Abstract
|
The research is going to show that there are textual correspondences among Keats’ selected works. Such an analysis has rarely been done before. Consequently, it highlights the importance and significance of working on this project. Keats’ impersonality in writing leaves the text open and fluid allowing his writing to be readily retranslated and adapted. Each individual reader, therefore, may find some different resonances within the narrative. Drawing on Bakhtin’s views on dialogue and ambivalence, Kristeva maintains in her essay "Word, Dialogue, and Novel", that each text maybe taken as the absorption and transformation of another. The intertextual approach is one applicable procedure for indicating the connection of Keats’ works to the previous imaginary or non-imaginary works and occurrences.
