UALITY
• Intertextuality or intertext is one method of text
development that enables the author to make another
text based on another text. It happens when some
properties of an original text are incorporated in the text
that is created by another author.

• UALITY
One good reason why it occurs is perhaps the
second writer is greatly affected or influenced by
the first writer leading to a combination of
imitation and creation.
 INTERTEXT DEFINED
Intertext or intertextuality is technically defined as a process of text
development that merges two more processes such as imitation and
creation in doing a text. It involves imitation because the author, as
highly influenced by another author comes up with his version of the
text consciously or unconsciously incorporating the style and other
characteristics of the text done by that author.
 Elaboration on Intertextuality

Intertextuality has its roots in the work of a Swiss linguist

Ferdinand de Saussure (1857-1913). Meanwhile, the term
itself was first used by Bulgarian-French philosopher and
psychoanalyst Julia Kristeva in the 1960s.
Intertextuality is said to take place using four specific
methods namely: retelling, pastiche, quotation, and
allusion.

use it for your online class and would be very helpful in the new
