Abstract

The present study is a reading of the poem "Joseph's Shirts" by the Lebanese poet (Shawqi Bazi') from the collection "All My Glory is that I Tried", and deals with the semantic structures and implicit cultural patterns that Bazi' included heavily in the poetic discourse.

The first is based on the concepts of approach and intertextuality, while the second is based on three topics: the voice of the poet and his role in directing Joseph’s relationship with the other (his brothers), the voice of Joseph's self and its relationship with the other (the woman is Zulekha), and the poet’s voice and his role in directing the relationship of the other (Joseph’s father) with the self, Joseph.
