Özet
Bulud Garachurlu Sahand was born in Maragha, one of the ancient centers of science and culture in Azerbaijan, into a working-class family. Fifty-three years of his life (1926-1979) coincided with the reign of the Pahlavi regime, under which non-Persian communities in Iran experienced the saddest period in their history. From an early age, Sahand joined the political movement for national rights, was physically and mentally tortured, twice arrested, and deported. He is one of the Azerbaijani poets who created the greatest poetic heritage in the native language despite the ban on writing in the native language during the regime. Sahand's political verses and poems are still relevant in terms of ideas and content.
Abstract
Bulud Garachurlu Sahand was born in Maragha, one of the ancient centers of science and culture in Azerbaijan, into a working-class family. Fifty-three years of his life (1926-1979) coincided with the reign of the Pahlavi regime, under which non-Persian communities in Iran experienced the saddest period in their history. From an early age, Sahand joined the political movement for national rights, was physically and mentally tortured, twice arrested, and deported. He is one of the Azerbaijani poets who created the greatest poetic heritage in the native language despite the ban on writing in the native language during the regime. Sahand's political verses and poems are still relevant in terms of ideas and content.
