Abstract:

Unconventional behavioral actions in a conventional situation create a type of humor called situational humor. Hafez is a master of situational satire, because along with trying to reach the peak of literary performances, sensitivity to political and social issues is also one of the main concerns in her life and poems. There are more types of situational humor in his poems than literary humor. This shows that during Hafez's era, the behavior of political and cultural figures was so mocking, surprising and contradictory that poets like Hafez and Obaid Zakani did not feel much need to create humor in an artificial way in their poems and works. By portraying current realities in society, they have created different types of humor, which is called situational or behavioral humor. By creating idealistic characters such as Pire Moghan and Rende Bazari, Hafez tries to model acceptable common values ​​as the most suitable substitutes against the dominant and hateful political, religious and mystical discourses ruling the society.
