CONTEXT OF TEXT DEVELOPMENT

Intertextuality refers to the relationship between texts and how


they reference or influence one another. This concept, introduced
by literary theorist Julia Kristeva in the 1960s, suggests that no text
exists in isolation; rather, every text is shaped by and connected to
other texts through various forms of allusion, quotation, parody,
and other forms of reference. Intertextuality highlights the idea
that meaning is created through the interplay of texts, and readers
bring their own experiences and knowledge of other texts to their
understanding of a new one.
Intertext refers to the shaping of the text meaning by referencing
or calling to mind other texts as it aims to add meaning to the
current text.
In intertextuality, the readers get to understand the piece through
parallel plot, characters, premise, etc with the wealth of the prior
knowledge, experience, and research.
Types of Intertextuality
1. Quotation - it is the actual insertion of a text within another
2. Travesty - is a practice of imitation an original text a) Pastiche -
rewriting of some ‘noble’ text as a new text that retains the
fundamental content but presents it in another style in order to
‘debase’ it. b) Parody - retaining the stylistic properties of the
original text while diverting its subject

replaced by an instrumental melodic line.
8. Instrumental remix: a remix of the original song from which the
leading voice has simply been removed.
Hypertextuality, on the other hand, is a concept that emerged with
the advent of digital media and refers to the way in which texts can
be interconnected through hyperlinks. In hypertextuality, a text (the
"hypertext") can link to other texts (the "hypotexts"), allowing
readers to navigate between them in a non-linear fashion. This
creates a dynamic reading experience where the reader can explore
various paths and connections, leading to a more interactive and
multifaceted understanding of the content.
Hypertext is characterized by external links embedded in a text by
the writer as it enables the reader to arrive at the intended
interpretation of the author.
In online medium, hypertexts are the embedded links; while in print
media, these are the commentaries or footnotes in the marg
