Symbolism And Emaism In The Poetry Of Fazl Ahmad Khusro

Abstract

Plato's name comes first in the discussion of literature. This famous Greek philosopher. In the history of human thought, knowledge is considered to be the teacher, leader and commentator. Plato openly discusses this in his famous treatise, Democracy. According to Plato's concept, there are two worlds. One that is real and eternal. In which there can be no change. This is the world of ideas or the world of example. The other one is the manifestation of appearance, change and time. This is the world of senses. Everything in the second world is a copy of some concept of the first world, and therefore better than it. The poet depicts the objects and events of this temporary world. That is, it copies. But this world and its objects are themselves copies of the universal example. So literature is a copy of a copy. Aristotle was the first thinker who established some purely aesthetic principles in this regard. Such a definition of nothing is possible. Which completely covers all the beauty and victory of anything, the same is the case with literature. What is literature? This question is as important today as it was before Plato. It is said that art is related to beauty. Performing any work well is called art. And art leads to the satisfaction of good taste in man. Among the many blessings that God has blessed man with, prayer is the most important. Which creates gentleness, civility, politeness and kindness in human nature. On the other hand, immunity and competition are necessary for survival. In order to live life and overcome resistances, there are also anger and anger, honor and humility in man.
