Song & Anthem- Literary Criticism
Baran, Dr S. Bejan
Synopsis "Song & Anthem- Literary Criticism"
SONG & ANTHEM- LITERARY CRITICISM is a collection of 40 articles on the lyrics, anthems, and literary tropes used in them. There are 4 articles on Omar Khayyam rubaiyat in terms of the narrator, eroticism, and lucidity. The mysticism is introduced and applied in the poetry of Sohrab Sepehry, a prominent Persian poet-painter. A new look with polyphonic interpretation at some of Hafez ghazals of seemingly unrelated couplets is proposed. The most popular Iranian anthems and songs are analyzed with syllabic meter and caesura rather than the traditional aruz. The poetry books of a half a dozen new poets are critiqued using deconstruction. The poetry of protest in the 20th century Persian literature is compared with American progressive writers and civil right activists. The rhythm in poetry and music is contrasted. Dr. Baran was born in Tehran, Iran; traveled extensively throughout the ancient plateau, all European countries, some North African cities, and most US states. Museums, cities, and natural spots were his favorite stops. He noticed similarities in the vegetation around the world. In climbing Tuchal heights in Northern Tehran on weekends, once he found a calcite fossil of a fish the size of a palm; later, in the West, he read about the contiguity of the continents under the super-continent Pangaea and the single Sarmatic Sea which covered Caspian, Azov, Aral and Black Seas as the remnants of the evaporated basin. Web search is his choice of accessing the human knowledge around the globe and throughout the history. He has a PhD, MS, and BS in Electrical Engineering and an MS in Nuclear Engineering all from University of Missouri, Columbia.
