The Literary Return and linguistic coordinates of the poetry of that period

Document Type : مروری

Abstract

In this research, our goal is to introduce the Literary Return style and how it is formed, and then examine the linguistic coordinates of the poetry of this period in a brief way. Undoubtedly, the change and evolution of the poetry style is influenced by political and social developments first of all. Of course, issues such as literary tradition, type of audience, and poet's personal issues can influence the formation of literary style. The Return style was established during two historical periods, namely Afsharid and Zand (around 1148 to 1200 AH). Due to political and social reasons and cultural and literary issues as a result, this school established principles and foundations for itself during the Qajar period in a purposeful and coherent manner. The language of the poetry of the mentioned period is generally an imitation of the poetry of the Iraqi and Khorasani periods. But by studying the works of the poets of this period, we find out that the Return style poets do not have complete mastery of the rules of morphology and syntax and other things of the poetry language of the past periods (Iraqi-Khorasani) as they should, that is why their poetry language is crude and elementary. On the other hand, some linguistic issues of this period are influenced by the Indian style or the Afsharid and Zand period, which are examined in this essay by citing examples.
