چکیده:
Myth manifests in a literary work either through images of imagination or through archetypal images. First, definitions of myth, the archetypal image, and the relationship between the two are presented. Then, in light of examining examples of ancient and modern poems, the role and position of myth in the overall structure of poetry and in the horizontal and vertical axes of imagination are explained. In the main section of the article, the manifestation of myth through archetypal images is examined, and it is also addressed that myth is the guide to understanding archetypes. Self-awareness, the unconscious, the collective unconscious, and the archetype from Jung's perspective are also examined, and some of these archetypes are explained in Shamlou's poems. The result is that archetypes create a kind of myth in the form of a body, and myths, on one hand, give birth to the poet's infant thoughts in the role of a mother, and on the other hand, are considered an inseparable part of the organic totality of the poem's structure.

The Function of Archetypes in Classical and Contemporary Persian Poetry in Light of a Structural Approach: Shamloo's Poems1 Abolfazl Horri, Instructor of Persian Language and Literature, Arak University Abstract Myth manifests in a literary work either through imagery or through archetypal images.
Background of the Discussion In addition to the books mentioned above, it is no exaggeration to say that more than sixty articles in Persian scientific-research journals2 and hundreds of articles in Western academic journals3 have been written regarding the concept of myth, its types, and its various functions in different fields of the humanities, particularly mythological/archetypal criticism, which requires a much broader opportunity and scope to address them all.
In the present essay, the position and role of archetypes as archetypal and universal images latent in the collective unconscious, which manifest as myth and emerge through the language of symbol and metaphor in literary and artistic works, are closely examined and analyzed in light of the structural analysis of the poems "Marg-e Naseri" and "Barkhastan" by Shamlu, alongside references to examples from ancient poets.
Jung has interpreted this type of shared and hereditary unconscious as the "collective unconscious" and calls the universal images latent within it, which manifest in the form of myth and emerge through the language of code and symbol in artistic works, "archetypes.
Below, we first refer to the application of archetypes in classical Persian poetry and then, while mentioning the factors of mythological transformation in modern poets, we follow the application of myths in the form of individual and eternal archetypes in several poems by Shamlu.
