Readers respond to critical claims.

Reader response criticism studies the reading activities of literary works and puts forward a unique reading theory to carry out literary criticism. It holds that (1) the text of literary works is a complete meaning structure, but its meaning is actually the "product" or "creation" of readers; (2) shift the attention of literary criticism from the text of the work to the reader's response, and pay attention to the reader's response to the compound interpretation of the content series of the text of the work; (3) There is no "only correct meaning" in the text of the work, and there is no only correct reading. The consensus and consistency of interpretation of works only exist among some readers under certain conditions; (4) Focus on the analysis of the main factors that form the reader's response, and the relationship between the content provided by the text and the reader's personal "subjective" response. (5) Analyze the reader's reaction with the theory and concept of psychoanalysis as a tool. For example, use the "resistance mechanism" to analyze how to resist the author's influence on him.
