Description:
Intertextuality is not a postmodern idea, as it existed long before postmodernism. However, intertextuality received new meanings, as the postmodern novel developed in a context of globalism and multiculturalism. Moreover, in such a globalized environment, the marginal becomes central, the unseen becomes visible, and the unheard becomes one of the strongest voices. Marina Warner’s novel Indigo is concerned with representing the absences in the Shakespearian play The Tempest, and also with twisting the stereotypical images that have been cemented and canonized over time.
