Read More Love and its related concepts are common archetypes of mankind and are as old as human life (Yung, 2002: 368). Arabic literature is a lyrical literature in which love is one of the main themes of its great poets. Abu Nuwas, an Iranian poet of the Abbasid era, who is considered one of the masters of Arabic literature, is one of the leading Arab poets in wine literature and ghazal (sonnet). In Persian literature, Sa’di has been considered as the true master of romantic poetry, and in his own words, "Sa’di's love is not a story that remains hidden." He is a poet who, in addition to being a master of Persian literature, is also a master of Arabic literature. Sa’di's knowledge of Arabic and his presence in scientific and literary circles of Nezamiyeh in Baghdad, Iraq, has convinced some people to regard Sa’di's poetry, especially his didactic poetry, as influenced by Arabic literature and its great poets because of the similarities it has with Arabic literature.This research compares the poetry of these two great poets and the similarities that existed in this important aspect of their poetry through studying their ghazals. The hypothesis of the research is based on the archetypal property of love and its innateness as well as Sa’di’s high poetic talent and his ambitious imagination while benefiting from Arabic literature. Authors believe that although Sa’di is completely familiar with Arabic literature and there are many conceptual similarities about love in the poems of these two poets, these similarities are not confirmation of the influence of Abu Nuwas on Sa’di. Actually, it is better to say that these similarities are the result of telepathy rather than influence.Therefore, the present research conducts a qualitative content analysis of the ghazals of these two poets from the perspective of the American school of comparative literature. The necessity and importance of this research is due to the fact that studying ancient literature with its unique eloquence and relation between past with the present is one of the necessities in literary research. It is especially important that this relationship is based on the assessment of national literature with one of the richest periods of Arabic literature, in order to better show the poetic art of Sa’di and his skill to Persian-speaking readers. Comparative literature can provide a better understanding of national literature by welcoming the conflicts of opinions and thoughts, while emphasizing the preservation of native identities and respecting national literature and culture.
