Poetry Functions as an interdisciplinary field

Abstract

Although the interdisciplinary as a scientific concept does not have a long history, but as a research procedure, has a long history as of research itself. The question this paper poses is that whether interdisciplinary is a specific area of the Western culture or has a track record in the East and especially Iran's history? This paper tried to show thatin addition to the interdisciplinary nature of some of the Iranian intellectual heritage, Poetry and Rhymes can be seen as a field with the function of interdisciplinary. Interdisciplinary functions of poem can be analyzed at three levels: The first level, is topics.The second is the problems. And the third level is the solutions. Persian poetry, though not strictly could be categorized as an interdisciplinary field, but viewing poetry as an emotional activitydue to vanity or vertu is a reductionistviewpoint. And if we look with a Phenomenological approach, regardless of the assumptions made, Poetry is one of the most lasting, deepest and most sacred among various cultural practices and human knowledge through the passage of time and has important functions in the organization of interdisciplinary fields; though it is not exactly an area of ​​interdisciplinary science with discipline.
