THE INTERTEXTUAL NATURE OF SYMBOLS IN DAN BROWN'S NOVELS
The Da Vinci Code epitomizes postmodern fiction by subverting grand narratives, mixing fact with fiction, and engaging readers in reinterpretations of history and religion. Through genre blending, intertextuality, and ambiguity, Dan Brown destabilizes fixed truths, aligning with postmodernism’s critique of authority and embrace of pluralism. The novel’s open-ended discourse reflects the postmodern view that meaning is constructed, contested, and inherently fluid.
