What is it about?

Intertextuality refers to the quality that connects the author and the reader within a single text or, more broadly, the relationship between texts. This study considered the author’s implicit textual intention and the expected effect on the text reader to analyze intertextuality. This study’s subject was the news text from the Russian news program Vesti Nedeli.

Why is it important?

The use of intertextuality in news text can be a powerful tool for achieving communication purposes.

Perspectives

I hope this article makes what people might think is a boring, slightly abstract area like pragmatics and discourse, kind of interesting and maybe even exciting. More than anything else, and if nothing else, I hope you find this article thought-provoking.
