Abstract

One of the main literal approaches to contemporary literary criticism is the examination of intertextuality. Introduced by Julia Kristeva, this approach paved the new way for text analysis. Unlike the traditional approaches to text analysis based on authors or poets’ genius, intertextuality discusses the effects which texts have on one another to create new works. In other words, a text, while being influenced by the previous text, would influence later works. In intertextual analyses, the main purpose is to represent the similarities existing in literary texts including poetry or prose. In literature, especially poetry, there are significant similarities that are useful for the better understanding of the texts. Malek-al-Sho’ara-ye Bahar is a late poet, writer and stylist. Studying his poems shows that he was influenced by traditional poets, especially Khaghani Shervani. This is despite his claim to have his own new style. The present study is an attempt to highlight this influence and indicate the similarities between these two poets. It is concluded that Bahar organized his poetic themes by profiting from Khaghani Shervani.
