Abstract

The paradox in the texts of Qabad Jalilzadeh, This research strives to study a poetic theme in the works of a contemporary poet (Qubadi Jalizadeh), though not through conventional analytical methods of studying poetic themes. Rather, it investigates the poetic theme from the perspective of the poet's intellectual framework and studies certain texts that call into question the poet's own identity. This because it is hard to decide whether the poet was genuinely moved by this poetic theme and constructed his texts in its description, or if the opposite is true. While describing elements of this poetic theme, he simultaneously presents their contradictions and opposites.
Although in some instances his texts appear to deviate from his society's conventional beliefs, at their deeper structural level, the poet utilizes distinct patterns of thinking and composition, perceiving religious and sacred elements differently from the general populace, This has been discussed through both internal and external contradictions.
