1. A process that extracts text, signs or meaning from its original context (decontextualization) in order to introduce it into another context.

Recontextualization at three different levels: 1) Intratextual 2) Intertextual 3) Interdiscursive.
2. The dynamic transfer-and-transformation of something from one discourse/text-in-context...to another.
