Reader-Response Theory Texts - Subjective Criticism by David Bleich (1978)

There's no such thing as objective criticism, people, so let's just stop looking for it. At least according to Bleich in this book.

Why is Bleich so opposed to "objective" criticism? Is an objective critical perspective ever possible, according to him?

In what ways does the reader's psychology influence his or her reading of literary texts? What, according to Bleich, is the relationship between psychoanalysis and literary criticism?
