Aesthetics of artistic images in the Shahnameh of Ferdowsi

Ferdowsi's Shahnameh is a mirror of the whole of Iranian history, culture and art, in which situations, people, conversations, scenes and events are described with an artistic expression, and novel, attractive and beautiful images are presented to the reader. But how and by what tricks Ferdowsi created such a beautiful image has been the main subject of this research and an attempt has been made to examine the secret of beauty and charm of the great Ferdowsi's artistic illustrations in Shahnameh, especially from an expressive and novel perspective. This research is a descriptive-analytical method based on library studies and the results show that Ferdowsi with his unique mastery - which indicates the poet's mastery of the spirit of the Persian language - using the element of tone and its masterful combination with content and the use of imaginary forms such as similes, metaphors, allusions and metaphors, phonological and lexical compositions and combining it with original arrays such as repetition and phonemes, good reasoning, exaggeration, observance, etc., could show the peak of artistic images. It is unique in its kind.
