The main goal of this research is the comparative study of themes influenced by women's discourse and the frequent archetypes of Roza Jamali and Ghadeh al-Samman's poetry. this researchBy using the approach of comparative content analysis, he has examined and criticized the prominent and archetypal examples of poetry of the two mentioned poets - which is the result of the introduction of modernism in contemporary poetry in Iranian and Arab societies. Considering that these two poets have many similarities in terms of using words and feminine linguistic elements, their poems have been comparatively analyzed from the aspect of frequent words.The findings showed that they are very similar in terms of female mentality and language and symbolic words, which are all based on the female imaginations of these two poets and have archetypal roots. In fact, both poets have a surreal mentality originating from the subconscious mind. The result of the research also showed that the symbolic language of these two poets is mostly derived from female discourse and refers to the female pronoun of the poet. Also, the female archetypal elements (life, immortality and death) in the poems of these poets have a special power and prominence, which Roza Jamali compares birth and life to the feminine word "earth" and Ghada al-Samman equates female immortality to herself. It is shown by "trees and forests".

This paper lays emphasis on the role of interdisciplinary and cultural studies in explaining comparative literature. Here, some issues are raised. First, literature is not limited to written texts and all types of written and non-written texts are possible. Second, we do not have a precise definition of comparative literature as a "discipline," that is, a system of study. Third, in addition to disciplinary studies, there is also discussion of interdisciplinary, multidisciplinary, interdisciplinary, postdisciplinary, and transdisciplinary studies. The debate is when and how can comparative literature become a cultural study? This paper tries to briefly point out some issues related to the connection between cultural studies, interdisciplinary, and comparative literature and explain the relationship between them. Hence, first the background is mentioned, and then the theoretical foundations of the discussion are explained. Different definitions of culture are also mentioned, and interdisciplinary discussions related to cultural studies and comparative literature are reviewed. An attempt is then made to review the interdisciplinary issues of comparative literature as a discipline. This paper is an introduction to the discussion of the relationship between comparative literature and other arts.

The category of adaptation as one of the branches of comparative literature is an attempt to create new texts based on the construction and content of previous texts.. Regardless of comparative literature, this topic communicates between literature as speech and writing and cinema, theater and painting as image with an intertextual view and attempts to discover the relationship in these areas. The sampling is based on the stories of Sheikh San'an, Bersiesa, Jorayge, Faust, Antoine Saint and Ta'iees.Primarily, the problem of this research is the study of the structure of stories and the discovery of similarity and difference of them; then, the processing of such stories is done based on Joly Sanders's theory of adaptation. The discovery of the transformation of characters and the different destiny of the hero is the result of the first problem and the discovery of the influence of ideology on the process of adaptation of the director, the painter and screenwriter, as well as the use of the elements of these stories on the basis of time and audience needs, is the result of the main problem of this research

Embedded in Remack’s theory of Comparative Literature and Art, this study is to disclose how the same concept has been represented in different forms in poetry, architecture and painting in that era. Findings show that joy on earth or entertainment-related reading, one of the main components of secularism, seems to be one main presupposition which makes the building blocks of thought and art in the era. In fact, Safavid poets, painters and architects have specifically drawn their own attention to joy/entertainment related aspects.

The love story of Majnun Layla, a legend that originated in the Middle East, has been translated and retold so often that it has become part of our global literary imagination. The story has been often received, compared, and studied in connection to Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet. This is despite the fact that there are fundamental differences between the two masterpieces, not to mention that the reception of Majnun Layla has exceeded literary reception, extending to other media. The first part of the article presents new social, political, religious, and literary interpretations of Majnun Layla. The second part of the article discusses the legend’s migration from seventh-century Arabic culture to its operatic adaption in Azerbaijan in 1908 (the first opera to be staged in an Islamic context), its first cinematic adaptation in Malay language in 1933 in Bangladesh, its first scholarly treatment in comparative literature in Iran in 1938-1940, and finally its most recent cinematic representation in the 2011 American movie Habibi. The article notes the most important achievements and elements that have been added to the story during the legend's cross-cultural and multidisciplinary journeys. The article concludes by proposing that the multiple-horizontal-circle model of comparative literature and post-colonial studies is more adequate for understanding texts like Majnun Layla than the conventional binary-vertical-linear model for research in Arabic and Middle Eastern comparative literature and world literature.

Communication is the process of knowingly or unconsciously, intentionally or unintentionally, through which feelings and opinions are expressed in the form of verbal or nonverbal messages. In nonverbal communication the element of speech is not involved in message transmission and in most cases the effect of nonverbal communication is higher than verbal. This type of relationship has different types that are sometimes played by different organs of the body. The use of body language, and especially the language of gaze, has always been important among humans. The importance of this in contemporary poetry is twofold. Has that been true in classical poetry? This article aims to explain the language of gaze in classical Persian and Arabic poetry based on the American school of comparative literature and using a descriptive-analytic method. The findings of this study indicate that whenever looking at a "talking" bed, the message is wisely conveyed while it contains a coded and sign language.
