Criticism of Epic Language in Ibn Hessam Khusfis Khavaranname

In this type of criticism، the main elements that a critic takes into consideration are rhythm and rhyme، vocabulary، syntax and word order، and forms of imagination. In the standard epic language، i. e. Shahname، all these elements help the typical literary epic and recall thought epical contents، but in some epic works after Ferdowsi، it is seen that the main epical elements have been separated from context and have made the epic language oscillate and even have made it similar to lyric language. In order to find out this issue، we decided to review the main elements of epic language in a secondary epic، i. e. Ibn Hessam Khusfis Khavaranname. In this review، it has been specified that the poet has been nearly successful in using most elements of epic language including side rhymes، epic vocabulary، syntax and a fluent epic language، although unreal imaginary content has influenced the poet''s work، and as a result non-epic vocabulary and combinations have been imposed on him، and this fact has kept his language away from the sound standard epic language.
