Abstract

Literary devices, especially the aesthetic branch, are not so many in Mowlawi's poetry, and those that appear in his poems are not used for decoration and estimation, but are melted into the lines of poetry in a way that appears very natural. It is clear that the artistic and aesthetic aspect of Mowlawi's poetry is not limited to literary tools and to understand how this aspect is in Mowlawi's poetry, we must look for other characteristics. In this study, Mowlawi's poetry was examined in a descriptive-analytical manner in the field of art and aesthetics and the findings show that emotional simplicity as a dominant characteristic becomes the central theme of Mowlawi's art and beauty. This simplicity itself is the product of various factors between which there has been a meaningful and network relationship. "The structure of poetic mentality and poetic imagination" and "the type of poet's poetic audience" are the source of this simplicity in Molawi's poetry. "Not following literary traditions", "not relying on expressive patterns" and "truthful speech" are the main structures of this poet's poetic mentality and poetic imagination. The use of local natural and cultural phenomena is the main source of this simplicity.
