First sentence: For the most part, reception theorists, who include Tony Bennett, Stanley Fish, Hans Robert Jauss, and Steven Mailloux, claim that the interpretive activities of readers-formal, historical, authorial, Derridean, feminist, Marxist, and so on-explain a text's significance and aesthetic value.
