Jung, CW14, pp. 555-6. 45. 'Intertextuality' is used here in the Kristevan sense. By 'intertextu ality' I refer to the idea that texts of all kinds do not function as closed systems but operate within the socio-political context of their production, are generated from the writer's encounter with other texts and received through the reader's previous experience of texts. For a thorough discussion of Kristeva's intertextuality, see the intro duction to Intertextuality: Theories and Practices, edited by Michael Worton and Judith Still (Manchester and New York: Manchester University Press, 1990), pp. 1-44. 46.
