Themes of social love in poems of Ahmad Shamloo and NizarQabbani

Lyric poetry in contemporary literature has changed. “Woman” has changed from aesthetic subject to an active persona and in the literature field; we can see the effects of this activity and creativity. With contrastive literature as a branch of comparative literature، we study the common subjects in global literature which there are not composed or written by effect from each other، but they are the result of same situations and approaches. In this article، ten common concepts for description “woman” in Nizar Qabbani، Arab contemporary poet، and poems of Ahmad Shamlou، Iranian contemporary poet، are studied. In some poetic periods of these poets، both، lyric and social and poetical issues mixed together and “love” is seen in a specific balance. There are two basic approaches in the poetry of both poets، in first approach bands the poet heat and verve of challenge and social concern. In second approach، “love” gives poet hope for challeng. Beloved in the shape of a prophet and a perfect “woman” is the source of beauty and goodness in the poet’s world and celebrates the days of victory with poet.
