Intertextuality is an important category in Critical Discourse Analysis.At the early stage of the development of intertextuality theory,foreign scholars firstly divide intertextuality into manifest intertextuality and constitutive intertextuality.On this basis,they then argue that intertextuality is not only a powerful tool for social change,but also an important tool for the realisation of power in discourse,and that intertextuality can also effectively reveal the phenomenon of social inequality and injustice implied behind the discourse.Domestic scholars have further advanced the development of intertextuality theory on the basis of foreign scholars're-search,proposing such concepts as specific intertextuality and generic intertextuality,interdiscursivity,and media intertextuality to refine and improve the classification of intertextuality.Research on the theory of inter-textuality done by scholars at home and abroad refracts that intertextuality has the characteristics of mapping inter-discourse relations,diverse forms of expression,and reproducing society,history and culture.In view of the shortcomings of intertextuality such as neglecting the exploration of multimodal discourses and the solidifi-cation of research paradigms,we can adopt the dialectical thinking of invariance and change to revise intertex-tuality;we can also strengthen the theoretical construction of intertextuality from the aspects of theoretical fu-sion and multimodal research paradigms in intertextuality practice.Future research on the practice of intertex-tuality in China should increase the study of linguistically modal Chinese discourses reflecting Chinese culture or social issues,multimodal Chinese discourses and quantitative analysis of large-scale samples.
