Abstract

According to many researchers, Akhavān-Sāles is one of the firm believers in the Tradition in the new era. This reading, which is generally based on textual clues from the structure of Akhavān 's poetry, has become a macro-narrative in contemporary reviews. Now, the important and key question here is whether believing in the tradition, which is referred to under titles such as antiquarianism or Iranism, in its original and idiomatic meaning, it means a kind of dynamic discourse that observes the idea of positive changes and developments in the social and political environment, does it flow in the depth of Akhavān 's poetry and in her intellectual system or not? In other words, is Mehdi Akhavān-Sāles 's Iranism aligned with certain missions and ideals of Iranism in the constitutional revolution and in the discourse context and political atmosphere of post-constitutional Iran? In order to get the answer to this question, the poems of Akhavān have been studied and analyzed beyond the horizontal axis. The results obtained from the reception and analysis of these works show that although Akhavān-Sāles widely referred to the discourse of ancient Iran and especially its myths, it did not translate and then transmit the philosophical and theoretical aspect of this discourse in its intellectual apparatus. For this very reason, Akhavān 's traditionalism is simply a romantic regression and lacks solid theoretical foundations and frameworks. From this perspective, Mehdi Akhavān-Sāles 's antiquarianism and Iranianism have rebelled against his originality and true mission, which is the creation of Practice and the realization of the idea of development and progress.
