QURANICINTERTEXTUALITY IN JARIR POETRY

Abstract

Intertextuality is a theory that deals with intertextual relationships and causes the creation of new text and treats any literary text as the absorption and transformation of the past or concurrent texts at the same time, in 60th decade of AD twentieth century, the Bulgarian-born French critic Julia Kristeva presented a theory that were highly regarded by critics. Quran, as a Religious Text, has always been a source adapted for literature texts. This study seeks to explain and describe Quranicintertextuality in Jarir poetry, famous poet, by an analytic-descriptive method in Umayyad era. The conclusion of this study is that the rich culture of Quran has affected the poet in 2 levels of word and meaning, and he managed to use the words of the Qur'an in his poems to give them sanctity and to give his objects of praise some Quranic attributes such as leadership, patience and steadfastness in the faith or to deny some attributes of his satire.
