CONTEXT OF TEXT DEVELOPMENT
The way writers shape their texts is
dramatically influenced by their
CONTEXT. Writers decide how to shape
their sentences by considering their
contexts.
CONTEXT
is important as a foundation for the author
in constructing his/her written text. This
includes how the writer has researched
the topic and how he/she organized the
content
CONTEXT
defined as the social, cultural, political,
historical and other related
circumstances that surround the text and
from the terms from which it can be better
understood evaluated.

reader’s thoughts and feelings about the document?
Does the intellectual content of the document rest on the
shoulders of other authors?
What background information can you assume your reader is
already familiar with?
questions on the analysis

CONTEXT OF TEXT DEVELOPMENT
HYPERTEXT
INTERTEXTUALITY
HYPERTEXT
is simply a non-linear
way of presenting
information.
HYPERTEXT
Rather than reading or learning about things
in the order that an author, or editor, or
publisher sets out for us, readers of hypertext
may follow their own path, create their own
order – their own meaning out the material
HYPERTEXT
This is accomplished by creating “links”
between information. This information appears
as links and is usually accessed by clicking. The
reader can jump to more information about a
topic, which in turn may have more links.
HYPERTEXT
is text which contains links to other texts
The term was coined by Ted Nelson in 1965.
It is when you type a word and attach a link
to that word so that upon clicking on that
word, the reader is sent to the site attached.
HYPERTEXT
is the foundation of the World Wide Web
enabling users to click on link to obtain more
information on a subsequent page on the
same site or from website anywhere in the
world.
HYPERTEXT
Hypertext materials include pictures, video
materials animated and audio illustrations.
Hypertext connects topic on a screen to
related information, graphics, videos, and
music – information is not simply related to
text.
HYPERTEXT
A reader can skim through
sections of a text, freely jumping
from one part to another
depending on what aspect of
the text interests him/her
HYPERTEXT
you are given more flexibility and
personalization because you get
to select the order in which you
read the text and focus on
information that is relevant to your
background and interests.
HYPERTEXT
although opens up to a wide
variety of mostly irrelevant
information, gives the reader the
free will to personalize his or her
analysis of the text
HYPERTEXT
HYPERTEXT
words or clusters of words that are underlined
and are in blue
is a new way of reading a text online. It collects
every available data but this exhaustive
inclusion exposes the reader to a wealth of
irrelevant material
When reading, the readers try
to make meaning of the
material that they are
absorbing through many
different processes.
Unintentionally, sometimes,
the patterns in the materials
read are apparent in another
text.
INTERTEXTUALITY
the modeling of a text’s meaning by
another text.
defined as the connections between
language, images, characters, themes, or
subjects depending on their similarities in
language, genre and discourse.
INTERTEXTUALITY
is the relationship between texts and how
culture and other writers influence a text
it makes a text contain a wide
accumulation of cultural, historical and
social knowledge
INTERTEXTUALITY
as a literary device, “is the complex interrelationship
between a text and other texts taken as fundamental
to the creation and interpretation of the text”
It underscores the main point/s of the text by making
explicit those data that are only implied or
presupposed in the text, thus defining their relevance.
INTERTEXTUALITY
Intertextuality does not require citing or
referencing punctuation (such as
punctuation marks) an dis often mistaken for
plagiarism.
INTERTEXTUALITY
EXAMPLES:
He was lying obviously, you could almost see his nose
growing.
He’s asking her to the prom. It’s like the happy version
of Romeo and Juliet.
You know what? I was late again. Hi. It's me.
Work hard because it’s not like you’re gonna wait for
a guava to fall on your head.
