The Idea of Poetry-Child Adoption in Islamic-Iranian literary traditionA study on Kurdish Literature
The idea of celebrating poetry has been considered among poets for ages. Among Kurdish poets, poetry has been of such a high position. Some have admired their poems from the bottom of their hearts and adopted them as their children. This research sought to reinterpret and account for the suggestion of the above idea in Kurdish poets’ poetry with a descriptive-analytical method. For that purpose, poetry by well-known nineteenth-century poets was selected as the target research population. In the background of the discussion, the topic of investigation was first examined and analyzed in the Islamic-Iranian literary tradition, so that its position in Kurdish Literature could be explained and detailed more properly. It was found that poetry, as a whole, has sometimes been evaluated and embodied by Kurdish poets as a child or a son; in other cases, each verse has been regarded as two children. This thought has often been accompanied by aspects of expression including simile, allegory and metaphor. Furthermore, poetry has been assumed in Kurdish Literature as a source of immortality and freeness from the defect of childlessness, which can be ensured by a son. Along the same lines, poetry has been considered in Kurdish poets’ thought as pure and free from improper notions, where a type of ultimate, absolute poetry has been suggested.
