Abstract

Houshang Ebtehaj (Sayeh), a contemporary lyric poet who also has successful works in composing poetry in the "Nimai" style, has been noticed more than any other contemporary lyrical poet by famous poets and masters and his works have been admired and encouraged. Attractive and charming themes, similes and metaphors and novel images, fluent and rhythmic language, well-composed and all in tune with the sonnet, are the characteristics of his poetry. He has also experimented with Hafez's poetry style, and has written poems with new and innovative themes and content; as in many of his poems can be seen the influence of Hafez in his thematic compositions. The present research is composed by descriptive and analytical methods by relying on the data of library resources. The findings of the study, based on the illustrated version of Hafez at the International Center for Microfilm Noor, indicate Hafez's profound influence on the themes that Houshang Ebtehaj has chosen for his poetry. The use of pictorial metaphors is one of the characteristics of Hafez's lyric poems, which can also be seen in Houshang Ebtehaj's poems.

1. Analysis of the themes of Hafez's lyric poems and poems by Houshang Ebtehaj.
2. Investigating the effect of Hafez's thematicization on pictorial metaphors in Houshang Ebtehaj's poetry.

Research questions:
