How can someone have unique ideas? Isn't everything a mix of ideas other people have gotten from the people before them and so on.
Also, assuming that all ideas are based on preexisting ones, was the ''first'' idea God/The All?
Does perceived uniqueness stem from the lack of knowledge of its ideological predecessors?

What can I read for this feel?

Theories of intertextuality suggest that meaning in a text can only ever be understood in relation to other texts; no work stands alone but is interlinked with the tradition that came before it and the context in which it is produced.

Read some Roland Barthes
