| description | Intertextual elements contribute to increasing the depth of meaning in
literary texts through their associations with present and past texts
produced by different authors in the literary world. In Gérard
Genette’s terms, they bring together a palimpsest writing, entailing
references that are either highlighted or unwittingly removed from
literary texts. This study aims to demonstrate how Genette’s concept
of intertextuality is reflected in Pelin Batu’s self-translated poems with
examples from The Book of Winds / Rüzgarlar Kitabı (2009), The Divan of
Lost Things / Kayıp Şeyler Divanı (2015) and It All Began with a Story / Her
Şey Bir Hikaye ile Başladı (2018). This study comprises three parts. The
first part discusses Genette’s approach to intertextuality in depth,
while the second part focuses on the debates regarding translation,
self-translation, and intertextuality in translation studies. The third
part tries to show how intertextuality has turned into a poetic rewriting
strategy in Pelin Batu’s aforementioned works. In conclusion, it has
been determined that Pelin Batu, as a Turkish poet, enriches her poems
through intertextuality as a rewriting strategy with quotations,
allusions and borrowing from various figures of literature, visual arts,
art history, philosophy, and science. |
