The form and context of Afghanistan emigration

Marxist coup-detat (1357/1998) in Afghanistan is the origin of the literary changes in this country within the last decades. The coup-detat, which accompanied by severe public resistance, the entering of the (late Soviet Union) Red-army and the emergence of war in the Afghanistan paved the way for the emigration of the Afghan people, writers and poets to the other foreign countries especially to the neighboring countries. Due to the very close cultural linguistic and religious proximity between the two nations, Iran hosted a large groups of Afghan emigrant poets who gradually founded and developed the Afghanistan emigration poetry in Iran. Considering the content of these poems, Afghanistan emigration poetry has greatly been affected by the Iranian poets, revolutionary poetry of the Holy Defense, and the (Imposed – war) resistance poetry. mAfghanistan emigration also consists of interesting features in terms of both from and aesthetic aspects. The present paper attempts to investigate and analyse these features as well as its form and content changes within the last decades in Iran.
