The manifestations of the implicit reader in the story of the tilted palm tree by Muhammad Ali Taha

Abstract

The reception theory arose as a modern critical method, stemming from its belief in the role of the active reader in being an active participant in the construction of the literary work, in violation of some other critical theories that neglected the role of the recipient, making him an external (passive) participant, which contributes to killing creativity in the recipient and the work Both; Therefore, the theory focused on his role, distinguishing between the implicit reader and other readers. deals with the implicit reader, its impact, and then its role in shaping the text or literary work again according to what his visions require, so that he is thus a participant in the creative work; It enriches it to the extent of its interaction with the text, and to the extent of the success of the text in reaching the reader. Research Methodology: The researcher adopted the descriptive, analytical, and interpretive method, due to the research’s reliance on the theory of interpretation, taking from our Palestinian literature as a model for her belief that a large part of this literature did not receive much attention and study, with regard to our local writers from the occupied Palestinian interior. The Palestinian, Muhammad Ali Taha, is an applied model for its study.
