Abstract

"Tasnif", which in different periods has been mentioned as "song" or "Tarang", really has been developed in constitutional revolutionera. In spite of "Sheyda" precedence, Arif Ghazvini played a more effective and popular role in the flourishing of the Tasnif as an important literary genre.

With a descriptive-analytic method, the author attempts to explore and analyze Ghazvini’s deconstruction way of the mystic Tasnifs in comparison with the abstract poetry, as well as to show its prominent features produced by the immediate symmetry of the word and melody.The findings of this study show that the Tasnif, given its combination feature such as congregation of melodies, rhythms, meanings and words, has a unique and distinct form and structure of abstract poetry impacted totally by rhythm and melody; The result of this melodic domination is linguistic, musical, and formal deconstruction is that, in the context of special innovations and baselines for sprosody, musical reading will be dominate on the Tasnif on its written form, as well as link the semantic, formal, and rhythm with the word with and the melody.
