The Excellent Image of Shah Mansour in Hafez’s Poems
Journal Title: Poetry Studies - Year 2022, Vol 14, Issue 2
Abstract
During Hafez's lifetime, several rulers came to power in Shiraz. From the Choupanids, Amir Pir Hussein, from the Injuids, Shah Mahmoud, Shah Massoud and Shah Abu Ishaq and from the Mozaffarids, Amir Mobarez, Shah Shoja, Shah Mahmoud, Sultan Zinal-Abedin, Shah Yahya and Shah Mansour. Some, such as Shah Shoja, ruled over Shiraz for a long time (more than two decades) and some, such as the Shah Yahya in a short period of time (less than a year). Due to his long association with the court, Hafez met and became acquainted with many princes and ministers. These interactions are widely reflected in Hafez's poems and the repetition of their names in his poems confirms this. Among the kings mentioned, he preferred three: Shah Abu Ishaq, Shah Shoja and Shah Mansour. Shah Mansour was the last king to rule in Shiraz during Hafez's lifetime, and the last years of Hafez's life were spent during his reign. A considerable number of Hafez's poems are dedicated to him in this short period of time, and it appears that the poet's interest and respect for this king is special.
