Abstract
[the] transactional model . . . is based on a multidisciplinary perspective, including literary and social history, philosophy, aesthetics, linguistics, psychology, sociology, and anthropology / this model is driven by the intent to understand readers' encounters with and responses to a wide range of "literary" and "nonliterary" texts / Rosenblatt's view of reading and writing events occurring on an efferent-aesthetic continuum provides important insights into the nature of reader response (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2012 APA, all rights reserved)
