Intertextuality, Hegel and Matrix

Summary/Abstract: Intertextuality is a concept that takes its origin from Bakhtin’s dialogicsm. According to Bakhtin, every meaning is full of answers, and the person who speaks is never the first person to talk about the subject. This approach asserts that every judgment that have been put forward about the world is open-ended and every claim is dialogic in its nature. Kristeva used Bakhtin’s concept of intertextuality, by adhering to his text-centered approach but ignoring the emphasis on historicity. In terms of Kristeva every text is a mosaic of citations. As a result of, the meaning of the text itself is an open-ended meaning that is conveyed from other texts to it. In terms of cinema, this concept is very convenient in terms of theoretical reading. Indeed, each film is full of references to other films, and perhaps it derives its own value from legacy of cinema. As a movie that influences the course of cinema, the Matrix has many such references like Baudrillard’s idea of supremacy, Plato’s Cave Allegory, Cartesian thinking and contemporary neuroscience.
