Abstract

The present article, with regard to the fact that Hindi style created a new move in poetry and Persian language after almost one century of recess in the poetry of 9th century, investigates the causes of such regeneration in the poems of Naziri as one of the eminent representatives of that style. By exploring 200 sonnets by the poet, collecting various cases of such linguistic reformation and their structural analysis the author shows how the poet attempts to harmonize the language of his poems with the renewed concepts. In another words, since the poet requires a new language in order to express new concepts he examines various methods such as word formation, modification in the use of common words, making synonyms, borrowing from spoken language, making enriched compounds and avoiding grammatical rules. Some of those methods like word formation and modification in the use of common words have made the language of his poetry rich, while some others like avoiding morphological and syntactic rules haven't shown successful results and have led to ambiguity and weakness of his poetic language.
