indicative examples. Since this “I/self/subject” has been subjected to turmoil and transformations during his six decades of writing poetry, the theoretical framework of the discussion is also based on these developments and deals with both the philosophical subject which emphasizes individual thought and consciousness and to a subject that is a social construct. Hence, the theoretical framework of the study is based on a triangulation of Michel Foucault’s discussions about the hermeneutics of the self and governing oneself and others; the theory of symbolic interactionism, which deals with the individual and social “self”; existentialism that focuses on freedom, choice, and responsibility; and ultimately Althusser’s perspective on the subject i.e., subject with s (small letter) and subject with S (capital letter). "I" in Shamlou's political poetry is an ideological pseudo-subject (subject) due to his attachment to the Toudeh party, whereas in his philosophical poetry, it is the result of knowledge and awareness based on his own lived experience, and reflection on existence, human, life, and death, as the supreme subject (Subject).

Abstract
Poetry and painting are two different ways to create works of art, and their close correlation has always been the consideration of art history researchers and literary critics. Sohrab Sepehri is an artist who has tested his taste in both the fields of poetry and painting. Therefore, the present research, targeting a select collection of paintings of trees and Hasht Ketab (Eight Books) of Sepahri, in the light of the theory of Panofsky's Iconology, deals with a comparative and interdisciplinary study of these works. It also focuses on the image of trees in both poetic and painting media to analyze and explain the various structural and semantic aspects of common icons in order to discover the characteristics and connections between his poetic world and the art of painting. The main question is why and how the image of a tree acts differently in two linguistic and visual systems. Sepehri's approach to the element of tree in both poetry and painting contrasts with such concepts as dynamism and static, life and death, rootedness and rootlessness, fertility and infertile, openness, closure, and junction and disjunction whereas it sometimes gets very close to each other in such themes as strangeness and the sense of suspense. Sepehri is under the influence of the paradigm of modern Iranian painting in drawing the image of the tree and its space, in which the space is basically contracted, dark, and desperate. That's why the trees in his works act mostly in the direction of rupture. They move in the direction of disjunction from the world and the essence of existence which can be an allegory of Sepaheri's objective world. However, the image of the tree in his poems is in line with the dominant concepts - a symbol of growth, freshness, and vitality - at the usual level far from the rhetorical signs and the uncommon domain of connotation in Persian literature. It is in fact an explanation of the ideal world of the poet.
