Lecture

INTERTEXTUALITY is...

A text's meaning is shaped by another text.

It is about the interrelationship between related works or similar works of literature that mirror and influence how the audience interpret the text.

It also refers to the author's borrowing and modification of a prior text or to a reader's referencing of one text in reading another.

Technically speaking, intertextuality is a combination of a Latin prefix Inter which means "between", "among", "in the midst of", "mutually", "together", and "reciprocally" and Textuality which refers to all attributes that determine the communicative content under analysis as an object of study. It is not a literary or rhetorical device, but rather a fact about literary texts - the fact that they are all intimately interconnected. This is applicable to all texts such as, works of philosophy, novels, films, newspaper articles, songs, and the like. In order to further understand intertextuality, it's important to understand the broad definition of the word "text" itself. Each text is greatly affected by all the texts that came before it, since those texts have influenced the author's thinking and exquisite choices. Remember that every text, on its broadest sense is intertextual.

Julia Kristeva was the inventor of the term "intertextuality." She was influenced by both Ferdinand de Saussure and Mikhail Bakhtinian through their models and attempts to combine their major theories toward the origin of language.

Types of Intertextuality

a. Deliberate Intertextuality forging a relationship between the old text and the new one.

b. Latent Intertextuality pertains to everything you've ever seen or read that sticks somewhere in your memory and affects your understanding of the world which contribute to building your specific worldview which, in turn, determines how you write or create art.

Intertextual Figures

Allusion - a figure of speech where an object from unrelated context is referred to covertly or indirectly with another. It is left to the audience to do or make the direct connection. Where the connection is directly and explicitly stated by the author, it is instead usually termed a reference.

Ex. You don't have to be William Shakespeare to write poetry. (William Shakespeare was used here to explain ones prowess in writing poetry.)

Quotation- is a written form of the oral echo. It can be in tagged and untagged form. It can also be direct and indirect.

Ex. According to violin player Itzhak Perlman, "The most important thing to do is really listen."

Calque - is a loanword from the French noun calque which means tracing; imitation; close copy. It means to borrow a word or phrase from another language while translating its components, so as to create a new lexeme in the target language.

Plagiarism - When using intertextuality, it is usually a small excerpt of a hypotext that assists in the understanding of the new hypertext's original themes, characters or contexts. While this does seem to include intertextuality, the intention and purpose of using of another's work, this is now what allows intertextuality to be excluded from this definition.

Translation-means to transfer in a stable meaning. It is the process of translating words or text from one language into another.

Pastiche- imitates the style or character of the work of one or more other artists.

Parody-any cultural practice which provides a relatively polemical or comical allusive imitation of another cultural production or practice

Story/Reporting

The Mysterious Treasure Map

Once upon a time there is a hated love in a small town called Oakville.(oxymoron), where they found a huge and muddy cave (visual) there lived a group of adventurous friend s named Alex, Emma, and Max. One hot sunny day (thermal), they stumbled upon an old, dusty rough(tactile) book with a nostalgic smell (olfactory) in the attic of their grandmother's house. The book contained a mysterious treasure map! Excitedly, the friends gathered around the map and started deciphering the clues as if there were no tomorrow (simile). The first clue led them to the town's historic library. As they entered, they were greeted by lively dancing books (personification) together with Mrs. Jenkins, who had been waiting for them.

"Welcome, young explorers!" Mrs. Jenkins said as fiercely as a lion, with a smile on her face. (simile) "To find the next clue, you must just stare at the word hunt, now hurry up and keep moving!!(irony) "In cracking the first code of the encrypted message, they embarked on a journey to solve a word hunt, unraveling the secrets hidden within the entire document. (Synecdoche). Look for the following vocabulary words hidden in these book titles: adventure, quest, treasure, discovery, and mystery.

The friends eagerly scanned the universe, searching for the hidden words. (hyperbole) After a few minutes, they found all the books and arranged them in the correct order. Mrs. Jenkins was impressed by their determination and handed them the next clue.

The second clue took them to the towns park, where they had to complete a vocabulary challenge. They had to find objects in the park that matched the given vocabulary words: explore, ancient, valuable, uncover, and enigma. Each time they found an object, they had to use it in a sentence to demonstrate its meaning. As the friends completed the things they needed to deal with (euphemism), they felt their vocabulary skills growing stronger. They thanked Mirs Jenkins for her guidance and eagerly followed the next clue.

The third clue led them to took a little stroll deep into the forest (understatement), where they had to solve a riddle using vocabulary words. The riddle went like this: "I am a hidden treasure, buried in the ground, unearth me carefully, for I am quite profundity ancient markings and a gleam so bright, I hold the secrets of the past, shining in the light. What am 17 After some brainstorming, the friends realized that the answer was an artifact. They dug in the indicated spot and found a small, ancient artifact that shimmered in the sunlight.

Excitedly, they returned to their grandmother's house, in an angel in disguise, where they discovered a hidden compartment in the attic. (Metaphor). Inside, they found a chest filled with gold coins, precious gems, and a note that read, Your victory echoes through the halls of the challenges. (Metonymy) together with another note saying "Congratulations, brave adventurers! You have successfully completed the word hunt and found the treasure. Use your newfound vocabulary skills to continue exploring the world!" and they give themselves a clap of hands for each other's victory(auditory). The friends celebrated their victory, they prepared a juicy medium-rare steak with a sweet and spicy seasoning (gustatory), knowing that their vocabulary journey had just begun. They thanked each other for their teamwork and promised to embark on more exciting adventures together

Own story

Once upon a time in the heart of the enchanted forest, there stood a towering-visual tree, Its branches reaching in towardbthe heavens-vibrant heus painting the sky like fingers yearning to touch the stars.the leaves whispher secrets to each other in the-auditory gentle breeze creating a shymphony of nature's melody-oxymoron that danced through the air.

Beneath the tree's majestic conopyia soft carpet of mass- tactile welkomed weary thevelers, its plush texture like a comforting embrace for tired feet. The forest floor exuded warmth radiating a gentle heat-thermal that enveloped everything in its embrace

The air was alive with the scent of pine and earth, mingling with the Sweet aroma of wildflowers-olfactory that bloomed nearby the fragrances hung heavy in the air, intoxicating the sense with its heady perfume.

In the distance that faint sound of a treiling stream could be heard, it's gentle bobbling like music to the ears, the water flowed freely, its cool touch Refreshing to the skin-simile as it wound its way through the Forest.

Suddenly, a rustling in the bushes-synecdoche broke the peaceful serenity of the forest. A mischiovous fox emerged from the underbrush, its fiery for glowing in the Fading light with a flick of its tail, it darted off into the night, disappearing into the shadows wink and a guin.

As the stars began to twinkle overhead, the Forest settled into a bushed stainless-understatement its secrets hidden beneath the look of deekness. And so the enchanted Forest sleph wrapped in the quiet embrace of the night, dreaming of adventures yet to come.

POEM

Ran drops drip drop on my shoes

Not me I think I shall not hide

Mine may be the smallest

The old oak spoke of hope-assonnance

Slithery, sledery, scaly old snake-alliteration

white like dunes of sand on beaches-simile

I found myself no longer living-consonance

But mig heated was still beating-consonance

Bitter echoes of coffee, morning's ombrace-gustatory

Rusting leaves compose a gentle song-auditory

Painting a celestial canvas, pure and bright - visual

Embrace of sunlight, a warm affair these-thermal

Eternal cadence, a dance complete - Reppitation

Each twinkling light a passibility -methaphor

Trees with otures embracing the sky -personification

Tell tales of the wind as it passed by-personification
