• Abstract:

  The general concept of intertextuality concerns the relationship between texts, which establish a type of dialogue between themselves, whether intentional or not. Therefore, this work was developed for research purposes on how intertextuality can be used in the classroom and how it is important for the creation and understanding of texts. Understanding that intertextuality is a reference for determining the linguistic resources to be used, it provides support for adapting the text to its occurrence situations. It can be seen that there are an infinite number of genres that use this textual resource. In this way, an author can use, within his production, a reference to another text, whether implicitly or explicitly. As with cohesion or coherence, intertextuality is part of the constituent parameters of a text, becoming an element of great importance.
