The Reader, the Text, the Poem by Louise M Rosenblatt
A deep understanding of the pragmatism of Dewey, James, and Peirce and of key issues in the social sciences is the basis for a view of language and the reading process that recognises the potentialities for alternative interpretations and at the same time provides a rationale for the responsible reading of texts.
