Abstract:
تبحث هذه المقالة في نظريةُ التلقي واستجابة القارئَ النقدية التي ما تزال ضرورية حتى وقتنا هذا في بداية القرنِ الحادي والعشرينِ، العصر المفعم بثقافةِ الإنترنتِ التي تفترضُ أن المعلوماتِ يُمْكِنُ أَنْ تُستَرجعَ مِنْ الكُتُبِ أَو الحاسباتِ، إذ لايزال الإنسان المورِّد الأول للمعاني في العمليةِ الديناميةِ للتفسيرِ بدلاً مِنْ أنْ يكُونَ مجرد متلقي سلبي لها. ومن الواضح جداً أن فهمَ القارئ لأي عمل أدبي يُقرّرُ تشكيلَ ذلك العمل، وستبقى الطريقة التي نستقبل فيها النص الأدبي هي السائدة وكذلك كيف يؤثر النص فينا وكَيفَ يُصبح القراء الكُتّاب الحقيقيين للنصوصِ التي يقَرأونها. تكشف هذه المقالةِ خفايا قوَّةِ القارئِ في النَصِّ ومجمل ديناميةِ عملية القراءة نفسها، وكَيف تتم عملية صياغة المعاني وإعادة صياغتها مرات ومرات مِن قِبل القرّاءِ. ومن خلال إعادة قراءة العديد مِنْ أصحاب مدرسة التلقي ومنظريها في القرن العشرين، فإن هذه المقالة تدرس مدى انغماس القارئ في التعامل البيني مع النص، ويؤدي كلا الطرفين دوراً هاماً في عملية القراءة التفسيريةِ للنص، حيث أعطي القارئ درجة كبيرة مِنْ المشاركةِ بالنَصِّ، وأن القارئَ منفتحُ ومرنُ وتحرّريُ، مستعد أن يضع اعتقاداته الخاصة أَو اعتقادات مجتمعه في بوتقة الفحص والاستجواب وحتى التحول. فالقراءة، إذاً، عملية متغيّرة ومسألة معقّدة التي تَقْبلُ العراقيلَ والتنافرَ الموجودة أصلاً في النص الأدبي. فإن الدور المحوري للقارئِ ونظريةِ التلقي إذاً لا غنى عنها لفَهْم أي نصّ أدبي وكذلك لفهم علاقتَه بالحياة. تُجيبُ هذه المقالةِ أخيراً عن السؤالِ الذي يطرح ذاته: كيف تمكنت كل تلك النظرياتِ المُخْتَلِفةِ من تَشْذيب اختلافاتها والتقت معاً في إنْتاج الزخم الكافي لحريةِ القارئِ، وكيف أصبحت القراءة والتحليل النصي اليوم تجربةَ جماليةَ بالإضافة إلى كونها مسعى سياسي واجتماعي يتفاعل في وعي القارئِ والنص، وعملية المواكبة للعملية الإبداعية أصلاً.

Abstract:
What has come to be called reader-response criticism and theory was ascendant within literary studies in the 1970s and eighties but seems to have waned in the nineties. Edited collections such as Susan Suleiman and Inge Crosman's The Reader in the Text and Jane Tompkins's Reader-Response Criticism, both published in 1980, continue to be important references and are still cited frequently. Comparable edited collections published in the nineties, though, such as James Machor's Readers in History (1993) and Andrew Bennett's Readers and Reading (1995) have not received the attention of the earlier collections, and most of the essays in Readers and Reading are reprints of articles published in the eighties. Individuals associated with the reader-response movement such as Stanley Fish, David Bleich, Norman Holland, and Wolfgang Iser continue to publish books, although these books do not necessarily focus on reading. The journal that I co-edit, Reader, which originated as a newsletter in 1976 as a result of an MLA session on reading that attracted hundreds of people, continues. It remains, though, one of a small number of journals devoted to reading and readers aimed at a university-level audience.

Abstract:
Formerly, to be a radical teacher one had to be a Marxist, but in the past three years, a simple commitment to honesty, empathy, and democratic community has become an act of resistance. Examining three examples of reader-response criticism suggests how one can apply these values to deepen receptivity to literature and create a sense of agency and dialogue between students and teachers.

Abstract:
My article provides historical background to stylisticians’ current interest in empirical approaches to literary response by investigating the practical criticism experiment that IA Richards carried out in the 1920s and that he reported on in Practical Criticism: A Study of Literary Judgment (1929). In literary studies, practical criticism is typically regarded as a method of reading that focuses on the text itself and that isolates the text from its social and historical context. Yet, Richards’ technique of issuing his student audiences with anonymized and unknown poems, and asking them for their written responses (or ‘protocols’), was explicitly part of a psychological experiment and not a model of how we should, or even could, read literature. And he was primarily – if not exclusively – interested in the responses of his readers to the poem and not in the poem itself. I have argued that Richards’ technique of practical criticism was the very first large-scale experiment in psychology conducted to discover how real readers understand, interpret and evaluate literary texts. As such, the experiment anticipated the relatively recent turn among stylisticians towards empirical research, and might still be able to inform that research. In this article, I compare Richards’ experiment with the psychological and aesthetic experiments that had been conducted beforehand. I then describe in detail what Richards actually did in his experiment, and assess the strengths and weaknesses of his methodology. Finally, I assess some of the ways in which Richards’ experiment might inform empirical research in stylistics today.

Abstract:
The Reader-Response Criticism theory holds that the major objective of literary criticism is to study readers' reading experience and attach importance to readers' subjective initiative in the reading process. When interpreting Western visual poetry, Peter Barry gives full play to his subjective initiative, divides visual poetry into three types, and expounds the connotation of visual poetry and the generating of poetic text meaning. This paper aims to comment on Peter Barry's interpretation and comments on visual poetry in "Concrete Canticles", and to reveal the connotation of poetic criticism combined with reader-response criticism theory.

Nestor, Mary Catherine. "Adapting the great unknown : the evolving perception of Walter Scott." Thesis, University of Aberdeen, 2016. http://digitool.abdn.ac.uk:80/webclient/DeliveryManager?pid=230931.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis explores the legacy of Walter Scott through analysis of the adaptations of his works. It argues that remediations of Scott's novels and poetry have shaped the conception of those works in the popular imagination and resulted in an understanding of Scott's writing which overlooks it[s] complexities. In addition, it suggests that as a by-product of the process of adaptation a very small percentage of Scott's works have come to represent the whole. This thesis examines the development of the current gap between the critical rejuvenation of Scott's legacy by the scholarly community and his continued denigration in popular culture, contending that the popular remediation of Scott's works over the course of the last two centuries contributed to the formation of this gap in perception. It also poses [i.e. posits] that adaptation provided fodder for the popular notions that his writing glorifies tartanry, chivalry and pageantry, has imposed a false version of history and culture on the people of Scotland, and is best left in the category of 'boys' adventure tales'. Furthermore, this thesis interrogates claims that Scott has no relevance for contemporary readers and has become what memory theorist Ann Rigney terms the 'Great Unknown'. While adaptations from the nineteenth century have been reasonably well documented, this thesis explores not only early dramatisations of Scott's works but also a plethora of twentieth-century remediations, including film, television, comic book, mass-market science-fiction and children's adaptations, which demonstrate that popular engagement with Scott did not end with the start of the First World War. This thesis concludes that, while Scott's readership may indeed have declined from its peak in the late nineteenth century, he still maintains a place in popular consciousness and is not as greatly forgotten as some have argued.
