Religious Intertextuality in Quran, the Bible, and the Torah Regarding the Concept of Resistance in the Poetry of Mahmoud Darvish and Qisar Aminpour

Intertextuality is a theory that connects old and new texts, and adds to the richness of literary works. Therefore, through a descriptive-analytical method, and with emphasis on Julia Christova’s theory, this study aims to conceptually review the effect of religious intertextuality in resistance poetry of Mahmoud Darvish, the Palestinian poet, and Qisar Aminpour, the Iranian poet. Intertextuality involves many areas; however, since these poets have conceived that Quran and other divine books and religious men are the main sources for man’s freedom, with the help of religious intertextuality, they have invited people to fight against enemy. Darvish has benefited from Jewish and Christian sources mostly through parallel and general negation, and Aminpour has used the parallel and minute negation. Intertextuality in Darvish poems has more specificity than in those of Aminpour. Using religious intertextuality in three areas of Islam, Christianity, and Jewism represents the two poet’s interaction with other religions, and this is something that the world needs. The religious integration mentioned by Darvish and Aminpour is an issue in the light of which governments could leave religious conflicts and reach a kind of peaceful coexistence.
