The Depiction of the Saviour Character of the Doomsday on Peramerds' Sayings Based on the Charismatic Theory of Max Weber

Abstract

There are three prominent figures of the end times: the Mahdi, Jesus and the Antichrist. Hence the work endevor to elaborate those figures. Max Weber, especially, demonstrates the concept of leadership and his role in religious, social, and economic change, which has been taken into consideration in the work. This is included and analysed in the poems of the poets based on the content of Max Weber’s Charismatic Leader. In the poet's poems, these faces —Mahdi and Jesus (peace be upon them) —as the religious leader of the saviour, the Antichrist, have been depicted as a deceiver, a subversive, and an anti-liberationist, more than in his religious role, not only in his poems.

Moreover, the work reflects religious and traditional beliefs, as well as social and political efforts, national identity challenges, and foreign occupation; injustice and inequality are among the symptoms. Among the themes are salvation, social change, and defence against the unpleasant and corrupt influences of environments. Also, this research, by studying several examples of ancient proverbs, shows several ways to save in Kurdish literature.

There is always a meaningful connection between literature, religion, and society, especially in relation to the history of Kurdistan during the early twentieth century. Research indicates that the poet's libertarian personality is more prominently reflected in Piramird's poetry than in traditional or religious perspectives. These themes serve as tools for defending discourse, restoring national identity, critiquing, and organising against corrupt policies. Various studies could further explore these aspects. In these poems, the liberators embody a map of change, representing societies often excluded from the viewpoints of an oppressed nation.
