Abstract
This article, adopting a phenomenological approach and focusing on the fundamental concepts of Heidegger’s philosophy, provides an ontological analysis of Khābnāmeh (dream narrative) by Yaghma Jandaghi, centered on existential questions. It examines the representation of dream/death and being within the framework of Dasein’s experience. In Heideggerian philosophy, Dasein refers to the questioning being, continuously engaged in the pursuit of meaning and identity in relation to time, death, and other existential dimensions. In this study, dreams and sleep are considered not only as contexts for Dasein’s lived experience but also as liminal conditions between life and death, providing a field for the emergence of existential tensions. From a psychological and ontological perspective, these states offer an experience akin to a rupture from everyday life and an encounter with the most concealed aspects of human existence. Drawing on key Heideggerian concepts related to Dasein and fundamental ontology, such as “hiddenness,” “existential anxiety,” and “being-there/being-in-the-world,” the study demonstrates that dreams, conceived as death and as figurative experience, position Dasein on a trajectory that confronts the hidden dimensions of existence and self. Furthermore, Dasein’s internal conflicts during the processes of dreaming and awakening reflect the fundamental tension between authentic and inauthentic possibilities of being, which can simultaneously be interpreted as a symbolic manifestation of the existential struggle between good and evil in Heidegger’s philosophy. Consequently, the dreams in this work symbolically invite Dasein to face the truth, make existential choices, and recognize human limitations, thereby facilitating a deeper understanding of being and human identity.

Abstract
Yadollah Royā’i is one of the contemporary poet-theoreticians who holds thought-provoking views regarding the nature and essential components of poetry. This research, conducted using a descriptive-analytical method and library resources, seeks to examine the essence of poetry in relation to Royā’i’s philosophical and aesthetic thought, focusing specifically on his perspectives.The findings indicate that Royā’i, relying on Husserl’s Phenomenology and inspired by Heidegger’s ideas, views poetry not as a representation of reality, but as a “definition” and the “transcendent presence of language” in existence. In his transition from the oral tradition to the written, he highlights the role of visual awareness in the poetic experience. Royā’i emphasizes the triad of Man, World, and Language, considering poetry to be the result of the dynamic and internal interaction of these three elements. He argues that the excessive focus on any one of these elements leads to the exclusion of the other two and weakens the ‘alchemy of the word.’ Based on this foundation, poetry is not the product of divine inspiration, but the result of the conscious “invocation” (Ehzār) of language. In this approach, Volume Poetry (She’r-e HḤajm) is the field for the realization of this awareness and the intuitive experience of phenomena. He calls Form the generative essence of poetry and Image (Taṣvīr) its fundamental pillar. While he does not consider conventional meter (vazn) a necessary factor for poetry, he believes in the necessity of a kind of internal rhythm and musicality. He points out that, in addition to poems written in 'arūḍī meter, he has introduced new rhythms that had no precedent in traditional prosody. In Royā’i’s thought, poetry transcends mere linguistic structure; it is an act of re-defining existence, meaning, and human experience within the realm of language.
