Intertexuality is one of the branches of New literary Criticism which deals with the interaction and relationship between texts. It suggests that the new texts are interpreted in the light of previous literature and our attention to the absent texts and their interrelations for better understanding of the new text is necessary. Nahjol Balaghe is one of the religious texts that as a source of inspiration, many authors including Muslim and non-Muslim ones, have benefited from in order to increase the richness of their works. Joseph Hashem (-1937) is a Lebanese Christian poet. Though being committed to Christianity, he’s affected by Nahj Al Balaghe and has composed his "Alaviat" collections describing Imam Ali (AS). He’s also adorned themes of his work using beautiful words of Nahj Al Balaghe and Imam Ali. His poems indicates that he has applied three types of intertexuality including word-oriented, context-oriented and concept-oriented intertexuality from Nahjol Balaghe. Without the least modifications in vocabulary and meaning for the most part, the borrowing is consciously carried out.In the light of the significance of a Christian poet's borrowing from Muslims’ religious text, the present study is to explain different types, quantity and quality of intertexuality used in poems of Joseph Hashem.
