Authors

Abstract

The Holy Qur'an is among the fruitful and widely-used resources utilized by the poets and authors of Persian language. Persian of pleasant tature poets of brilliant talent and artistic genius have made so ample use of Qur'an that Persian mystic poetry can be regarded as the poetry of monotheism. The poet Shahriar also has not neglected this great resource and has embellished his poems with the Holy Qur'an’s verses to the extent that this may be considered one of the most outstanding characteristics of his poetry. Many instances of Qur'an’s influence might be found in Shahriar’s poems such as those in the choice of vocabulary, and those concerned with predicates, interpretation, visual, comparative, inspirational-basic, allusion, pictorial and multifaceted areas.
