Abstract :
Allegory is an anecdote or a narrative consisting of ethical, religious, didactic, social, mystical, philosophical and even psychological concepts. There is also the other side of intertextuality in which the method of convergence contexts should be adopted through considering the effect of foregoing contexts and it’s influences on subsequent contexts. Current research is a qualitative study. Therefore, this is a descriptive-analytical study conducted based on library references with the aim of allegorical survey ofall the elements and narratives of Imam Khomeini’s poem which relies upon Quranic intertextuality. Imam Khomeini was a divine mystical character. He also has had a perfect familiarity to God’s utterances with divine providence. Accordingly, the core and frame of his poems are based on this fact. Moreover, his poem comprises ethical and reflective tips leading to firmness and stability in the poetry. In this survey, due to the necessity of research, attempts have been made to address Quranic elements and tales which are allegorically utilized in Imam Khomeini’s poetry. Although such elements and tales possess real nature in principle, they carry a second meaning when placed in allegorical forms.
