A Structural Critique of the Book 'Grammar of Love', Written by Qeysar Aminpour معرفی و نقد

چکیده:

Grammar of Love, the last collection of poems by Qeysar Aminpour, is a famous poet of pride (1333-1386). In this article, the author examines some of the highlights of the work from the perspective of structural criticism. Initially, the language of poetry, tone, vocabulary, poetic forms, and the music of poetry are analyzed minutely, and then attention is paid to imagery and its constructive elements. The discussion regarding content, themes, and the emotional role of love in this work constitutes the final parts of the article. The present study shows that Qeysar Aminpour is a stylistic poet by borrowing from the simple, unpretentious, and popular language of contemporary Persian. The widespread use of idiomatic combinations and proverbs has given character to his poetic language. The tone of the poems in this collection is interrogative, and the position of music within it is very high and profound. He has composed poems in Nimaic forms, Ghazal, and Rubai. His strongest poetic images are formed by perceptions and metaphors; of course, he has also made good use of ambiguity, paradox, simile, and synesthesia. The constructive elements of his imagery include words that are somehow connected to the realm of teaching. Elements of nature, stories of prophets, and religious events are other semantic domains of his poetry; allusions and references to Quranic verses and Hadiths are also seen among his poems. The definition of art, beauty, and the concept of life constitute the most important philosophical concerns of the poet. At the same time, discussions of self-knowledge, such as knowing the 'I', the 'self', and the 'ego', along with words like mask, shadow, and the hidden half, indicate the poet's studies in the field of psychology.
