Abstract

Due to overexposure to technology, teaching literature to teenagers has become a pedagogical challenge in today’s educational context. This article proposes a method to bridge the gap between readers and texts by using literary and non-literary resources as an approach to intertextuality2. This method will be explained by using American writer Edgar Allan Poe’s works “The Fall of the House of Usher” (1839), “The Tell-Tale Heart” (1843) and “The Raven” (1845).
