Abstract

The aim of this paper is to analyze the literary phenomenon of cento from the perspective of intertextuality. Its imitative nature allows us to define it in relation to the different types of textual quotation, that is, allusion, quotation itself and plagiarism, taking into account the implications of transcribing a given text to a new one. At the same time, we will consider it in the context of the notion of imitatio in Antiquity, pointing out the difficulties of recognizing clear boundaries between the different intertextual procedures.

Summary

Introduction

El propósito de este artículo es analizar el fenómeno literario del centón desde la perspectiva de la intertextualidad. De la lectura, tornándola “dialettica e movimentata.”[8] Toma de la imitación su carácter de transplante pero en una medida mucho más reducida y compleja, pues la modificación del material ajeno en el que se basa implica una reformulación y refuncionalización tales que el reconocimiento de la palabra ajena en el nuevo texto es a menudo imperceptible.
