Abstract :

Nature has always been a source of inspiration for poets with a special status in poetry in general. On the other hand, there are many common themes in Persian and Arabic literature due to their closeness in terms of common culture and religion as well as extended geographical boundary. Interactions between relevant countries have resulted in different imparts in different areas. The history of describing nature in poetry is as old as the history of the relevant literature which has undergone some changes at different stages. This study is an attempt to indentify such effective interactions in Persian and Arabic  Literature.
