Mixed Metonymy in Bidel's Ghazals

Mixed metonymy, as a figures of speech, is the result of combining metonymy with implicit metaphor or Iham. Although there are instances of this kind of metaphor in Khorasani style, and it has attracted so much attention in Iraqi and Azarbaijani styles, it has been most frequent in Hindi style; in a way that it is the most style-related figure of speech in this literary school, and hence, from a general point of view, you can not talk about Hindi literary style without considering this figure of speech and other figures close to it. The frequency of this figure of speech in Bidel’s Ghazals (1054-1132) is so much that it can be found in all his Ghazals even more than once. In this research, this figure of speech is studied in 300 Ghazals which were chosen randomly among 2900 Ghazals of Abdul-Qader Bidel Dehlavi. Using this figure of speech, Bidel related different range of words (From nature to man-made objects; from the most delicate feelings to the finest abstract concepts) to metonymies which are combined with Iham and are mostly related to human, and in this way he created novel images.
