Conceptual Typology and Stylistics Analysis in Khaghani's Fragment

Regarding the evolution of Persian poetry in sixth century AH from simplicity toward lingual and literary difficulty, on the one hand, and the unique richness of Khaghani's philosophy and thought as one of the stylistic poets of this period, on the other hand, this key question arises as to whether or not Khaghani's poetry in less known forms such as fragment is similar in structure and content to his personal style in other poetic forms? Scientific observations reveal that the fragment form in this period was initially emerged by Anwari and after that peaked with independent type by Khaghani, and then gradually reflected in an artistic form in the poetry of this period; so that although the language used in fragment was somewhat vernacular and informal, but in Khaghani's fragment in some cases can trace the footnote of difficulty and figure of speech, which is unique in its own way and is considered to be a personal style of the poet. Thus, in the present research, after examining 321 existing fragments in Divan (According to Master Sajjadi's printing and correction) and upon the thematic categorization of them into 14 types, provide a general overview of the content and structure of these fragment.
