2 types of facts:
- when the predictability, which you make, is confirmed, supported by the whole book (“To rent”)
- the title may be in conflict, which is the development of the plot
Functions of the title:
The title may be connected with the body of the text not only emotionally, or themantically, but linguistically (the repetition of the w-ds from the title in the text).
Very often the m-ng of the title is disiphered by the epigraph. Epigraphs clear up the idea of the text and prompt the author’s message. It presents an independant text, sometimes a proverb, sometimes a quotation. It directly refers the reader to the pretext. Sometimes it creates the ironic effect.
Intertexuality.
Any text exists in the history of culture and it’s a link in the culture. Any good text is short through the reminiesences, etc.
Int-ty is a term used to refer to allusions, quatations and reminiesences in order to suggest, how author’s acho and imploy elements of other text in their own works.
The term “int-ty” comes from latin “intertexta”. In modern linguistics, it was introduced by J.Kristeva to create a theory of the text as a network of sign systems, situated in relation to other systems in culture.
The foundation of int-ty theory was layed by
Bahtin. He wrote about a dialogue existing b/w the writer and the reader and the contemporary or earlier culture. He wrote: “There’s no first or last w-ds and ther’s no border dialogical context...”. Although Bahtin first published in 1919 for a variety of reasons. It is ever the last 20 or 30 years, that he has come to be recognized in modern linguistics.
There are dif. discriptions of int-ty:
Ind-ty is the function of several texts
Any text is quoted and quotable
Ind-ty is a conflict b/w the text and intertext
Int-ty is a purmutation of text.
A text is available only through the process of reading. It is enriched by all the other texts, which the reader brings into it. A delicate allusion to a work unknown to the reader may go unnoticed. On the other hand, the reader’s experience unknown to the author may lead to a fresh interpretation.
Speaking about dif. types of int-ty, Genette gives the following classification of it:
int-ty: allusions, quatations, playgerism (плагеат)
paratexuality: the ulation b/w the body of the text and its titles, epigraphs, notes, prefices, etc.
metatexuality: the relation b/w a commentary and its objects
architexuality: the interrelation of types of discourses, literary genres, manner of writing
intratexuality: the relationships within the works of a single writer
Besides the ability to express maximal of m-ng in a minimum of space and time, int-ty conveys, what can’t be conveyed otherwise: it allows to regard the vents, the char-rers in the light of previous culture, history giving a new scope to it. It gives a new perspective to the text, takes the facts described out and beyond the borders of the text.
