Abstract :

Parvin Etesami is among the few famous female poets in Persian literature. Being influenced by the Islamic- Iranian culture, she analyzes the position of women in her contemporary era, and, addressing women, informs them of their capabilities and values. Reminding the women of the restrictions and difficulties they have undergone in the Iranian society, in her poems, Parvin attempts to present a realistic picture of women. She directly states that women should be regarded as the foundation and basis of life, and that it is through them that a comfortable life can be achieved. She believed that a man’s or a woman’s superiority is based on knowledge, skill, aptitude, mystical orientation, and chastity, and ignoring these factors causes their inferiority.
