Chapter Six: Chapter Six: Text, Intertext, Hypertext? -- .This book is an exploration of the viability of applying the post structuralist theory of intertextuality to early modern texts. It suggests that a return to a more theorised understanding of intertextuality, as that outlined by Julia Kristeva and Roland Barthes, is more productive than an interpretation which merely identifies 'source' texts. The book analyses several key early modern texts through this lens, arguing that the period's conscious focus on and prioritisation of the creative imitation of classical and contemporary European texts makes it a particularly fertile era for intertextual reading. This analysis includes discussion of early modern creative writers' utilisation of classical mythology, allegory, folklore, parody, and satire, in works by William Shakespeare, Sir Francis Bacon, John Milton, George Peele, Thomas Lodge, Christopher Marlowe, Francis Beaumont, and Ben Jonson, and foregrounds how meaning is created and conveyed by the interplay of texts and the movement between narrative systems. This book will be of interest to undergraduate and postgraduate students of early modern literature, as well as early modern scholars.Early Modern Literature in History,2634-5927European literatureRenaissance, 1450-1600LiteratureHistory and criticismLiteraturePhilosophyEarly Modern and Renaissance LiteratureLiterary HistoryLiterary TheoryEuropean literatureLiteratureHistory and criticism.LiteraturePhilosophy.Early Modern and Renaissance Literature.Literary History.Literary Theory.809809Carter Sarah1978-801164MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910485004703321Early Modern Intertextuality1898857UNINA
