摘要

Often regarded as one crucial concept in the current of poststructrualistic thought,intertextuality is influential with regard to its application in discursive perspective and literary criticism.This paper argues that the notion should also be understood in the theoretical backdrop of how the concept of subject is constructed in the 1960s.Two critics are specifically mentioned in the discussion:Julia Kristeva’s psychoanalytic understanding of the subject in process that stresses the transpositions of signs in both textual and contextual meanings complicates the once delimited register of textuality,while Roland Barthes,with his claim of the demise of the author,appeals for a reevaluation of the conventional grasp of the idea of the writer and the reader,and their relations with the text.This paper will conclude with one of the most significant derivations of intertextuality—hypertextuality.Relevant to how modern subjects in the era of digitalization read and write,this latter concept materializes,in cyberspace,the documents of printed media,and substantially demonstrates the liquification of information on the Internet.
