Timelessness of Mythical - Archetype in Forogh_e_Farrokhzad's Poems

Abstract

In today's world, the critique of mythology-archaeology as one of the research approaches in human sciences has been noticed by the thinkers of knowledge field. Time is one of the mythological archetypes, which has been widely reflected in literary texts, and in connection with this archetype in mythological analysis, we encounter something called timelessness. Timelessness refers to things that happen out of history; this means that issues that are not recorded in any history books; but is always influential in human life and thought. By examining Forogh Farrokhzad's poetry, we found out that he consciously and unconsciously included the apprehension and passing of time in his poetry; and then, from posing the question and stating the hypotheses of the research, as well as introducing research works similar to this thesis, we discussed the theoretical foundations related to the topic of analysis, and then, according to the theoretical foundations, we analyzed the poems that used the old language of time with the concept of timelessness, and we reached the conclusion that Farrokhzad, with a simple language, has introduced the deep concepts into his poetry, and his searching mind always seeks to go beyond the conventions. In this research, we used the theories of mythologists such as Levi Strauss, Mircea Eliade, and Carl Gustav Jung. The working method in this research is descriptive-analytical and it has been tried to analyze the concepts and words related to mythological-archaic timelessness in Forogh Farrokhzad's poems.
