چکیده مقاله

Undoubtedly, the poems of Khosrow and Shirin and Masnavi Mawlana are considered as the masterpieces of Persian literature. Researchers have discovered many of the mysteries of the characters and elements of these stories by investigating the profound layers of these works. The present study, from a different point of view, aimed to analyze the element of love in the image of two women, Shirin in Khosrow and Shirin Nezami and Kanizak in the story of Shah and Kanizak Molavi irrespective of the living experience of their poets. In the words of Mawlana “Let’s become their friend from our own opinion” and investigate the differences and similarities of love in these two ladies. In this regard, this study by using analytical- comparative method and library research revealed that Mawlana has studied the Nezami’s Eskandarname to create the story of Shah and Kanizak since the same story is in Eskandarname. Thus, discovering the similarities and differences in these two stories are very interesting for researchers. Studies indicate that the common features of these ladies include: the erotic love, the presence of mentor and the presence of a love rival. The main differences include: the difference in the center of love and in the expression of love. So the romantic world of Kanizak and the love world of Shirin are as different as chalk and cheese. Shirin’s sacred and persistent love has replaced the colorful love and "love of color" of Kanizak, and the blue color of the honesty of love in the image of Kanizak’s love has turned black and bruised. In other words, the ideal world in the love of these two women are very different.
