Spoiler Alert-Writing Challenge: How Speak No Evil Uses Recontextualization
Taking a thing with an established meaning and giving it a new and different meaning is to recontextualize that thing. For instance, in a general context the sun is contextualized as daylight and warmth. But in the universe of the legendary vampire, Dracula, the sun means danger and death. Media about vampire characters has successfully recontextualized the sun. Characters in a vampire movie seek the sun not merely for its actual context but as a way of defeating or, at the very least, delaying the monster seeking to destroy them.
