<br/><br/> All interpretive systems deal with the author. Modern systems consider the text to be autonomous, so that it is disconnected from the author&#x92;s interests. In this book, Eric Douglass reconsiders this connection. His central argument is that the author is a subject who reproduces her culture and her subjectivity in the text. As the author reproduces her subjectivity, the text functions as the author&#x92;s voice. This allows Douglass to apply ethical principles to interpretation, where that voice is treated as a subject for conversation, and not an object for manipulation. He uses this to texture the reading process, so that an initial reading takes account of the author&#x92;s communication, while a second reading critiques that communication.
