Özet:

Pseudonym has begun to be used since the fourth century of Hegira in the Persian poetry. There are only fifty-eight couplets from the third century of Hegira, and these couplets do not include any pseudonyms. As the poet can choose a pseudonym for himself or it can be given by a poet who is accepted as a master. Persian poets have often expressed their pseudonyms at the end of their ghazals or qasidas. The first people whose pseudonym has survived in the Persian poetry are the poets Rudaki, Daqiqi, Kisa’i Marvazi, Menûchihrî and many poets of fourth and fifth century of Hegira. Pseudonym has gradually been placed at the end of the ghazals after the Mongol period. In choosing the pseudonym, some factors like familiar meanings and musicality have been considered. Metaphorical statement of the pseudonym varies according to the situation of the period. After the Mongol attack on Iran and the introduction of Persian poetry into India, pseudonyms such as “Miskîn”, “Gedâ”, “Âvâre”, “Mahzûn”, “Huznî”, “Hazîn” and “Bînevâ” gained popularity. Although many poets have found fame with their real names in Persian literature, there are some poets whose pseudonym is more famous than their real name. Pseudonyms are generally chosen in harmony with the poet's characteristics, tendency and worldview. In this article, pseudonyms of famous Persian poets and how pseudonyms in Persian literature take place in poetries are discussed.
