Abstract
The English version of this paper can be found at: http://ssrn.com/abstract=1581424 This paper discusses, as one among a wide range of pragmatic constraints on literature, the intertextual relationship between a work and the tradition it belongs to and which helps define it. It is argued that intertextual signals do not have to be overt even when deliberate, and that deliberate signals do not exhaust a work’s intertextuality (since, for one thing, it will itself give rise to new links). The theory is exemplified with an analysis of two poems by Stephen Crane.
