Abstract :

The two epic poems Bahman Nameh and Kush Nameh are among the national epics that were organized after Ferdowsi's Shahnameh and following it in the late 5th and 6th centuries and played a significant role in completing the narratives and stories of the Shahnameh. By carefully and reflecting on these two works, one can understand the necessity of ordering and printing the works after the Shahnameh in keeping alive the Persian language and the stories of ancient Iran, which Iranshah bin Abi al-Khair, with all his love and devotion, devoted himself to order and compose it. In these two epic verses, on the occasion of many conflicts and grudges between the main characters of the story and their enemies, we are faced with numerous scenes of war and battle; So that the main characteristic in Bahman Nameh and Kush Nameh can be considered as the category of war and fighting, and the best descriptions in these two books can be considered specific to the battlefields. But in the midst of these epic stories, we come across lyrical and romantic scenes that are actually the meeting place of epic and poetry. These stories, while being epic, have the characteristics of Ghanaian stories. In this research, the author tries to investigate the love effects in these two verses by descriptive-comparative method. The results of the research indicate that these two poems are an epic poem. be; But the manifestations of love and romantic relationships can be seen everywhere in these two works.
