In this research, we have addressed a comparative study of the poems of Simin Behbahani and Ghada al-Samman based on Karen Horney's theory of personality types.
The research results show that both idealist poets, in the realm of theme, by relying on Horney's detached personality and needy personality, have sought to avoid the social clichés of the times and the romantic parameters that lead women into exclusivity and subordination; and since they consider the surrounding world incompetent for authenticating female experiences and feelings, their most important defensive way in facing basic anxiety is avoidance and migration to an ideal world.
