Article summary ( from DOAJ collection)

In the article "Intertextuality and Biblical studies: A Review" by Dr. Steve Moyise, the author analyses the way in which five "types" of intertextuality are used in biblical texts. He enumerates these types: intertextual echo, narrative intertextuality, exegetical intertextuality, dialogical intertextuality, and postmodern intertextuality. He considers that in spite of the fact that intertextuality is a very productive and creative conception, it has a few drawbacks. The author states that it would be better if scholars clarified what type of intertextuality they had used or specified the theorist they were depending on while doing their research. Dr. Steve Moyise suggests using an "umbrella" term for complex interactions between different texts as it is an evocative term. 

 I have chosen this article because it is connected to the topic of my course paper. It was quite useful for me to learn these very types of intertextuality and that the author suggests adding a new term.

 After reading this article, a few questions came to my mind:
Is it really necessary for the scholar to clarify the type of intertextuality they are talking about?
Do other scholars agree with the author of the article?

Lucius D. Battle points out the importance of intellectual revolution in people's lives. The desire to obtain knowledge can be satisfied nowadays with the help of different means, which leads to a new period of cultural and intellectual advance. The author single...
