Today much more attention is paid to the relation of "psychology" and "literature" in the field of interdisciplinary studies. Literary works, on one hand, are the result of man's mental states; and they foster man’s spirit, on the other hand; so, it seems being a suitable platform for the study and analysis of psychological concepts. Romance poetry covers a wide section of Persian literature. Saadi is one of the few poets who have upgraded love to its highest heavenly and terrestrial meaning throughout the history of Persian literature. Love is also a major topic in empirical psychology, and some well-known psychologists such as Erich Fromm and Robert Sternberg and Renee Allende have spoken in detail about it and its context and functions. The effective role of love in human evolution and excellence, and submission to the will of the beloved, as well as the need for sacrifice and forgiveness are the main commonalities exist between Saadi’s points of view and empirical psychology on love. These commonalities reflect Saadi's truthfulness and honesty in loving and expressing it, from one hand, and emphasize the sustainability of many healthy and natural love criteria, on the other hand.
