Deleção de identidade pessoal e ideológica no romance ‘A Mina Liza’ por Orly Castel-Bloom

Abstract

The purpose of this article is to show the special use of intertextuality in the novel ‘The Mina Liza’ by Castel-Bloom. Few examples of allusions to clichés - expressions, themes and cultural presuppositions well known - will be analyzed. This way of elaborating dialogue between the current text and cultural clichés, resulting in parody, this means that the text mocks and criticizes itself. Thus every idea and every subject, including Mina’s journey  in search of her identity, is being disintegrated and empty of  its meaning.
