The subject of the present study is to analyze of the discursive logic of the author-narratorʼs continuous metatexts in the Shazdeh Hamam by Papoli Yazdi(1327- ) based on the metatextuality of the Genette(1930-2018). Shazdeh Hamam is the autobiography of Mohammad Hossein Papoli Yazdi, five volumes of which have been published so far and the first volume has been reprinted 34 times up to now, which shows the good popularity of this book. Part of this popularity in addition to the author-narratorʼs style prose, honesty, and frankness in revealing the facts, is related to its continuous metatexts; because the author, once in the role of narrator, recounts the events of his life and another time, in the role of a researcher, analyzes them. This issue turns the author-narrator an impartial narrator to an intervening narrator. The present study intends to analyze the discursive logic of continuous metatexts in the first volume of the book Shazdeh Hamam using descriptive–analytical method and the theory of Genette metatextuality. The reason to choose the first volume is the distance between the writing and the occurrence of events in which the existence of metatexts and their discursive logic are illustrated vividly. Also, the model of Theo Van Leeuwenʼs legitimation which offers four strategies for accreditation, moral evaluation, rationalization, and myth-making, has been used in this article. The result shows that achieving the desired situation forms the core of the author-narrator discourse; a discourse that is based on the critique of the current situation. This criticism which is the product of the author’s knowledge, practical experience, his expertise, education and teaching in prestigious European universities, has made him to use metatexts in explaining the cause, interpretation, enlightenment, solution presentation, and the cases like this.

The present research is an analysis of Papoli Yazdi’s utopian discourse in “Shazdeh Hamam” based on the discursive theory of Laclau and Mouffe. The sample of the study consists of the first three volumes of Papoli Yazdi’s five-volume book, Shazdeh Hamam, the first and second volumes of which have been reprinted 34 times and the third volume 14 times so far. The reason for choosing this topic is the metatextual discourses of this work, which makes it distinct from similar works. Additionally, the reason for choosing Laclau and Mouffe’s theory is its effectiveness for analyzing Papoli Yazdi’s discourse. The research method is descriptive-analytical. The data was analyzed based on content analysis and using Laclau and Mouffeʼs discourse theory. Based on this theory, the present study aims to answer the following question: How is the articulation of concepts and the process of identifying the authorʼs idealistic discourse and its relationship with the dominant discourse? The results indicate that according to this theory, the authorʼs modernist discourse is formed in contrast to the dominant traditionalist discourse, and places “modernity and progress” as an empty point in place of the nodal point. It also articulates the points of culture and women’s rights around the nodal point and gives each one a new identity and meaning. In the end, the author encourages human beings as agents to act for the realization of their ideal society.
