The Influence of Bidel's Poetry on the Ghazals of the First Generation of the Islamic Revolution

Despite all stylistic differences, poetry of the first generation of the Islamic Revolution has had a common feature which is being influenced by Bidel’s mind and language. Poets of this generation, due to their personal style and their own thoughts have reflected a part of spectrum of Bidel’s style of poetry in their poems. Among them the lyric poets of Hindi style get more benefit out of it. The main issue of this project is the influence of Bidel’s poetry on the poetry of the first generation of the Islamic Revolution in both artistic and non-artistic areas as well as in the realms of rhetoric, figures of speech and the language. The results suggest that among all of these, Bidel-like symbols and similes in the domains of rhetoric, paradoxical images, compounding-sensations and personification in the field of figures of speech, and reversed compounds and numerical subordinates in linguistic area are more prominent. The lyrics of Yousef-Ali Mirshakkak, Ali Mo’allem Damghani, Seyyed Hassan Hosseini, Abdoljabbar Kakaei, Alireza Ghazveh, Sa’ed Bagheri and Seyyed Mohammad Abbasieh Kohan which are studied in this paper are explicit instances of tendency of the poets of the first generation of the Islamic Revolution to Bidel; although the influential degree of each poet is different.
