Abstract
Intertextuality is the connection between a text with the previous and contemporary texts. Specifically, the reader should find the connection between the texts based on his or her enlightenment. According to intertextuality, a text cannot be produced without the reflection of the earlier texts. Moreover, this study is an attempt to display the connection and likeness of Shakespeare’s play, The Merchant of Venice, in Bakhtiyar Ali’s novel, the Mansion of the Sad Birds. Precisely, we can see Shakespeare's play in many scenes and dialogues of Bakhtiyar’s novel. Nevertheless, he has inventively made use of them to augment his novel.
