A comparative study of looking at women from the social dimension in the poetry of Alam Taj (Jaleh) Ghaem Maghami Farahani and Forough Farrokhzad
Abstract
This study was conducted aimed at examining the views of two contemporary female poets, Alam Taj (Jaleh) Qaem Maghami Farahani and Forough Farrokhzad, on the gender, personality, and role of women in the family and society. Based on their bitter and sweet experiences, these two poets have composed poems describing the woman and her status. They sometimes placed the woman in a venerable position and much higher than the angels, and sometimes they considered a low and inferior position for her as if she was the only means of pleasure, joy, and delight. At the same time, none of them ignored the crucial role of a woman, which is her mother’s role, and in fact, had a relatively similar view of the woman in this study. At the same time, none of them ignored the core and crucial role of a woman, which is her motherhood, and in fact, had a relatively similar view of the woman.
