Representation of the Inner World in Afsaneh Shaban-nejad's Poetry
Parvin Mortezaei (Author in Charge)
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Afsaneh Shaban-nejad, as one of the most prominent poets of children"s literature, has found a distinctive position by utilizing simple and melodious language and imaginative imagery. However, the various dimensions of the child"s "inner world" in his poetry have been less studied in a coherent and systematic manner, and this gap forms the main problem and necessity of the present study. The aim of this research is to explore how the various aspects of the child"s inner world are visualized and represented in Shaban-nejad"s poems; a world that is intertwined with childhood imagination and dreams on the one hand, and with emotional layers such as love, empathy, fear, and loneliness on the other.
METHODOLOGY: This research was conducted using a descriptive-analytical method and based on a library study and qualitative analysis of the text.
FINDINGS: The findings of the study show that Shabannejad"s fairy tale considers the child as an independent being with a rich mental and psychological world and creates a special poetic language for this world. By utilizing elements of folklore and local culture, internal and external music of the word, imaginative and yet familiar imagery, as well as symbolic characterizations of people, animals, and objects, he creates a space in which imagination, emotion, and spirituality are represented in an intertwined manner.
CONCLUSION: The results of the study indicate that children"s poetry in Shabannejad"s fairy tale is not simply a tool for direct education or fleeting entertainment, but also an effective platform for cultivating imagination, deepening emotional experiences, and strengthening the child"s spiritual and cultural identity. The representation of the inner world in these poems, with its subtle connection between imagination and reality, language and music, and the child"s individuality and collective culture, provides a valuable model for analyzing children"s literature as well as for the educational and cultural use of poetry in the educational system and cultural planning.
