As opposed to the take after nineteenth century Christian liberals in seeing these archaic beliefs as a shell to be mixed while protecting the bits of the parenthood of God and the extensive civilization of manhood‚ Bultmann thinks of them as myths to decrypt

    New Criticism VS Reader-Response Criticism What is more accurate‚ new criticism or reader response criticism? The answer is neither‚ seeing as both styles of critic views and analyzes the topic at hand and gives feedback. Though both styles offer feedback‚ they are different forms of feedback entirely.

    Gladwell Criticism

    • 865 Words
    • 4 Pages

    Let’s get this straight first. I actually applaud Malcolm Gladwell for writing his book Outliers. His theories throughout the book touched ideas that I wouldn’t even begin to think about or question. He gave support for his theories and spent a lot of time describing occurrences that seemed to prove them (as you can guess I’m a bit skeptical about some). I actually enjoyed reading once I got myself to actually focus and read. You see‚ it’s not the type of book that you don’t want to put down;

    I am delving into the complex and semiotic nature of deconstruction critism as a lens for the book Persepolis. I will be analyzing how the creators own words twist back against them‚ and gainsay what they previously said. I will use this lens is unearth the binary opposition of values or aphorisms in this book. I will overturn all manifestations of hypocrisy in all discourses from viewpoints on religion‚ and society to gender roles and sex. My credibility comes from my years of experience of deconstructing
