Cultural Intertextuality

Cultural intertextuality refers to the way cultural references, symbols, and ideas connect and influence each other across different works and contexts. It’s like a conversation where movies, music, literature, and traditions reference each other, creating layers of meaning. These connections help us understand new works by relating them to familiar cultural touchstones. Essentially, cultural intertextuality recognizes that our cultural experiences are interconnected, shaping how we interpret and find significance in various forms of art and communication.
