Description
"In Praise of Silent Poetry" by Houshang Golshiri is a collection of essays and literary criticism that delves into the essence and significance of Persian literature, particularly poetry, in Iranian culture. Golshiri, a prominent Iranian writer and intellectual, offers insightful reflections on the role of poetry as a means of expressing profound emotions, exploring existential questions, and challenging societal norms. Through his essays, Golshiri celebrates the power of silent poetry—the kind of poetry that transcends language and speaks directly to the soul. He examines the works of classical Persian poets such as Rumi, Hafez, and Khayyam, as well as modern poets like Forough Farrokhzad and Sohrab Sepehri, exploring their themes, styles, and contributions to the literary tradition.
