        Historical criticism and reading of literatures for their analysis, considering the historical events, have a long history, especially in Iran. This kind of criticism about Hafez poems, according to especial and unique features of his poems, has always been faced with two approval and denial viewpoints and opposed by the supporters of the formalist criticism. Comparing the formalist and historical criticism, the author tried to reveal that, considering the components such as the poet's era, poet's look at poetry and poet's job, this kind of criticism is not worthless because a detailed examination of the Hafez poems, based on the historical documents and the poet’s book of poems, reveals that from 625 poems of Hafez, 89 poems are of his certain dated poems; namely, 14%. If we want to add his eulogistic and historical impressions, Hafez has about 169 dated poems; namely, 27% showing that Hafez poetry enjoys a temporal and spatial determination. Therefore, extracting these poems can be one of the reasons for the usefulness of a historical criticism or look at Hafez poems. Manuscript profile
