Lovers in Search of Freedom: Alda Merini; Parveen Shakir

Öz

Alda Merini and Parveen Shakir can be described as two female poets who were born in two different geographies, grew up in diverse cultures, gained variant life experiences, were kneaded with different pains but carry the happiness and pains of the same feeling in their hearts; Love. Alda Merini, as one of the leading female poets of Italy, brought the theme of love, which she addressed, together with the reader with a protestant attitude and in this respect, revealed the combative aspect of love. Parveen Shakir, on the other hand, made a balm out of the sprout of love that sprouted amidst impossibilities, which she added to the dough of the land she was born in, and managed to become hope for women in Pakistan. This article focuses on the way two different languages and two different names process love in the same language and tries to present a literary analysis of the life stories of two combative women.
