Study of the role and presence of women in the stories and poems penned by male authors and poets; and the status of men in the works of female authors and poets is a topic of importance which can be carried out.
This research studies the outlook toward women in the works of a male author, and the outlook of a female poet toward men in her verse, while also investigating the impact of their perspective toward the opposite sex in their real lives. The question is whether presence of women in the works of men and vice versa has been highlighted, influential and constructive, or has been marginalized and faded. To this end, two contemporary literary figures, Sadeq Hedayat and Forouq Farokhzaad have been chosen to study their viewpoint toward the opposite sex in their works. The outcome of survey shows both of these two literary figures didn’t maintain a positive outlook toward the opposite sex, which in turn led to their pessimism and solitude in real life.
