The Cultural and religous Sources of Shafii Kadkani`s Poetry

Hojatollah Bahmani Motlagh(Author in Charge)

Abstract
By publishing 12 collections of poems and also dispersed poems in publications Shafii Kadkani is known as a prominent and stylistic poet between his contemporary counterparts. One of his stylistic features which makes his poetry outstanding is his rich poetry`s cultural backing. In this paper sources of this cultural backing and the facts of the appearance of its elements are considered to both finding the role of cultural heritage in creating modern works of art and knowing the poet`s mental tendencies. For this purpose the cultural elements are identified, extracted, classified and analyzed in these groups: the Islamic culture, the culture of the ancient Iran, the Persian literature, the Sufi`s literary heritage, the Arabic literature and the culture of the WEST. The consequences of this research show that other than the elements of the Iranian culture the cultural elements of the other nations are also present in Shafii`s poetry; and there is a two-way relationship between this poetry and the cultural heritage. On the one hand the cultural heritage makes Shafii`s poetry wealthy in both meaning and language, on the other this heritage itself comes out from the dusts of the history, continues to be alive with a new face and relates to modern life and society.
