Abstract:

According to Genette’s theory Shahnameh is a hypotext and its pictures and drawings are considered as hypertext.  Now this question arises that under what circumstances hypertexts of drawings are in accordance with hypotext of Shahnameh and in what circumstances they undergo transformation and change.  To answer these questions comparative and semiotic approach are applied to both Shahnameh and its drawings.  The tale of fire trial of Siavash which is the most popular and frequent scenes portrayed in the tradition of Persian paintings is chosen. 
The present article deals with the role of intertextual relationship between Shahnameh and its pictures in production of its paintings and the study seeks to examine and express how the narrative text had been transformed into a pictorial version.  The study deals with the following questions:  From the standpoint of intertextual relationship to what extent the painting of Siavash’s fire trial shows direct reference to the text?  To what extent the narrative in terms of images undergo changes or rather stay intact?  The research method is as follows:  First the narrative is studied in terms of interpreting the symbolism of the main elements, then comparative approach is applied to the image version of the narrative.  Finally employing Genette’s transtextuality theory, the paintings are analyzed from two perspectives to verify whether or not modifications had taken place in the process of transition of the theme from the text to the image.  The purpose of the article is to provide a practical example to express how the theory of transtextuality lends itself to the body of Persian art studies.
