THEORIES OF TRANSTEXTUALITY IN RICK RIORDAN’S LITERATURE
Keywords:
transtextual themes, Rick Riordan’s literature, Percy Jackson, heroism, fate, identity, and morality, the narrative structure, critical commentary.Abstract
The article delves into the transtextual themes present in Rick Riordan’s literature, particularly his mythologically inspired works such as Percy Jackson & the Olympians. The article highlights how Riordan modernizes ancient themes like heroism, fate, identity, and morality, adapting them for a contemporary young-adult audience. It also discusses the narrative structure of his novels, which reworks mythological quests into modern, action-driven plots, while preserving the philosophical and ethical dilemmas of ancient myths. By engaging in a dialogue with classical sources, Riordan’s literature not only revitalizes these myths but also adds layers of critical commentary on their relevance to today's readers.
