The Hero’s Journey: The Story From How To Read Literature Like a Professor by Foster: Ch. 5 “Now, Where Have I Seen Her Before?” There is no such thing as a wholly original work of literature—stories grow out of other stories, poems out of other poems. There is only one story—of humanity and human nature, endelssly repeated

The Hero’s Journey: Intertexuality From How To Read Literature Like a Professor by Foster: Ch. 5 “Now, Where Have I Seen Her Before?” “Intertextuality”—recognizing the connections between one story and another deepens our appreciation and experience, brings multiple layers of meaning to the text, which we may not be conscious of. The more consciously aware we are, the more alive the text becomes to us. If you don’t recognize the correspondences, it’s ok. If a story is no good, being based on Hamlet won’t save it.
