An Analysis of the Odes of Hafez on the Basis of Jung's Theory of Persona/Shadow

Anthropological research is as old as history. Since thinkers tried to present their thoughts, they have noticed the diverse aspects of human existence and offered various views on anthropology. One important anthropological issue is psychology and the whys of human behavior. Psychologically speaking, not only human behavior but also art and literature can be psychologically analyzed. Today we can see a deep link between literature and psychology. A scientific psychological analysis of literary works can reveal many of our past socio-cultural subjects having been lost in history. The purpose of the present article is to apply Jung’s psychology to the analysis of literary and artistic works, especially his theory of persona/shadow in the mystic odes of Hafez.
