Más información sobre el libro

Intertextuality plays a crucial role in graphic novels, enhancing their ability to reference and represent other texts visually. Alison Bechdel's memoir, "Fun Home," exemplifies this technique with its rich tapestry of pop culture and literary references. The narrative intricately weaves these external stories into Bechdel's own experiences, reflecting her personal struggles during her coming-of-age journey. This seminar paper explores how these literary elements deepen the understanding of her life and the complexities she faces.
