Abstract
The poetry of the last two centuries has not been ineffective in myths, legends and ancient languages. Rafi Peak, derived from the great history of epic literature, is Ferdowsi's Shahnameh, which can be called the mother of Dari Persian literature from epic literature. In the last two centuries, epic works in literature, as a result of Ferdowsi's Shahnameh and the works of its predecessors, appeared in national, religious, historical, as well as passionate revolutionary epic creations. The general aspect of these works is the national color and smell. This prominence can be seen even in religious epics. The result of the study of epic works and epic genres is that the epic literature of the last two centuries can be divided into two periods. The period before Nima and the period after Nima: All the epic works of the pre-Nima period are based on Ferdowsi's Shahnameh in the same style, language, weight and traditional format. He considered the last imitators of Shahnameh. But in the period after Nima, the types of epic use in contemporary literature have been mostly in the three axes of epic attitude, epic language and epic weight and format.
