Abstract

Dialogue is one of the most important means of conveying the content in a literary work. It has long been the focus of writers and poets. Sayed Ashraf al-Din Gilani, also known as Nasim-e-Shemal and recognized as one of the most popular poets of Iran's constitutional age, has used this technique in various ways. The present article is a study of his poetry from the perspective of how, to what extent, and for what purpose the poet has employed dialogues. The results show three types of dialogue in his poetry. They include multidisciplinary dialogues in three of his poems in the form of narrative, oration, and theatrical dialogues, two-way dialogues in six poems in the form of debates and ordinary dialogues, and one-way dialogues in 190 poems, which were employed in the form of vocative exclamatory sentences, imperative sentences, and interrogative sentences. In this study, first, the term dialogue and its types are introduced, and then discussions and subdivisions are made with examples. The themes used in the poems are also explained and evaluated.
