A comparative study of nostalgia in Piramerd poetry and Badr Shakir al-Siyab

The political and social situation in Iraq was very disturbed during World War II, and the country was not spared the consequences of this war and the British occupation. In such an environment the conflict of political and social thoughts and ideas and struggles spread and as a result many literary schools such as romanticism, realism, symbolism were found in literature and people were affected by these conditions mentally and psychologically. The old and the old also lived in such conditions. In order to save themselves from this state of mental distress, they attempted to reclaim their inner peace, and this is well reflected in their poetry, which is referred to as nostalgia poetry. In fact, nostalgic poetry is a literary process in which poets try to free themselves from the current state of disarray and seek refuge in their past in order to achieve mental peace. In this research, it has been attempted to use a descriptive-analytical approach to examine the comparative study of nostalgia in the poetry of the renowned Iraqi poet Piramerd and Badr Shaker Al-Sayyab.
