Excellence of Human Character in the Poems of Simin Behbahani Based on the Theory of Erich Fromm

Human beings today, due to the growth of industry and technology, have departed from ethical standards and values, so they need to do everything in their power to promote this vitality. Erich Fromm does not consider psychology to be separate from ethics, so he views human nature and personality in life as a combination of non-fertile orientations, including recipient, exploitative, market-oriented, and fertile and spontaneous. He extensively values human dignity because he believes in the principle of humanity in the life of humanism. Man has a high place in Behbahani's poetry because he believes in the existence of the Necessary Being and believes in it as a source of power beyond man. The purpose of this essay is to analyze the orientations of personality (fertile and non-fertile) in the psycho-sociological approach of Erich Fromm in Simin Behbahani's poems in order to understand his personality and thoughts more and more. The research method in this study is analytical-descriptive. Behbahani and Fromm consider man's place in existence, his evolution, prosperity, and achievement of goodness and transcendence, but the obvious difference between them is the man-centered forum and religion-centered behavior.
