Mechanisms of reading and problems of interpretation

This book starts from a conception of reading and reception based on examining the readings of different Arab critics of modern Saudi poetry, analyzing them, and tracing their reception history that arises from a common collective horizon that indicates the different horizons of reception; where the poetic text is approached by a group of readers who share a set of goals, biases, cultural norms, and critical standards, and a conception also based on looking at the interaction that occurs between the receiving reader and the poetic text, through which we can identify the diverse and multiple patterns of Arab critics' reception of Saudi poetry.
