today, persian poetry is of great importance to many scholars around the world. the interest and attention of various cultures toward such a fine literature has given quite a good motivation for a comparative study. the major concern of the study is to investigate how nature is depicted through the works of the great english poet, william wordsworth (1770-1850) and the outstanding contemporary persian poet sohrab sepehri (1928-1980). the two express a rather similar concept of worshiping nature and choosing solitary places to avoid the corruptions which city life can bring, while being sharply separated in time and geographical place. thus, the work holds its major issues, piety toward nature, industrialization and pantheism, as the concern of both poets, and would illustrate from the mentioned points the role of nature as a meditative craft and similarity of attitudes toward pantheism, rural areas and modernity in the poetry of both. what would come next is the study of selected prominent symbolism in poetry of sepehri and wordsworth.
