Abstract
This article analyzes the deployment of multiple genres (poly-genric) capacity and particularly the narrative games as a rhetorical device and figure of poetic language in Lima Afshid’s poetry so that it illustrates the ways in which the narrative operates as literary subterfuge within her verse. It highlights how narrative creates suspension and anachrony within the poem. The narrative is an important device that esthetically creates the possible world into the poetic language of Lima Afshid. Narrative poetry is one of the oldest literary art forms in world literature that represents and mimics epic, theosophy, and love to put the plot to poesy, combining the art of storytelling with the techniques of poetic language. The main purpose of narrative in classical Persian poems was storytelling, since in the modern era and especially in this poem, the narrative is used as a rhetorical device in regard to esthetic purposes. A poem that contains both, the figures of poetic language and the technique of narration stands as a poly-genric form that is in constant dialogue with the esthetic possibilities and rhetorical devices of other genres. The outcome of such an analysis is a deeper understanding of the narrative structure, signification, and the usage of narrative techniques are the significant elements of beauty and fascination in this poem.
