A strong character voice also appeals to readers. Readers care about characters so a hook that introduces an interesting main character encourages us to read further as we try to find out more about the character, their world views and how they act in different situations. Louise Rosenblatt, asserts that meaning is produced in transaction of a reader with a text. As an approach, then, the critic would consider “how the reader interprets the text as well as how the text produces a response in him/ her.” There are multiple approaches within the theoretical branch of reader-response criticism, yet all are unified in their belief that the meaning of a text is derived from the reader through the reading process. [5] Lois Tyson classified the variations into five recognized reader-response criticism approaches whilst warning that categorizing reader-response theorists explicitly invites difficulty due to their overlapping beliefs and practices. [6] Transactional reader-response theory, led by Louise Rosenblatt and supported by Wolfgang Iser, involves a transaction between the text's inferred meaning and the individual interpretation by the reader influenced by their personal emotions and knowledge. [6] Affective stylistics, established by Fish, believe that a text can only come into existence as it is read; therefore, a text cannot have meaning independent of the reader. [6] Subjective reader-response theory, associated with David Bleich, looks entirely to the reader's response for literary meaning as individual written responses to a text are then compared to other individual interpretations to find continuity of meaning. [6] Psychological reader-response theory, employed by Norman Holland, believes that a reader's motives heavily affect how they read, and subsequently use this reading to analyze the psychological response of the reader. [6] Social reader-response theory is Stanley Fish's extension of his earlier work, stating that any individual interpretation of a text is created in an interpretive community of minds consisting of participants who share a specific reading and interpretation strategy. [6] In all interpretive communities, readers are predisposed to a particular form of interpretation as a consequence of strategies used at the time of reading. [6]

To reader-response based theorists, however, reading is always both subjective and objective. Some reader-response critics (uniformists) assume a bi-active model of reading: the literary work controls part of the response and the reader controls part. Others, who see that position as internally contradictory, claim that the reader controls the whole transaction (individualists). In such a reader-active model, readers and audiences use amateur or professional procedures for reading (shared by many others) as well as their personal issues and values. Finding the best pH meter with high accuracy is definitely a pain in the ass. We have personally used a lot of aquarium pH meters, some of them were useful but the rest were totally pieces of junk. The main purpose of today’s post is to provide our readers with the top 10 best pH meters for your aquariums and fish tanks. The title essay and an additional essay, "Jerry Falwell's Mother," focus on free speech issues. In the latter piece, Fish argues that, if one has some answer in mind to the question "what is free speech good for?" along the lines of "in the free and open clash of viewpoints the truth can more readily be known," then it makes no sense to defend deliberate malicious libel (such as that which was at issue in the U.S. Supreme Court case of Hustler Magazine v. Falwell) in the name of "free speech." Norman Holland makes use of psychoanalytic analysis of the process of reading. He viewed the subject matter of a work as the projection of the fantasies that constitute the identity of its author. To him, reading is the encounter between the author’s and the reader’s fantasies; the reader transforms the fantasy content, that constitutes the process of tnterpretation. He also declared that there is no universally determinate meaning of a particular text Another objection to reader-response criticism is that it fails to account for the text being able to expand the reader's understanding. While readers can and do put their own ideas and experiences into a work, they are at the same time gaining new understanding through the text. This is something that is generally overlooked in reader-response criticism. [ citation needed] Extensions [ edit ]Owen, J. Judd. Religion and the Demise of Liberal Rationalism.

Discus Fish require their water to be warmer than most other species, making it difficult to maintain them with other fish. Iser's approach to reading has been adopted by several New Testament critics, including Culpepper 1983, [19] Scott 1989, [20] Roth 1997, [21] Darr 1992, 1998, [22] Fowler 1991, 2008, [23] Howell 1990, [24] Kurz 1993, [25] and Powell 2001.

Barb fish are a great option for fish owners looking for schooling and energetic fish for a community aquarium. While most species remain between two and three inches long, others like the tinfoil Barb can get rather large. Mark Allan Powell, Chasing the Eastern Star: Adventures in Biblical Reader-Response Criticism (Louisville: Westminster John Knox, 2001) Platyfish come in a variety of colors, with orange being a popular choice. Some of the common types of platyfish include the sunset and wagtail platy.

Goldfish are one of the most common freshwater aquarium fish species. They have been preserved for decades, and there are several strange and unique breeds of this common fish.
