Intertextuality theory is a modern text theory formed and developed on the basis of western structuralism.It was first put forward by the semiotician Julia christiva in CI,dialogue and novel,and has been concerned by scholars all over the world since then,such as Roland Barthes,Gerard Genette,Jacques Derrida and so on.They express the theory of intertextuality in different forms and interpret it from many aspects.In the 1980 s,this theory was introduced into our country and was warmly praised by many critics.Domestic theorists such as Tong Ming,Zhao Weirong,Li Yuping and Wang Jin accepted and used this theory earlier and explored its localization.The first chapter is the "Representation of Characters".The intertextuality of characters is a major feature of Shen Congwen’s novels.It is the most concentrated and prominent image of girls and urban men in Western Hunan.The significance of intertextuality research is to find differences from similar texts,and then find the same in differences.The characters in Shen Congwen’s works have the characteristics of typology.Therefore,the study of the internal laws of the characters in Shen Congwen’s works will help us grasp the techniques of Shen Congwen’s characterization as a whole.The second chapter is "Image Repetition".The construction of images is an element that can reflect the author’s ideological and emotional tendency in a novel(article)and is one of the important means of narration in Shen Congwen’s novels,showing the important features of text intertextuality.The mill,cave and Xiangxi world under Shen Congwen’s pen impress readers deeply.These images show their meanings and exist on each other.They have become the label of Shen Congwen’s creation,which brings new elements to the multi-text dialogue of the novel.The third chapter is " Intertextuality of Story Plot ".From the macro level of the novel,the plot elements in Shen Congwen’s creation contain the possibility of taking "influence" as the core element.The structure of the characters and the design of the story show the mutual reflection of the text dialogue.Chapter four "Aesthetic Evaluation of Intertextuality In Shen Congwen’s Novels".The influence of intertextuality on Shen Congwen’s novel creation has two sides.The positive aspect is that it can make the author’s novel creation an organic whole,make the internal elements contact with each other and set off each other,and finally explain each other.The negative aspect is the limitation of the creation art and the limitation of the evaluation of the author.Because of the existence of the creation label,when we evaluate an author,we tend to incline to the more general characteristics,and ignore some original expressions of the author.Conclusion.By studying the intertextuality of Shen Congwen’s novels,we can carefully analyze the author’s creative intention and the mutual interpretation between texts on the basis of grasping the connotation of his works,thus further broadening the literary research field of Shen Congwen’s novels.
