Abstract

There is a bilateral relationship between Psychoanalysis and literature. Literature enlivens the soul and psychoanalysis dissects literature. What psychoanalysts express today has attended in the past literature and is proposed now scientifically after psychoanalysis was identified as a science. By analyzing an art work from the perspective of psychology, it seems being possible to understand artist’s personal characteristics and their reflection in his work(s). In this paper which is the result of critical reading of khāghāni’s jeremiads through a psychological approach, concepts such as sublimation, projection, self- deception, narcissism and social support,  and also the individual and collective unconscious attendance, shadow, the struggles of institution and super-ego have been investigated using an inductive method.
