Abstract :

Boshra Al-Bostani in contemporary Arabic poetry and Tahereh Saffarzadeh in the field of contemporary Persian literature are considered to be the true preachers of anti-authoritarianism. The two mentioned poets, who represent the sensitive, conscious and cultured strata of their society, were able to compose exciting poems and stimulate the people’s dormant emotions in order to leave lasting literary works in the interests of their land in addition to influencing events and happenings.The present study, which is descriptive – analytical and enjoys the library method, seeks to examine the concept of anti-authoritarianism, which is one of the most important common themes of the poems of these two from the perspective of comparative literature. The results of the present article indicate that the most important common themes in two mentioned resistance poets’ poetries are concepts such as expressing the miserable situation of the country, exposing the oppression of internal enemies and colonialists, and the effects and consequences of their attack on Iraq and Iran, and finally calling on the people to maintain unity in order to defeat the enemies.
