The concept of intertextuality within the framework of poststructuralist philosophy as one of the key categories that reflect the cultural consciousness of the second half of the 19th and 20th centuries was examined in the paper. The significance of intertextuality determines the relevance of the chosen topic as a crucial mechanism of intercultural dialogue. Today, intertextuality can serve as a means of preserving and developing a nation’s cultural heritage as well as being instrument of cross-cultural synergy. The research aim was to identify the shared function of intertextuality in both European and Asian traditions; to compare the of intertextuality through the works of Thomas Eliot and Bakytzhan Momyshuly, which works are seen as preservation and development of cultural traditions. The main research findings authenticate intertextuality as a method of intercultural dialogue. It was established that in B. Momyshuly’s works, intertextuality integrated Kazakh literature into the global literary context, emphasizing its uniqueness and multidimensionality. The scientific novelty of the study lies in the first-ever comparative analysis of the European and Asian traditions of intertextuality, proposing a new approach to their interpretation. The study defines intertextuality in B. Momyshuly’s works to reveal its connection with Kazakh historical and cultural tradition and world literature. The research also explores the specifics of intertextual elements in Kazakh literature, mainly through allusions, reminiscences, and references to folklore, mythology, and philosophy
