INTERTEXTUALITY IN POSTMODERN ENGLISH LITERATURE: A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF NARRATIVE STRATEGIES

Abstract

This article examines intertextuality as a fundamental characteristic of postmodern English literature through comparative analysis of narrative strategies employed by contemporary authors. The study analyzes how postmodern writers utilize intertextual references, literary allusions, and metafictional techniques to create multilayered narratives that challenge traditional literary conventions. The research results show that postmodern authors use intertextual strategies in three different ways to create meaning and to create dialogic relationships with literary tradition while they guide readers through active processes of interpretation.
