Abstract :

The myths of various people are full of profound and valuable concepts that narrate the deepest tensions and inner states of human beings. These myths, while involving the unreal, reveal truths behind them that reveal themselves in hidden and overt manifestations. Among these facts is the desire and hope of man to have a sublime and beautiful world, which is reflected in the actions of the heroes of mythology and other themes such as love and immortality. Arash Kamangir is one of the ancient Iranian myths, the most understanding of which is devoted to the subject of patriotism and heroism on the way home, and many poets have recited it implicitly or openly and independently, which can be said the most detailed and beautiful of them is the poem of Arash Kamangir Siavash Kasraei. In this research, one of the basic concepts of this poem is analyzed, which is aimed at giving hope and reaching a higher level and a more fruitful life. The subject of hope and understanding of human utopia is also one of the topics discussed by the German philosopher and writer Ernst Bloch. Ernest Bloch is known as the philosopher of hope. In this research, some of his words and views are explained in the text of Arash Kamangir's poem by Siavash Kasraei.
