Abstract

One of the prominent concepts in formalism is “defamiliarization”. In this method, the poet, relying on the principle of strangeness and freshness of language, employs techniques that ultimately alienate the text from the audience. Deviation from norms is one of the main and effective methods of this approach. Leech categorizes defamiliarization into eight types: phonetic, semantic, syntactic, lexical, stylistic, dialectal, orthographic, and archaic. In Persian poetry, Khaghani Shervani is a norm-breaking poet who, relying on his abundant wit and artistic creativity, has used features in his poems that distinguish his poetic style from other poets. A large part of the defamiliarization in his poems is related to the structure and use of vocabulary. This article is written to investigate the structure of vocabulary and the use of different types of defamiliarization in Khaghani's poetry. We have used the descriptive-analytical method and focused on his collection of poems. We have concluded that a large part of the prominence and complexity of Khaghani's poetry is due to the use of various types of defamiliarization in the field of vocabulary. Khaghani has constantly been able to present the freshest poetic images and add to the freshness of his language by creating new words and phrases, using unfamiliar words from the Turkish language and other languages, words related to different religions and sciences, colloquial expressions, and using non-standard forms of words.
