Critical approaches to literature analyze works through different lenses or mindsets. New Criticism examines only what is in the text, while reader-response criticism studies the reader's interaction with the text. Biographical criticism relates the author's life to their work, and narratological criticism analyzes the narrative structure and point of view. Historical criticism reflects the period a work was produced/read, and social criticism recognizes literature as reflecting social environments. Gender/feminist criticism addresses issues of masculinity, femininity, and differences between sexes.

Understanding Reading Approaches: A Comprehensive Exploration
Introduction
Reading is a fundamental skill that opens doors to knowledge, imagination, and understanding. It is not merely the act of decoding words but a complex cognitive process that involves comprehension, interpretation, and critical thinking. Over time, scholars, educators, and researchers have developed various approaches to understanding and teaching reading, each with its theories, methodologies, and philosophies. In this comprehensive exploration, we delve into the diverse reading approaches, examining their principles, techniques, and applications.
Historical Perspectives
The history of reading approaches is deeply intertwined with the evolution of education and literacy. From ancient civilizations to modern times, societies have developed different methods for teaching and learning to read. Early reading approaches often focused on rote memorization and recitation, with religious texts playing a central role in many cultures. As societies progressed, the emphasis shifted towards phonics-based instruction, which teaches students to decode words by recognizing letter-sound relationships.
During the 20th century, significant advancements in psychology and education gave rise to new theories of reading. Behaviorism, spearheaded by psychologists such as B.F. Skinner, emphasized the role of reinforcement and conditioning in learning to read. The cognitive revolution of the 1960s and 1970s brought attention to mental processes involved in reading, leading to the development of cognitive strategies approaches. These approaches emphasized the importance of metacognition, or thinking about one's thinking, in reading comprehension.
Traditional Approaches
Traditional reading approaches, such as phonics and whole language, have long been at the center of debates in education. Phonics instruction focuses on teaching students the relationship between letters and sounds, enabling them to decode words systematically. Proponents argue that phonics provides essential foundational skills for reading fluency and comprehension. However, critics contend that it may lead to overly mechanical reading and fail to address higher-level comprehension skills.
On the other hand, the whole language approach advocates for immersion in authentic reading experiences, where students learn to read by engaging with real texts in meaningful contexts. This approach emphasizes comprehension and meaning-making over decoding skills. Advocates argue that whole language fosters a love of reading and develops students' natural language acquisition abilities. However, critics argue that it may neglect explicit instruction in phonics and leave struggling readers behind.
Emerging Approaches
In recent decades, new approaches to reading instruction have emerged in response to changing educational paradigms and research findings. Balanced literacy, for example, seeks to integrate the best elements of phonics and w

Literary criticism is the analysis, interpretation and evaluation of literature. It involves examining how elements like theme, style and context contribute to the meaning and value of a literary work. Literary critics publish their analyses in essays, books and journals to interpret and debate the merit of different works and authors. There are various approaches to literary criticism, including formalist, historical, reader-response and intertextual analysis, which focus on different aspects like the text itself, the author/time period, the reader experience or comparisons to other works. Understanding different critical perspectives can provide insight into literature and ideas from different points of view.

Critical Approaches: Types of Literary Criticism
The document discusses different approaches to literary criticism including formalist criticism, which examines the internal elements of a work like form and structure, deconstructionist criticism, which argues that language is unstable and meaning depends on opposition, and reader-response criticism, which views meaning as constructed through the interaction between reader and text rather than imposed by the author alone. Formalism looks at the work in isolation while deconstruction and reader-response theories emphasize the role of external contexts and the reader's interpretation. The different approaches analyze texts through different lenses and priorities.

This presentation covers the basics concept of literary criticism. It covers some important points and interesting aspects of literary criticism and it's theory.
Literary criticism
Reader response criticism focuses on the reader's role in interpreting texts rather than searching for a single inherent meaning. It holds that individual readers create their own meanings through personal transactions with the text based on their own experiences and backgrounds. Key aspects of reader response criticism include the horizons of expectations that readers bring, the implied reader envisioned by the author, and interpretive communities that readers belong to. However, some argue it fails to account for how texts can expand understanding and is too subjective.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Critical Approaches to Literature2.ppt
- 2. Critical Approaches -used to analyze, question, interpret, synthesize and evaluate literary works, with a specific mindset or “lenses”
- 3. New Criticism -contend that literature needs little or no connection with the author’s intentions, life, or social/historical situation -everything needed to analyze the work is contained within the text -examines language and literary conventions; plot, rhyme, meter, dialect, setting, point of view, etc.
- 4. Reader-Response Criticism -studies the interaction of the reader with the text; holds the text incomplete until it is read -examines the readers reactions and thoughts to a piece of work
- 5. Biographical Criticism -relates the author’s life and thoughts to their work -allows one to better understand the elements within a work as well as relate works to authorial intention and audience
- 6. Narratological Criticism -concerns itself with the structure of narrative; how events are constructed and through what point of view -considers the narrator not necessarily as a person, but more as a window through which one sees a constructed reality
- 7. Historical Criticism -perspectives tend to reflect a concern with the period in which a text is produced and/or read
- 8. Social Criticism -recognizes literature as a reflection of the environment through analysis of social structure, power, politics, and agency
- 9. Gender/Feminist Criticism -addresses issues of masculinity and femininity as binaries, sexual orientation, heterosexism, and differences in sexes
- 10. Anthropological Criticism -focuses on aspects of everyday life in various cultures; using ideas of folklore, ritual, celebrations, traditions, etc.
- 11. Psychoanalytical Criticism -aims at uncovering the workings of the human mind especially that expression of the unconscious -analyzing a text like a dream, looking for symbolism and repressed meaning, the dominance of unconscious mine of the conscious -can be applied to either the author/text relationship or the reader/text relationship
