Finally, literary theory asks one other important question it asks many, but this is the way at least I'm organizing it for today it asks one other important question, the one with which we will actually begin: not so much "What is a reader?" but "How does reading get done?"

最后，文学理论给人们提出其它重要的问题,它提出许多问题，但我今天是这样组织的,它提出一个重要的问题，也就是我们今天开始要提出的问题：,不是“读者是谁“而是“阅读是如何开展的？“
