description The culture of every society comprises different parts. One of the most important constructive parts of each culture is literature or poetry which originates from the mythology, religion, and social/historical events. It is also one available source to explore the history of civilizations in different centuries. Having a deep knowledge of the change and development of the poetry over time is an effective step to recognize the political, social and cultural destiny of communities. With such a knowledge base, the relevant scholars can find out whether a society has progressed, regressed or hasn’t changed at all. Persian poetry has changed and developed during centuries in response to various political, social and cultural events. This study investigates the extent to which some Persian poets have been able to go beyond the common features of Indian style to adopt the style of ancient Persian poets in terms of word combinations, concepts and content. The comparison of the poetic features of Khorasani and Restoration periods show that even the most elaborate imitations of the ancient poets cannot be of the same value and originality. The imitators of great literary figures have never received the same amount of attention as the literary figures themselves. In fact, imitation is an indication of a static society where there is no room for innovation. This study, with use of statistical data, aims at exploring the extent to such imitators have successfully replicated the ancient literary masterpieces.
