Abstract

This article aims at the content and structural analysis of the poetry of Nasser Feyz, a contemporary satirical poet, in his four comic collections (i.e., The Omlete with Handle, Near the Cucumber Stub, Feyzbook and Feyzanlah). The authors first provide a precise definition of parody and then, based on that, analyze the content and structure of Naser Feyz's parodies. In terms of the content, those parodies both make at the readers laugh at satirical elements and raises criticisms of social, economic, moral, cultural and political issues. From the structural point of view, the rules of language, music, semantics and imagery are applied to create graceful inconsistencies that are in line with the paradigmatic structure. For example, the poet has shown his skills in the realm of language through word verbal games, word-formation, double pluralization, and folklore.
