Description
Since Julia Kristeva coined the term in 1966, intertextuality has become one of the major fields of textual enquiry throughout the world. Offering both a series of contemporary attitudes towards the subject and a number of radical proposals for future research, this volume contains essays by American, British and Australian scholars, including Ross Chambers, John Frow and Michael Riffaterre. The introduction suggests that this new form of criticism should be seen in a cultural tradition dating back to Ancient Greece. Approaching the subject from perspectives as diverse as Marxism, psychoanalysis, sexual politics and the cinema, the book confirms intertextuality as a useful way of analyzing and responding to texts. Each essay examines one aspect of contemporary practice and proposes new ways forward for students and teachers.
