	Aims By the end of the course, students will be able to: explain the concepts of intertextuality and intermediality in their own words, using valid examples; use the concepts of intertextuality and intermediality in an analysis of cultural practice; discuss and substantiate their analysis of cultural practice. Content This course explores the way literature and the performing arts create networks of meaning in twenty-first century society. By using the twin concepts of intertextuality and intermediality, we will analyse everyday performances of literature, music, and theatre and the way in which these performances refer to other cultural objects and narratives. The course will start out by exploring theories of intertextuality and intermediality and their use in academic research. We will use the theories and methods discussed in class to analyse a number of cases of intertextuality and intermediality from the nineteenth to the twenty-first century together. In doing so, students will become familiar with the most important methodological approaches in the field. In the second half of the course, students will set up and write a piece of research of their own, in which they analyse a case of intertextuality or intermediality, using the theories and methods we have discussed in class.
