analysis and readout of gender role in sentimental poems of palestine

palestinian women have not only collaborated with men in issues such as social, political and cultural affairs but also in literary fields. they have even been pioneer in some fields. a number of senses of contemporary palestinian poetries have been considered by both genders which include different types of sentimental poetries such as ghazals and love poems. although ghazal has been among the most important types of palestinian poetry for long, there are certain differences between female ghazals and the male ones, which is an indication of physical and psychological differences between them. this research tries to study those differences and to find out the reasons. the research methods have been documentary and library methods. as a result women, in their poems, pay less attention to physical and beauty attractions in their love poems. instead, sentimental symbols have been considered by female poets and they use more codes and metaphors compared to male poets.
