Abstract
Today, the concept of criticism, both from its theoretical and practical aspects, is one of the most important topics studied in various fields of human sciences. In the meantime, historical criticism and literary criticism have the most affinities and have been exposed to the most attentions and controversies. In fact, the common link that has brought these two areas of criticism so close is the centrality of "text" in both areas. Historical texts and literary texts have a lot in common in terms of their "textuality". And from this point of view, historical criticism and literary criticism, which are actually criticism of the historical text and criticism of the literary text, also have these aspects in common. Therefore, practical methods in both historical and literary criticism are based on common principles and foundations. These principles and foundations have appeared in the field of historical criticism in the form of interpretivism and in the field of literary criticism mainly in the form of new historicism. With this description, in this research, the attempt is made to analyze and examine the two areas of literary criticism and historical criticism with an analytical-comparative method and by relying and emphasizing on interpretivism and new historicism.
Key words: historical criticism, literary criticism, interpretivism, new historicism, discourse.
