Using the 180-year history of John Keats's "The Eve of St. Agnes" as a basis for theorizing about the reading process, this book explores the nature and whereabouts of "meaning" in complex works.
Using the 180-year history of Keats''s Eve of St. Agnes as a basis for theorizing about the reading process, Stillinger''s book explores the nature and whereabouts of `meaning'' in complex works. A proponent of authorial intent, Stillinger argues a theoretical compromise between author and reader, applying a theory of interpretive democracy tha includes the endlessly multifarious reader''s response as well as Keats''s guessed-at intent. Stillinger also ruminates on the process of constructing meaning, and posits an answer to why Keats''s work is considered canonical, and why it is still being read and admired.
