Abstract

Anima and Animus are two ancient and very famous models in literature, which were first proposed by
Psychologists like Jung. This image has been repeatedly presented by researchers out of the poems of different poets. The ancient pattern Anima is a semi female part of men and Animus is the semi male part of women.
The formation of these ancient patterns is influenced by the mother and father and it may change depending on individual and social circumstances. A sense of oneness with the ancient model will lead in maturity of personality. Safarzadeh has unconsciously presented these images in his poems in different forms. The initial formation of the image in the family is very positive, but in some circumstances it may appear nagative.
