Abstract

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: In the history of Persian literature, each of the poets, based on their own thoughts and attitudes, has composed a lament and reflected their emotions in a lament. The element of emotion is presents in the mourning; The element of "emotion" in literature is equal to the "emotional self" And since mourning expresses human feelings and emotions, creates a good space to represent the "emotional self". By examining self emotions in the poet’s laments, in addition to revealing their mental and psychological states, we can understand the reasons for the poets" tendency to lament as well as their social atmosphere.

METHODOLOGY: In the present article, by qalitative analyzing the texts and based on library sources, after explaining and defining the "emotional self" and its types from a psychological and literary point of view, the most important elegies in the poems of persian poets from the age of Rudaki to the age of Hafez, have been examined.

FINDINGS: The results show that the highest frequency of limited and individual emotional self is in court elegies; The social self has the highest frequency in social and religious elegies, and the transcendent self in philosophical elegies; In familia and personal laments, the individual and transcendent_self have the most reflection.

CONCLUSION: The emotional action and empathy of language has always been important for great poets, because in this type of lingual action, the direction and tendency of the message is towards "self". Since the type of lament is the result of the contrast between the poet’s mind with the external hostile and bitter reality, therefore, the manifestation of the social and transcendent self is more. The evolution of the "emotional self" in the poems of these poets indicates their mastery of self and more attention to the spiritual world and the pass the physical world.
