Among them, two poets from two different eras seem to be more famous and influential comparing to the others.The first poet is Mirza Showghy from Naseri era. Through expressing publicly accepted religious concepts including the event of Karbala, praising the holy prophet of Islam and the leading Imams as well as writing his poems in the dialect of Kohgilooye and Behbahan, he could perpetuate his influence on the people’s minds of that era, as well as the next generations.
