المقارنه بين السنايي وابي العتاهيه في الفكر الزهدي و ذكر الموت

Perhaps, the meditations of literati and poets about supernatural subjects would lead their poems to mysticism and asceticism. These meditations about death as life’s permanent partner and also their points of view are among the discussions which has occupied a significant position in various aspects of world literature. Although this subject is considered of the common and potential experiences of human communities, but because of the closeness and historical relationship between Iranian and Arab nations and also the presence of sparks of nearing ideas among them, have resulted in a comparison between Sanai, Iranian poet, and Abu-l-ʹAtahiya, Arab poet, in the fields of asceticism and reflecting upon death. This comparison is done because of similar phases of lives of these two poets and also their profound influence from supernatural and psychological factors; it is a revolution which happens in their being and poetry. In addition, the effects of their spiritual and internal revolutions can be searched in poetical structure, main themes of their ideas and nearly similar reactions.
