        As the first prose Persian book about critical literary and rhethoric Tarjoman-Al-Balagheh has a unique role in these debates and subjects and their analysis. Writing this book, Radviani became the leading in prose literary issues and entered common ideas and thoughts of poem aesthetics, which was mostly in Arabic language, in Persian language and Iranian culture thereby made those issues vernacular to some extent. While creating this work, he stepped an important pace to theorise Persian prose and make it scientific; prepared the ground for addressing these topics in a greater leisure; and made new wave among thinkers and literary commentators – including Rashid VatVat and his followers – and, through centuries exercised Literature scholars’ and friends’ mind and written. In addition to its prominent role in initiating and linking cultural and literary debates, this book presented many ideas and new opinions concerned to criticism, eloquence, and figures of speech; sometimes tended to practical and even structural criticism of thought and poem in those days and offered new and excellent notes to the learned. In addition to explain the position of Tarjoman-Al-balagheh in Iranian culture and literature – partly addressed by Ahmad Atash and mostly left out -, this article sought to explore Radviani’s thoughts and opinions about poem and its constituents in detail and construction and form and meaning in poem as well. While this book criticized as a whole and analyzed structurally and comparatively, Radviani’s origin, his view point, methods of analyzing literary figures and his defects and strength have been studied and criticized, too.

        Apparent similarity and difficult distinction between principles and rules of naturalism and realism, resulted in many mistakes for critics. So that sometimes naturalistic works introduced realistic works. In this essay principles and rules of these schools criticized and analysed in prominent works of Emile zola (Nana) and Balzac (Le pere Goreiot). While persons of NaNa are ordinary and usual, each represents specific social stratum and the author don’t emphasize on type – making. But in Le pere Goreiot persones given special salience (type) though they selected from society. Criticism in naturalistic works considered as struggle with diseases targeting organic unitary of community. But in realistic works, the deepest origins of social conflicts are investigated. Although, scientific rules of naturalism allows to address any object, regardless of class, subjects of naturalistic works often include middle class and lower class. But the realist writer in his/her works mostly focuses on realities and labour class suffers, in spite of dramatizing both high class and lower class. Most of naturalistic novels ended sorrowfully and tragic and annoy readers. yet realistic works, in spite of their dramatic and tragic end, are not catastrophic to this extent. Manuscript profile

        Music is a component of poem and its constituent. Music highlights the speech and differentiates poem from prose. This article addresses this aspects of poem and connection between song of speech and other elements. To this end, firstly we define music and its sorts in Persian poem, then the connection between music of poem and subject, imagination and feelings. This study shows that music of poem along side four division by Persian literary men, divides to three categories: external music (prosodic aspect of poem) side music (special song of harmony between ending words of half. Vers “Row and rhyme”) and medial music (different harmonies resulting from rhetorical communications and meaning relevances). But poem is an account of society, principles, faith, and poet’s thoughts; and music of poem is his/her language of heart and his/her feelings. Different styles of poetical music – that is, rhythm, rhyme and raw and words and vocable - are elements which transfer meaning, feeling and imagination of poet to audience and musical variety, in this regard, is an important factor in inducing subject and poetical feelings to others. Maintaining harmony and relations between poetry music and other elements, poet attempts to approach to main purpose of poem, that is, impressing notions and internal contains of poem.
