Introduction

In literature, Reminiscence nostalgia or homesickness is actually the poetic regrets that the poets talk about for a sense of nostalgia or regret over things or those who have already been lost for any possible reasons (Mousavi et al., 1391). This process, which is rooted in psychology, is said to be a form of writing, which the poet or author applies in his own work in order to remember the memories of the past with the grief and pain or describes what he his has lost. Usually the memories of the homesickness or reminiscence encompasses a wide area which includes the memories of relatives, neighbors, childhood land, the past prominent values and everything that makes the poet to regret about losing it.One of the Arab poets, whose poems make a significant contribution to reflecting the feeling of homesickness, is the contemporary poet “Nazar Ghabbani”. In this paper, the authors tried to reveal the process of "homesickness" in his poems after analyzing the poet's poetry. The purpose of this study is to uncover some of the unknown aspects of Nazar Ghabbani 's poetry, including his attention to Arab lands and his childhood. We aim to fade the suspension that all his poems are related to the love and women exclusively, and the role of grim themes and poetry containing homesickness in various forms is also expressed in the excellence of his poem, which seems to be necessary. In this research, the following questions have been answered.-How has the content of  "homesickness" or "Reminiscence" revealed themselves  in the poems of "Nazar Ghabbani"?-What are the factors leading to the formation of  homesickness in Nazar Ghabbani and its manifestation in the poems of this poet?

Research Methodology

This study is based on the descriptive-analytical method and the library resources. The authors initially devoted their work to the definition and the description of the “homesickness” or “Reminiscence” and its factors and its types. Also, in the rest of this paper, we present Nazar Ghabbani’s biography and then, consider the social and political life of him from the "homesickness" perspective.For this goal, the poems of the poet were repeatedly studied and with considering the theoretical foundations of the research, the samples of poems and the various examples of homesickness were extracted from Nazar Ghabbani’s poems. In addition, its main reasons have been analyzed.

Discussion

After reviewing the Nazar Ghabbani’s poems, five aspects of the manifestation of “nostalgia” or “Reminiscence” were identified in his poems, including nostalgia for his homeland”, “nostalgia for his childhood, “Mom’s grief’s Reminiscent”, “the reminiscence of failure in the society” and “ the reminiscent of losing ideal society” which are discussed below. In order to investigate the manifestation of nostalgia for this poem, “Nazar Ghabbani”, we should mention that, in one of his works “Al-Dameshghiat”, he felt intensively dependent on one of the Arab cities, and the intensity of his feeling was expressed as Mother. He considers himself to be descended (the birth) of these cities, and it seems that his metaphor of Arab cities to Mother was the expression of his anguish (distress) for his homeland and reunion.One of the manifestations of homesickness is the return to his childhood and the memories of those times. In one of his poems, Nazar Ghabbani, recounts the natural beauty of his hometown in his childhood. And perhaps it can be said that seeing plenty of these phenomena in those days and living in an environment full of these beauties and blessings has left such a pleasant effect on his memory, which, after many years, is also one of the most important factors in provoking the poet's nostalgia.He also had a hard and intensive homesickness for his wife and in one of his poems; he used the metaphor for describing his love. He resembled his feeling and his children’s feeling to trembling of the leaves of the trees and then he resembled it  to a feather which is exposed to the rain. And at the end, with the phrase "the sweetest home" addressed to his deceased wife, he would like to point out that even the Arab homeland, with all his popularity with the poet, cannot stop the moment of grief resulting from the death of his wife. Among the issues that raised the regret of Nazar Ghabbani is that he did not have the right to express his thoughts, which made him so annoyed. Moreover, he felt saddened because he could not perform his intellectual and guiding role.In many cases, the sadness of the poet is due to the social problems which were made by politicians who did not have enough knowledge. One thing that caused more grief for Nazar Ghabbani about the homesickness and the separation of ideal land was related to a stifling situation and the coercion of tyrant on his land. Because the people were harnessed by the security officials strictly, they did not have the right to do the slightest manipulation in their lives, and Nazar Ghabbani was very sad about this.

Conclusion

One of the dominant features of most of Nazar Ghabbani’s poems is a feeling of nostalgia and regret, either an anguish for the past events, or for events that had to occur at the time of poet for his country and his countrymen, but never occurred. All of this caused the deep feeling of deep sadness in the poet's soul and made him to write poems with the theme of grief and regret. These poems, known as reminiscent of the poet, have a special place in the Nizar’s book. In an special classification, we can distinguish the most important manifestation of reminiscence in five parts: away from homeland, childhood, wife’s death, a social failure and loss of ideal society.  The most important and efficient factors in manifestation of Nazar Ghabbani’s poems is about homesickness; we can express the wife’s death, being away from homeland, reviewing the childhood memories, seeing the problems and existence of the anarchy in the society including the intolerance of tyrant’s oppression against the people and interference in their lives and also the great grief for people’s silence against the injustice.
