A Comparative Study and Comparison of the Symbol from the Perspective of Ambiguity in the Poetry of Salman Herati, Seyed Hassan Hosseini and Tahereh Saffarzadeh

From the point of view of rhetorical sciences, the symbol is a word, phrase, or sentence that, in addition to its apparent meaning, induces a wide range of semantic meanings for the reader. The expression of mystical ambiguous ideas and the indirect reflection of political and social ideas in a symbolic form have caused a special emergence of the symbol in the Persian poetic discourse. In contemporary literature, in addition to the above-mentioned factors, the emergence of schools that have a special ambiguity increases the attention to symbolism. From this study, the symbols of contemporary poetry are the unraveling of the ambiguity that rules them. In this research, which has been done in an analytical-descriptive way and library method, the symbols symbolized in the city of Herati, Hosseini and Saffarzadeh, who are considered to be the leading poets of the revolution and war, have been examined in terms of ambiguity. In examining the symbol from the point of view of ambiguity, real symbols, the symbol can be defined according to its original definition and the cases close to the symbol, that is, the symbolic allusions and metaphors of the symbol. The results show that Herati with 55%, Saffarzadeh with 30.8% and Hosseini with 14.2% are in the first ranks to the third of symbolism; Therefore, it can be concluded that gender does not affect the process of symbolism, but depends on the style and approach of the poet.
