Abstract :
Beauty and love in Iran have a very ancient history. Although Iranian writers and poets have spoken much about beauty and love, But they have not given a clear definition of this concept, Rather, they have always found themselves fascinated by beauty and love. The aesthetic structure that emerges among these research topics, It looks different from what is said in today's aesthetics. Suhrawardi has used the word Hassan in his speech about beauty and has considered Hassan as synonymous with beauty and perfection. The connection between Suhrawardi beauty and love are two fundamental categories that can be cautiously attributed to today's aesthetics. As Bamgarten first put it in a Latin-language book called Aesthetics in the West, which is not entirely about beauty. Rather, parts of it are about beauty, and in fact most of it is about epistemology. However, Suhrawardi also has few references to beauty in his treatise "The Truth of Love" and does not deal directly with aesthetics and art. For this purpose, considering the position of beauty and love in Suhrawardi's intellectual system, in this article, an attempt has been made by citing sources and by descriptive-analytical method. Let us first deal with his treatise "Haghihgat ul Eshgh", Then answer the question: what is beauty and mystical love? And how can it be adapted to modern aesthetics?
