Abstract

Analyses of metaphor have been conducted, which show that this discussion of the science of expression is different from the view of cognitive linguists. From their point of view, metaphor takes place in the form of objectification of mental matters that can be understood with visual schemas. The distinction that is observed in metaphor in a new way is that mental concepts are simulated around us from the poet's point of view and the audience must refer to objective matters to understand them. One of these mechanisms is the concept of "love". This category is used in the poems of Foroughi Bastami and Tabib Isfahani in the form of conceptual metaphor. The present study seeks to be able to analyze the necessary tools for objectification of the expressed concept in the poems of the aforementioned poets. By analyzing their poems, it was found that Foroughi used more anthropomorphism in ontological metaphors, while Tabib Isfahani did not use love
