Abstract
Considering their commitment, literature and poetry have a lasting, significant role in the culture of a nation. A great deal of contemporary Persian poetry is devoted to the Imposed War and the Sacred Defense literature. In the course of the eight-year Sacred Defense, women accompanied men in all domains and defended their country. In such a situation, some female poets expressed the concern for the legitimate defense of their country and, commemorating martyrs and alluding to various symbols and signs, protested against the oppression of Ba’athi invaders. Tahereh Saffarzadeh and Sepideh Kashani are two female poets who devoted their poetry to the defense of their country and their people. Both poets are highly interested in their land, comparing it with the mother. The two poets use human symbols such as Imam Hossein, Imam Mahdi, etc. to describe their nation’s warriors and martyrs, while they use animal symbols such as wolf and negative characters such as thief and Satan to describe the enemy. The present research investigates resistance elements in the writings of the two female poets, using descriptive research methodology and studying the themes of resistance literature pertaining to the Sacred Defense.
