Abstract

Hafez Shirazi's poems are masterpieces of Persian literature that have captivated their readers for many years. Shahriar is also among those who have been fascinated by the magical power of Hafez's words and have created memorable works by being influenced by his poetry. The overall goal of this article is to demonstrate the influence and its mechanism, which also encompasses more specific objectives. Therefore, Shahriar's Influence on Hafez is categorized and considered at two general levels: linguistic and intellectual. Standard meter and rhyme, the use of similar combinations and expressions, the mention of Hafez's name in Shahriar's poems, the ghazals in which Shahriar praised Hafez, and the poetic titles derived from Hafez's expressions are examined. Examining the influence of poets on one another leads to a deeper understanding of literary works and the discovery of more nuanced thoughts on poetry.

The impact of this investigation on the development of skeptical talent and the nurturing of contemporary poets, as well as the relationship between close and creative poetry, is undeniable. The impressionability of one poet on another poet shows the wisdom and skeptical attitude of writers about each other and explains how they relate to their predecessors. The overall aim of this article is to examine the effectiveness and its approach.
