Grade 8 Quiz Intertextual Analysis – RL.8.9
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.8.9 focuses on analyzing intertextuality in modern fiction, particularly how these texts draw upon ancient myths, traditional narratives, or religious texts like the Bible. Students delve into how contemporary authors might reinvent, allude to, or diverge from these classic tales, themes, or characters, thereby rendering the material “new” while still anchored in literary tradition.
