Abstract

Mir Jalāloddin Kazzāzi is one of the professors
of Persian Language and Literature who
has presented his reflections and meticulousness
on Hāfez’s poems in the form of a series of books
which include explanations about and reports of
Hāfez’s sonnets based on aesthetics. The author of
the present paper is going to introduce and criticize
the first volume of this series called Deir-e Mughān
which is a report of the first twenty sonnets of
Hāfez’s Divān (collection of poems). According to
the author, despite all the efforts made by the book
writer to provide a comprehensive report of Hāfez’s
literal and figurative arts in the poems, there are still
some shortcomings and probably mistakes in the
procedure or content of the report. Therefore, having
talked about the features and strong points of
the book, he points out the deficiencies and briefly
explains about his own suggestions with regard to
the meaning. In the last part of the article, the author
studies the first and fifth sonnets in details, and then
with regard to the other sonnets he mentions the report
problems or recommend some complementary
suggestions in the same order as the pages of the
book
