Shahrvandān-i Shahrīvar Persiska (Farsi) 2024

Saeid Rezadoust, a researcher, writer, and poet, was born in 1985 in Neyshabur, Iran. A graduate in law, he has amassed years of professional experience working and writing in the fields of literature, law, and interdisciplinary topics. His background in journalism and proficiency in playing the dutar (specifically within the Khorasan North School) have equipped him with a unique perspective, enabling him to analyze and write about various issues comprehensively. Among his contributions to the field of research and analysis are notable works such as ‘The Way of Governance from the Perspective of Khwaja Nizamul-Molk Tusi’ (published by Negah Mu’aser, 2019), ‘The Last Days of Esfand: An Analysis of Hope in the Poetry of Shafi’i Kadkani’ (published by Asim, 2021), and his editing work, including the introduction and notes on Talebov’s translation of Marcus Aurelius’ ‘Meditations’ (published by Man-e Kitab, 2023). These books have been reprinted multiple times due to their significant impact.

Saeed Rezadoost, a researcher, author, and poet with a background in law and expertise in literature and interdisciplinary studies, has released his latest collection of contemporary ghazals titled "Shahrvandān-e Shahrivar" ("Citizens of Shahrivar"). Published by Asemana in Toronto, this work reflects Rezadoost’s multilayered perspective on life, poetry, and human experience.

"Shahrvandān-e Shahrivar" is a collection of modern ghazals that blends extensive experience in journalism and music (notably the dotar tradition of Northern Khorasan) with research, lived experience, and artistic expression. The collection explores human emotions and daily life while also engaging with philosophical and historical reflections, immersing the reader in a thoughtful and poetic atmosphere.

Previously, Rezadoost has published four other ghazal collections:

"Be Qoniye Bekeshim Pā-ye Tehrān rā" (2014) with an introduction by Dr. Mohammad Ali Mo’add

"Becharkh o Qoniye rā Aftābgardān Kon" (2016)

"Shab-e Darband, Sobh-e Āzādi" (2020)

"Bist-o Hashtom-e Esfand" (2022)

In addition to his poetic endeavors, he has conducted research and text analysis, publishing works such as "Ruznāmeh-ye Malekān", "Ruzhā-ye Akhar-e Esfand", and a translation of "Meditations" by Marcus Aurelius*, all of which have been reprinted multiple times.

"Shahrvandān-e Shahrivar" offers a comprehensive and profound experience of contemporary Persian poetry, where Rezadoost combines poetic language, historical context, and philosophical reflections to guide the reader on a journey through thought and emotion.
