Abstract
Otherness is one of the methods of accessing hidden interests beyond the literary texts which through literary discourse analysis can be in direct relation to political science and sociology. Critical discourse analysis believes that each text is shaped by political and ideological approaches and the relationship between political issues and texts is not an accidental one. Laclauand Mouffe believe that in every discourse one can use two concepts of logic of equality and logic of difference to explain the relations of otherness present in literary texts. That is, in every discourse, a positive pole is foregrounded as“we”or ours, and on the opposite pole the negative side is introduced as“they”or “others”. Foregrounding and backgrounding are used in texts and discourse through language functions. Investigatingthis method in some of Khayyam's Quatrains we will find out why Khayyam has pursued a kind of polarization in his quatrains and also will realize how Khayyam, along with his philosophical views expressed in his Quatrains, has tried to suggest political and critical motives through his discourse.

Abstract
Macro-construction refers to the basic structure that explains and interprets the system and organization of a text or discourse. In the study of the macro-construction of Nima’s quatrains, which is based on the discourse and text construction plan of Lotfollah Yarmohammadi about Khayyam’s quatrains and is grounded on three constructs of “description”, “recommendation” and “explanation”; three more constructs of “wish”, “regret” and “surprise” are also recognizable. According to this plan, Nima’s quatrains can be divided into three groups of one-construct, two-construct, and three-construct quatrains. The one-construct quatrains account for more than half of all Nima’s quatrains. The main and pivotal construct in Nima’s quatrains is the description construct, which has the highest frequency, in which Nima describes his condition, especially his emotional condition through romantic conversations with his beloved one. Moreover, the descriptions of nature, man, the world, and other general categories are other aspects of the description construct in Nima’s quatrains. Since in the communication system of Nima’s quatrains, the sender is in the center and focus, the discourse of his quatrains is descriptive. In these poems, Nima’s perspective on categories such as love, man, and the world is often a view based on traditional attitude and just in the quatrains in which he describes nature, the signs of his novel insight are visible.
