Mysticism in the Works of Mostafa Mastour

Maryam Jafari

Abstract

In this article, it has been tried to study the mysticism trend of Mostafa Mastour. What are the components of this mysticism and how it itself will be manifested in language? The mysticism of the works of this contemporary writer will be achieved through three repetitive features which are the religious experience, gnostic language, and language poetical structure. In addition to these three main components, three sub-components are prominent in this works which reinforce the concept of mysticism in his writings. These features include getting the real love through the virtual one, narrative style, and the ones who are mad at love (Oghalaye Majanin). Most of his texts are dominated by the negative mysticism; as well, the affirmation of metaphors in his works is based on the anthropological or internal mysticism. The path of mysticism trend in his writings is declining during the 90s to the 80s, and it can be said that the 80s is the culmination of his mystic concerns.
