Understanding the Abstractness of Poetry through the Concreteness of Lapidary
This article presents an examination of the utilization of a conceptual metaphor that maps the art of poetry onto the craft of lapidary in the works of Niẓāmī Ganjavī (1141–1209), a prominent Persian poet known for his innovative use of poetic imageries and literary devices.

Stylistic techniques to generate humor
This article scrutinizes the utilization of stylistic devices for the generation of humor in literature, with a particular focus on Ḥadāʾiq al-Siḥr fī Daqāʾiq al-Shiʿr (Gardens of Magic in the Minutiae of Poetry), authored by Rashīd al-Dīn Waṭwaṭ (d. 1182).
