Each response should
describe the key aspects of the text as well as introduce a set of questions that help you to
critically reflect on it. Thus, a response has to include your critically developed views on the text.
The latter should not simply be your subjective opinion about it whether you like them or not,
for example, or whether you agree with them or not but should critically discuss the
specificities of these aspects. You can find instances of responses from the texts that we are
reading in class. Their authors oftentimes describe a text to then develop a new set of critical
approaches to it.
