Correcting Ghia's Poetry Collection and Introducing His Poetry Style

Ghiasuddin Ali Yazdi known as "Ghias" was a well-known poet and painter from the tenth and eleventh century AH who was known for the design of silk fabrics to "Naqshband". He, in addition to skill in the art of Naqshbandi, was also capable of poetry and had a collection of beautiful poems. His poetry collection includes various poems odes and sonnets, quatrains and Masnavi. All of these has been corrected and published only once by Hussein Masarrat in 2014. This study, by examining this publication, will show its weaknesses and inadequacies in several sections: 1) the method of correction is uncertain and inauthentic; it is deductive; 2) many of the verses are recorded with distortions that, by affecting the meaning of the original text, have changed a lot of it. In addition to these points, the mistakes related to suspensions, typos, mischiefs, and recordings should also be mentioned. Masarrat’s correction of Ghias’ collection has many drawbacks; for this reason, this article tries to refer to some of them and the need to re-examine his collection. The elements of the style of Ghias poetry are also analyzed in this essay in terms of familiarity and normality. The most important norms in the poetry of Ghias are syntactic, spatial, and archaism. In this study, we try to recall this part of the norms, part of the aesthetic functions in Ghias’ poetry.
