Meaning deviation in Nizâmi's poems (Xosrow and Širin, Leyli and Majnun)

Meaning deviation is one of the most important factors of foregrounding in which poets use collocation (combining the words) and substitution (diction) to change the ordinary form of poetry. Since the meaning domain is the most important factor in foregrounding, every poet who uses more artistic and methodical talent in collocating and substituting suitable words would have superior poems. As Nizâmi Ganjavi is one of the great poets in this field, this article discusses some of this kind of deviation in his two eminent works (Xosrow and Širin, Leili and Majnun).
