Abstract

Arab critics’ definitions of intertextuality are similar to those of Western critics, as they are merely a repetition of them or a translation of previous terms. However, some Arab critics and researchers were able, through their research, to set specific definitions for them, but in the end they flow around one circle, which is intertextuality.

The researchers unanimously agreed that Mikhail Bakhtin was the first to develop the concept of intertextuality, but he used it in a formula with the concept of dialogue; The sources also unanimously agreed that the term intertextuality has a Western origin; But the researcher believes that its origins are Arabic, as it came with the meaning (quote / theft / lending ... etc. ) and each term shows the degree of dependence of the poet on the text quoted from it .
