Mowlavi’s Approaches and Methods of Hyperbole in Masnavi
What is mentioned in the rhetorical writings about the term ‘Hyperbole’ is mainly limited to the customary and rational classification of exaggeration into Mobaleghe, Eghragh, and Gholov. These contents do not properly express the importance of this rhetorical term. The present descriptive-analytical study aims to investigate Maulavi's approaches to creating hyperbole in Masnavi by means of verbs, dimensions, and sizes (numbers). The results show that in terms of ‘Verbs’, figurative attribution is one of the most used means and artistic forms of creating hyperbole in Masnavi, especially because it is directly connected with contrast and contradiction and other literary aesthetic issues. In terms of ‘Size’ and ‘Number’, it is shown which numbers and sizes were effective in creating hyperbole in Masnavi. In terms of ‘dimensions’, what can be seen is that hyperboles are made in two ways in Masnavi: space hyperboles and time hyperboles. These types of hyperbole are the most used types in Masnavi with many examples in this book. Finally, another method of using hyperbole is to use plural signs, for example, the sign ‘Ha’ (in Persian grammar), and also the use of double plural-made words, in a non-normative way. Based on these explanations, it can be said that Maulana (604-672 AH) is very interested in making hyperbole. By using various types of hyperbole in his poems, he makes mystical thoughts and views effective and acceptable.
