Harold Bloom, the prominent Yale critic, has been noteworthy for his incorporation of Freudian conceptions of defense mechanisms into the realm of Reader Response Theory. He came up with the idea of “ Anxiety of Influence” which defied the hitherto notion of influence that it is direct borrowing or assimilation of materials from earlier writers.Bloom calls a poet a ‘belated’ one or “ephebe”, who is motivated to compose a poem when his imagination is seized upon by a precursor’s poem. The “ephebe’ has an Oedipal relationship with his/her precursor, a relationship ambivalent, mixed with admiration, hate, envy and fear of the precursor’s encroachment into the belated’s imaginative space. While reading the precursor’s poem, the ephebe distorts it drastically, due to Anxiety of Influence. The struggle of Wordsworth with Milton, Shelley with Wordsworth, and Wallace Steevens with Whitman, are some of the instances given by Bloom. This concept could be related to T.S. Eliot’s idea of “Tradition.” Bloom Points out six revisionary ratios by which one read precursor’s poem (clinamen, tessera, kenosis, daemonization, askesis and apophrades); he also holds that even the best belated poets can only create a “strong” poem that forms an illusion of originality; all readings are, hence, misreadings or misprisions. Antithetical criticism means criticism in terms of misreadings that are contrary to what the poet thought. a b McLane, Maureen (March 21, 1999). "Stanley Fish: Paradox 101". Chicago Tribune .

They are also prolific breeders, so be prepared for an increase in population if you decide to keep them in your aquarium. Swordtails are a popular freshwater aquarium fish that are livebearers like guppies and mollies. They are easy to identify due to the sword-like tails of male fish, while female fish can also be quite colorful. Fragoulaki, Maria (2013).

Molly fish are live-bearers, like Guppies, and freely reproduce in aquariums. However, it is important to note that they can be aggressive towards their own species, so it is advisable to keep them in a tank with other calm species like tetras and Cory catfish. Overall, rasboras are a great addition to any freshwater aquarium due to their peaceful nature, vibrant colors, and ease of care. 16. Gourami Classic reader-response critics include Norman Holland, Stanley Fish, Wolfgang Iser, Hans-Robert Jauss, [3] and Roland Barthes. [ citation needed] Important predecessors were I. A. Richards, who in 1929 analyzed a group of Cambridge undergraduates' misreadings; and Louise Rosenblatt, who, in Literature as Exploration (1938), argued that it is important for the teacher to avoid imposing any "preconceived notions about the proper way to react to any work".Dwarf cichlids are peaceful fish that can be kept in groups, but it’s recommended to keep only one male in a tank to avoid aggression.
