Gérard Genette’s theory of transtextuality is a prominent approach in intertextual studies that examines the relationship between a hypotext (the source text) and a hypertext (the new text derived from the source). Ferdowsi’s Shahnameh holds a significant place in Persian literature and has been frequently analyzed through the lens of transtextuality. It maintains intertextual connections with older texts, such as Avestan and Pahlavi works, and has served as a hypotext for many subsequent artistic creations, including miniatures. This article investigates the transtextual relationships in the narrative of Afrasiab’s death in Shahnameh and addresses the following questions: What are the key narrative elements of Afrasiab’s death in Shahnameh? What similarities and differences exist between Shahnameh and other texts on this subject? How are these older texts used as hypotexts in Shahnameh? To what extent are the miniatures depicting Afrasiab’s death influenced by Shahnameh? The findings reveal that ancient Iranian texts serve as vital hypotexts for Shahnameh, and itself has had a substantial influence as a hypotext on the creation of various miniatures related to Afrasiab’s death.
