INTERTEXTUALITY
SEMINAR
Recap: intertextuality
Intertextuality is pervasive and inescapable
Individual texts always refer to each other:
together, they constitute an intertext
Intertextuality is ideological in its representations
and discourses
Intertexts are situated in a social, cultural and
political context
Ideological representations:
Colonialism
Orientalism:
us and them
a style of thought
a body of theory and practice
a system of knowledge and representation
a relationship of domination
politics and institutions
Task 1: Orientalist
representations
The Sherlock Holmes intertext includes
various colonialist and orientalist
representations. Sherlock (2010)
tackles some of these ideological
representations.
