The present study, with an intertextual approach and relying on Gerard Genette’s theoretical framework, examines the relationship between ancient Persian texts and contemporary stories in two short stories by Rasoul Parvizi (The Oppressed Goldsmith and The Seven Days of the Week) from his landmark story collection, The Patched Trousers. The research was conducted using an analytical-descriptive method and its aim was to explain the types and functions of intertextual relationships in these two stories. The findings show that Parvizi, with full knowledge of classical literature, especially the works of Rumi, Hafez, and Saadi, creates a complex and meaningful network of references in his prose. Accordingly, explicit intertextuality (including direct quotation of verses, use of ancient words and combinations, and application of well-established allusions and proverbs) is the most frequently used type of relationship in his works. Next in order is implicit intertextuality, in which humorous antithesis, especially in the retelling of Rumi’s story “The Maid and the King” in the form of “The Oppressed Goldsmith”, is most evident. This research concludes that through these intertextual techniques, Parvizi not only adds to the linguistic richness and semantic depth of his stories, but also provides the possibility of a new reading of classical texts by establishing a creative dialogue between tradition and modernity.
