A Lacanian Reading of the Poem"Let Us Believe in theBeginning of the Cold Season"by ForughFarrokhzad

Interpretation  of  lexicons  in  ForoughFarrokhzad's  poetry  reflects poet's personal experiences and worldview. Psychoanalysis criticism is maybe the best way to study dominant sensual traits and emotions of the poet and his contemporaries. Also, it can help the critic to study individual and collective unconsciousness of contemporary generation of poet's time. Jacques Marie ÉmileLacan, French psychoanalyst and psychiatrist whose interdisciplinary work influenced by Hegel's dialectic and Ferdinand de Saussure linguistics, was as a self-proclaimed Freudian. His ideas went beyond the boundaries of psychoanalysis in a way that turn it to an interdisciplinary discipline mixed with other sciences. Lacan's first official contribution to psychoanalysis was the mirror stage which was later followed and at the same time developed based on three orders including the imaginary, the symbolic and the real. This paper aims at studying ForughFarrokhzad's famous poem "Let Us Believe in the Beginning of the Cold   Season   "   through   the   lens   of   Lacan's   ideas   regarding   the unconscious, which is structured like a Language, as well as psychological development of the subject. The paper tries to study the subjectivity based on the language, thought and lexicons disclosing unconscious mind of the subject of the poem. Employing Lacan's ideas including three orders, Other/other, trauma of the real and Lack, the paper reads lexicons, images, language and the unconscious mind of the subject and poet in her famous poem from a work with the same name: "Let Us Believe in the Beginning of the Cold Season."
