Abstract
Meditation on the works and themes of poetry in the mystical genre shows that poets have changed the plot structure of previous anecdotes in order to create and convey a new message by relying on intertextual similarities. Examination of a wide range of original anecdotes in this genre reveals that poets have sought to create semantic-moral meanings, themes, and mystical atmosphere by changing the plot of narratives. In view of that, the present study, conducted by adopting a descriptive-analytical research method and using library resources, aims to investigate the status of narrative, plot, and intertextuality in some original poetic anecdotes in the mystical genre, and to create new structure, principles, and didactic meanings in the subsequent anecdotes. The findings show that the creators of the subsequent (new) narratives have made changes in the plot of the subsequent narrative in the mystical genre with the aim of changing the meaning, and this change has been done in three ways: “extending or reducing the plot”, “adding or reducing episodes to the narrative”, and “adding mystical meaning to the actions of actors by an open-ended trick”.
