Sometimes we wake up wanting to change the world or not?, And try to think of solutions, new ideas, transgressions that make us all better people, better educated and with a more comprehensive approach. In theory, we study literature in the background that we discover something new, cultured the world or propose new text types.
And we try, but when it finally began to think or write us to encounter the voice of our parents in the head, with the professor who said that in the class, with a good book to read the other day, or simply the journalist said yesterday's news. At this stage of the game it seems that everything we'd like to say is personified in the voice of someone else.
If we tried to find all those things that seem drawn from elsewhere may not end up ever. We can not believe that intertextuality is something that surrounds us as writers alone, is far more complex than that, for Bakhtin a "dialogue" between yesterday and today might say, a mind that involves previous ideas, appropriates them, used and reused again and again changing its name, its context and makes them involved in different issues, although it remains the same as two centuries ago. For the rest of the world we just name it globality to realize that it is present in everything around us.
From Homer Ulysses and Joyce, the figures of Don Quixote and Sancho Panza to Don Carnal embodying Doña Cuaresma, Bonsai Zambra and Flaubert's Madame Bovary, the Crucifixion by Salvador Dali and classical representations of the crucifixion, Romanticism and its return to the classic, Isabel Allende and Garcia Marquez, the misogyny of the fourteenth century and "Married with Children", the MC Donald's, Brit-pop chilensis, the "mackerel such as salmon "and pseudo-intellectuals who paraphrased Fernando Paulsen for having seen" tolerance Zero the weekend.
If we started looking REALLY what is the main source of what we see and say every day may not even reach our whole life to tell. But worse is to try to silence to find our own way of thinking without taking anyone else, because then all our voices silenced serious.
