Abstract

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Archetypes express specific mental states of human beings and by comparing the style of application of elements and concepts of archetype, we can understand the difference between the literary style of the period and the personal style of poets. The pattern of mask and shadow in contemporary poetry and its effect on the intellectual style of poets, the poems of three prominent poets of modern poetry: Forough Farrokhzad, Sohrab Sepehri and Mehdi Akhavan Sales have been studied.

METHODOLOGY: The data collection of the article is a study of a library with fishing tools and its writing method will be descriptive-analytical. The statistical population includes the collection of poems of Forough Farrokhzad, Mehdi Akhavan Sales and Sohrab Sepehri.

FINDINGS: In this article, we have examined the general tendency of poets in choosing an intellectual style with the archetype of the mask and shadow., There is a social reformer and a mystic in their poetry, all three have a romantic mask at the beginning of poetry, but Farrokhzad and the Third Brotherhood turn to social poetry and narrate the disorder of society with the masks of critic, reformer, fighter, patriot. In their poetry, the negative aspects of the shadow are revealed and they reach despair, sadness, death-thinking and emptiness. Farrokhzad is involved with the shadow of a lover until the end of a poem with a shadow, turns to mysticism and with the knowledge of the shadow and mastery of negative desires, the masked reformer has the mystic as a poet until the end.

CONCLUSION: All three poets have the mask of a romantic poet, but in a comparative study and comparison of style, Farrokhzad and the Third Brotherhood have used the masks of critic, protester, fighter, and patriotism. The mask of a lover has also continued in Farrokhzad"s poetry with these masks. In these masks, the negative aspects of the shadow are reflected in their thoughts, but Sepehri is involved with the negative aspect of the shadow in the beginning of his poetry in the romantic mask.
