"The Red Manes Mare" is a novel about the life of the Arabic famous poet, Imru'al-Qais, which is written in Persian. This research was done using a descriptive-analytical method and its main purpose was to explain the types of text relations based on Gérard Genette’s theory of transtextuality. The results show that the novel of "the Red Manes Mare" is an example of transtextual texts that has consciously linked with different ranges of Arabic texts and this link in line with creating a semantic system in these texts consisted of relations of intertextuality, hypertextuality, archittxtuality and paratextuality in Gérard Genette's theory. Base on intertexutality, it was concluded that some historical texts which were somehow related to Imru'al-Qais' life have been rewritten in the novel. Quantitative and pragmatic transformation of this work shows that there are some changes in parts of events and main contexts of the story than hypertexts. On the other hand, the interaction of types of literature is one of the most important features of the novel style. The novel also contains a final note with paratextual features.

Naguib Mahfouz in Shahr al-‘Asal and Abu Turab Khosravi in Hozour describe the situation of a couple who after moving to their new house, notice that their residence has been occupied by some strangers. The goal of this paper is to offer a description and a comparative study of these two works based on the American school of comparative literature.
The results of the study suggest that the two authors have adopted an identical approach in the prelude of the story. Also, both of these Arabic and Persian stories are composed of three main characters, namely a young couple and a stranger usurping their house. "House" in both stories plays a key role, which has been questioned by the connotative meaning of home as a shelter or safe place for man. Also, both works are corresponding in terms of using the Anachronism technique, i.e., in addition to the flash back technique, the technique of mingling past and present times has been adopted in both works. Moreover, the analysis of both stories in terms of similarity of functions revealed that out of thirty-one functions of Propp, there are eleven overlapping functions in both stories in a similar sequence. The sequence of plot functions of both works is indicative of a consistent internal pattern, which can be illustrated through the relevant codes of each function as such : (B, H, C, A, δ, γ, λ, φ, ε, β, α )
