(The text itself has no meaning until it is read by a reader. The reader creates the meaning. Analysis of the reader's role in the production of meaning makes someone's reading a function of personal identity.) Recognizes that different people view works differently and that people's interpretations change over time. The reader response approach is centered on the belief that a work of literature comes alive when the reader interacts and connects with it, and research explores the influence of the reader response approach to promote text-to-self connections. READER-RESPONSE CRITICISM is a school of literary theory that focuses on the reader and their experience of a literary work, in contrast to other schools and theories that focus attention primarily on the author or the content and form of the work. Remember In reader-response, the reader is essential to the meaning of a text for they bring the text to life. The purpose of a reading response is examining, explaining, and defending your personal reaction to a text. 10 Downloaded by Angelica Petil ([email protected])
