Abstract

Abstract Texts are linked and connected together with specific reasons and motives and in many different ways. Texts about the general history which are written throughout the history are not exceptions. Shahnameh is a pre – text that its presence in the public historical writings indicates an inter‌textual relationship between these two texts from different and at the same time related branches. So the research question in this paper is that how has been the intertextual connections between Shahnameh and public historical writings from the fifth to mid-eighth century? For this purpose, we took advantage of Gerard Genette’s intertextuality theory, which is a perfect theory for finding all aspects of an intertextual relationship. The main purpose of this research is to discover and analyze different transtextual relations with Shahnameh in public historical writings. The research methodology is library research and the data analysis method is qualitative. The results obtained from the study indicate that historians knowingly and consciously and under the influence of their social situation and the Supportive institutions have established intertextual relationships with Shahnameh by writing public historical writings to achieve their own goals and motives ; and in this regard, they have taken advantage of four types of transtextuality, that is intertextuality , architextuality, paratextuality and metatextuality, respectively from the one used most to the one used least.

Abstract

This study examines the dialectical mechanism and absurdity, which have occupied the bulk of concerns of contemporary writers, thinkers and philosophers. Zakaria Tamer, who begins the song "Blue Coarse" with a philosophical vision interspersed with absurdity, realistic black criticism and rhetoric toward those influenced by materialism and machinations in this degenerate world where original values and ideals were lost. As such, the basic problem of the research is to determine the role of the text's semantics and its thresholds which help readers absorb the subject mentioned in "the Blue Coarse" to plot based on the theory of French critic Gerard Genette, who shows his critical experience of relations and transcendental transcripts in different ways. The most important findings of this study are based on the descriptive-analytical approach. The title and effectiveness of color, text, space, time, and the character in the semantic field based on the coding and displacement through metaphors, as receptive mechanisms, illustrates the ability of Tamer in the field of creativity and the reflection of absurdity that makes man depart from humanity and self-purity. Many of them seek to rebel the pressure and change the harsh conditions and others because of their sense of frustration and despair that are subject to surrender from the absurdity of life that is alienating, sinful or suicidal.
